		<description><![CDATA[A good keyword strategy should be one of your first if not your first part to a good SEO plan. Defining what keywords you want to target is very crucial and should never be skipped. If you skip defining what keywords you want to target then you are just going to be shooting in the dark and have no real direction which will give you very low traffic or traffic that is not your target audience.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A lot of people feel that choosing a good domain name is easy to do, simply choose your business name as the web site URL. This option is most of the time true and for most brick and mortor businesses the best option. But unless you business name is rich in the keywords your target customers are looking for you are not likly going to rank very easily on the search engines. Most of the time I suggest someone looking to rank high in search engines to use a keyword rich domain name. But there are a few things you need to consider which I will discuss in this article.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Microsoft Group Policy became very useful with the launch of Windows server 2000 and as more and more businesses were moving away from the workgroup environment and into the domain environment. Group Policy gave network administrators a way to control settings on all computers and servers that exsist within there network domain. Over the years group policy has evolved and become very customizable where each OU within Active Directory can have its own group policy. So if you need to hadle the computers within the accounting department different than the computers in the maintenance department, group policy can do this. For the purposes of this article I will be discussing the newest version which is what is included in Windows Server 2008 64-bit. Although there are not a whole lot of changes (except the look) betweeen Server 2003 and Server 2008 I am willing to do a Server 2003 Group Policy article if enough people would like to see it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most web Designers now a days use expensive programs like Adobe Dreamweaver or Adobe Fireworks to create their web sites. Well these programs have a lot of functionality but they also have heavy price tag as well. As a starting out web designer I did not have access to programs like this until I had designed a couple sites. So I needed a way I could create my Web Designs with what I had when I started and that was a Laptop with Windows XP, an internet connection, and the willingness to learn. What I needed was a way I could layout the way I wanted my web page to look and then extract parts of the images for my web site.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For those of you who do not know what a MAC address is, it is the burned in address that every networking piece of equipment has that is unique. No two pieces of equipment should every have the same MAC address. There are many reasons someone might want to change the MAC address of the network card or wireless card. Maybe they are trying to connect to someone's wireless network that only allows certain MAC addresses. You can also change your MAC address to test your own security settings, and even DHCP settings. So there are many reasons why you might want to change your MAC address.]]></description>

But you can purchase these really nice USB to serial connections that work great. Sometime however when you plug one into a linux computer it will pick an random unused COM port and you don't know which one. I personally use PuTTY and I need to know the exact port in order for the serial connection to work.]]></description>

I personally have absolutly nothing against MAC I think they make a great computer. I am a Windows and Linux user so I am no going to show bias here and I will even include in my statement that Linux is not immuned to viruses as well. People it is all about the numbers here and what make more sense for the person writing the virus or malware as it is more commonly referred to know.

		<description><![CDATA[So this is a topic where a lot of people have many different opinions on the best way to do CSS positioning and so give you a little perspective as to how frustrating it can be. I saw an pie graph the other day that showed a layout of a Web Designers time spent on a web site and about 1/5 was "Time spent trying to get CSS position to work, then giving up and using tables" and this is such a true statement. I can't tell you how many times that has happened to me. But by using tables you are flexible in your layout but not as flexible as using CSS positioning. The major benefit of using CSS is if you want to change the look you don't have to change every page, just the CSS.]]></description>
