Google Webmaster Tools DNS Issues

We had some reports recently that Google Webmaster Tools was reporting DNS issues with sitemaps and the ability to read you sitemap.xml or sitemap.gz.xml files. Upon investigation of this we couldn’t really find any good reason for this going on. We did find a link in the google webmaster help section which showed that the problem was not local and was happening all over.

With Alistair Darling’s pre-budget report (PBR) due out at some point today one of the most expected changes is the reduction in VAT from 17.5% to 15%. Whilst this is one of a range of matters put forward by the government to stimulate the countries economic growth, in practise how will this effect systems which companies have had in place and working practises.

Make SIP Calls from your mobile using FRING
2008-08-27 | 0 Comments | by Patrick Byrnes
We have been asked by many customers if the can setup their mobile phones to make SIP calls. The answer we have given them has been both yes and no. The main UK operators don’t really like the idea of voip/sip calls being made from your mobile handset. If you have received a mobile phone from your chosen supplier then chances are that the firmware has been altered in some way and that the ability to use the inbuilt internet phone application has been removed.
