Work Is All A Go

Have been busy at work since the beginning of the year. I have been taking part in a “Proof Of Concept” with a Palo Alto Firewall.
I have been trying to see if, the URL filtering, built into the PA, is any better & possibly cheaper than the Websense appliance already being used.
So far it has exceeded expectations. The only issue I am having is not being able to get any “User ID”. This is down to the way our Wireless Network, where we intend to use the firewall, is setup.
Today we may have come up with a solution.

Here’s to hoping…..

iPad Bluetooth Case

On returning from my holiday the other week, I purchased an iPad case with Bluetooth Keyboard.
I have been using it for a couple of weeks and I must say I am very impressed.

The case does look a little large, but no larger than a small netbook.
It has changed the way I now use my iPad but it does mean I do use it more.

.Details Of The Case Can Be Found Her

Lest We Forget

20111113-115826.jpg

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

Let’s remember what Remembrance Sunday is all about………
