		<description><![CDATA[Commercially there is a market for tablet devices as 'a method to access live data' stored elsewhere. Even, as devices to replace conventional till systems, goods inwards/outbound etc with the right software, of course but and whilst I could be terribly wrong, I suspect the 'fizz' will go out of tablets within a couple of years but touch screen mobile phones will prosper. The real question being will Microsoft prosper in that market ? Even for Apple, what will happen to them if the bottom drops out of the tablet market ?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was amused by an article in The Economist about Internet Dating and worth a read: http://www.economist.com/node/21547217. Obviously with us about to hit St Valentine&#8217;s Day, the topic is “topical”. I must own up and say that for me, Valentine&#8217;s Day is up there with New Year&#8217;s Eve as one of those occasions that is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[whilst we do have an apparently young IT literate workforce who are very comfortable with the type of applications and devices they are used to all of which like Facebook and Twitter are both the province of the seriously dumb, the business applications they use and have access to will be increasingly designed to de-skill their actual jobs because in a business sense, they are “truly illiterate”.]]></description>

Very few topics require a degree of any kind, they do require a thorough understanding of of how things work be they databases, network servers and routing devices, security models, internet protocols, anti-hacking strategies, electronic housekeeping..]]></description>

We are moving into an increasingly diverse “computing environment” based upon internet connectivity. It is the internet connection as a conduit for sending and receiving messages (data), that has become important, not the device that has that connectivity.]]></description>
