		<title>Hacked Wordpress Recovery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Interesting to see this post from WP developer Donnacha, on removing various popular nasties from a wordpress install after it has been hacked or compromised.

		<title>Easier updating with Wordpress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been pleased to see the inclusion of an update warning in recent versions of Wordpress when new versions are released.

		<title>Whatever happened to Anonym.OS?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Roll your mind back to the beginning of 2006 and you might remember Anonym.OS the idea of which was that you could pop a CD into your coffee cup holder, reboot and have nice (relatively) secure and anonymous browsing via TOR in a nice locked down BSD session.  My mind is a little hazy on [...]]]></description>
