In November 2007 TiGra Networks embarked on a project to evaluate various digital telephony solutions, with a view to implementing our own infrastructure and, in the process, gain the necessary knowledge and experience to offer digital telephony solutions...
New broadband installation is complete but was not without some pain. That's not really surprising as domestic providers aren't really geared up for supplying businesses. The line was swapped over by about 10am and I promptly got a text message...
TiGra Networks is having a broadband upgrade this week so we'll be offline for perhaps a day while that happens. We'll be completely off the air for a while and there will be a bit of disruption while we install the new equipment and update our...
If, like me, you're trying to get up to speed on Silverlight 2.0 beta 2, you should know about Jesse Liberty's webcast series. Jesse has a new approach to coding webcasts where instead of watching the presenter write code live (which takes time...
An interesting project to measure UK broadband providers is being conducted by Samknows Broadband. Volunteers can sign up to receive specially modified Linksys routers that collect performance data and 'phone home' with the results. Until now...
Someone on LinkedIn recently posed the question: Which of the technology Open Source or Microsoft you prefer? [sic] Well that was like a red rag to a bull. My response was voted "best answer" by the original poster, so I suppose I must've...
Today, Microsoft formally announced availability of Windows Small Business Server 2008 and Windows Essential Server 2008, their server offerings for small- and medium-sized businesses, respectively. Pricing Although at face value, the price of Small Business...

I attended a seminar a few days ago that explored current and emerging uses of technology and communications in business. The event was hosted by Rhondda Cynon Taff Business Club . There was a presentation by Light Age Communications on what's currently...
I have a few sites that are now totally Windows Vista Business and SBS 2003 where the users run as Standard User. One consequence of this is that printers have to be deployed by group policy, because standard users don't have permission to install...
It seems there is an instant messenger virus at large at the moment. The virus sends messages similar to these (the URLs are deliberately obfuscated): "Hot or Not? hxxp://mymsngallery.my.funpic de/viewimage.php?youremail@someplace.com" or "this...

SanDisk is now up to 72Gb with the SSD SATA 5000 - directly equivalent to what many servers have in the form of SAS or SCSI drives, which come in 74Gb capacity. However, imagine how many of these little cards (5mm thick x 1.8 inches wide) you can fit...
