		<description><![CDATA[So my first iOS speaking appearance went down on Wednesday.  The topic was <a href="http://lanyrd.com/2011/lidg26/sdkgg/" target="_blank">"Multithreaded Applications Using Grand Central Dispatch"</a>.  Many thanks to the 80-odd people who turned up and all the positive Twitter feedback that it resulted in.  

As promised, <a href="http://www.davefoxy.com/docs/GCDPresentation.pdf">the presentation notes are now available</a>.  There were some last-minute time restraints put upon me so I couldn't go into the level of detail I had planned so if you have any further questions, feel free to drop a comment.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blocks, are an interesting concept in Objective-C that can be used in many ways.  At the simplest level, they allow you to group multiple lines of code together and this allows you to program in a totally different way as they can be used in place of delegates and the like.

This blog post discusses how to create and implement them in a number of different development scenarios.]]></description>

Anyways, the ultimate turn-based strategy game has been the outcome.  Here's a quick video of what I came up with...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bit.ly is a wicked service which, if you don't know, shortens any query-heavy URLs you might have into new URLs of about 11 characters.  This came in massively handy when I was developing <a href="/works/when-and-where">"When And Where?"</a>, an iPhone application that, at one point, wanted to send a custom Google maps URL via SMS to a user.  Without shortening it, the text message would have spanned a good few texts, costing the user a fortune!

Enter the Bit.ly API.  So I knew it was the weapon of choice for this task, just one question remained; can it return reponses in JSON?  Thankfully it can and it's not so difficult.  A quick class extending NSOperation and it was sorted.  Here's how it was created...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night I gave a presentation at LFPUG on "Contracting In London".  It was mainly about recommended routes into the contracting lifestyle as well as some tips and tricks to get the most out of things.

It was my first attempt at public speaking and it went down... ok.  Seriously though, there was good feedback at the end and I'm pretty proud I made the step.
