    iPhone in-car charger/holder

    Can anyone offer any recommendations on which iPhone car charger/holder to purchase? I like using the "locate me" function on Google Maps to help me take shortcuts through traffic. Now this is pretty hard to do safely with it on my dashboard or on my knee :) So I figured I need a car holder...

    Anyone offer any advice on the best RSS feed reader for the iPhone. Im ideally looking for something which will keep what is read/unread between my iPhone and my MacBook. I have tried NetNewswire for my iPhone but I am not impressed by the interface design. Thanks

    Random Change of Password?

    If you have NAT on your router I doubt anybody brute forced your SSH login. Once you gain access take a look at your auth.log file (IIRC) and look for any failures. Be carful though, if it has been hacked you could have a rootkit or something along those lines, in which case it is probably best...

    What IT positions can't be OS?

    Bt Apprenticeship Interview

    Im an ex BT apprentice, joined in 2001. The opportunity and salary is pretty good, I would definitely recommend it to anyone. The apprenticeship scheme has greatly been improved compared to when I did it, back then it was a mixed bag. Funny thing is I am due to leave BT this Friday.

    Selling metal to a scrap yard...

    Big money in scrap metal. Everyday we have at least two vans come down our street scavenging any old crap out of peoples skips. Its crazy they take anything from old washing lines to old car parts.
