	I ended up writing my own after finding that Yahoo! offer a free developers&#8217; weather service here: http://developer.yahoo.com/weather.

		<description><![CDATA[	First, a lesson in the real implementation of cron&#8230;
	The crontab command, found in Unix operating systems, is used to schedule commands to be executed periodically.  It reads commands and collects them into a file also known as a &#8220;crontab&#8221; which is later read by the operating system which carries out the instructions contained within.

		<description><![CDATA[	The other day Colin made a valid point about input button cursors.  As most of us know, by default they are arrow cursors - but he said they should be pointing fingers, like hyperlinks are.  I told him that changing them goes against web conventions (even Google uses arrows I said) and &#8220;Krug [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	With the release of IE7 and Firefox 2.0 recently, I wondered how this would effect browser statistics.  This following statistics table is taken from webreference.com; and is therefore probably more bias given their &#8220;developer&#8221; visitor base - who tend to upgrade software more often.  That said, it still makes for interesting reading:

		<description><![CDATA[	In CSS, if you have ever worked with background-image rollovers, you will no doubt have found that Internet Explorer 6 tends to flicker when using &#8220;a:hover&#8221;.  
	After researching, the best way to combat this is to use an external javascript file in your  section, like so:
	&#60;script type="text/javascript" src="/js/common.js"&#62;&#60;/script&#62;
	Then in common.js, use the following [...]]]></description>
