We launched!
You are now looking at the all-new ZDNet UK, and although the paint may be a bit wet in places, we think it's a massive improvement on what went before. We'll touch up any bits we missed in the days and weeks to come.

In case you missed it, here on Berlind's Testbed, I posted an entry on a new company called Code Green Networks the other day. Whether or not you find Code Green to be worth your attention, that blog post is worth a second look because (1) you're going to see more of that sort of multimedia editorial packaging here on TestBed and (2) I think ZDNet is either on or near the tip of the spear when it comes to where blogo-journalism is headed.

We're moving offices over Easter, and after much cajoling from our office manager, I'm finally clearing out ZDNet UK's lab space. It's hell in there, with more entangled power leads, cat 5 cables and other random bits of tech flotsam, not to mention jetsam, than you can shake a stick at.
It's almost humorous to remember now how terrified everyone seemed to be in the early 1990s of the mostly harmless 'dark-side hackers' of the era. The most famous of these was undoubtedly Kevin Mitnick, whose 1995 capture formed the basis of no less than three books.
We've been writing about push email for long enough, and now we ZDNet hacks have got shiny new Windows Mobile smartphones (in my case, the HTC S620, all hooked up to our corporate Exchange server.Legacy tech hack (left) gets to grips with push email on HTC S620 (right).
Home/small office networkers interested in a ‘wires-only’ ADSL connection should consider this well-featured and reasonably usable DSL modem/router/switch.
Going wire free shouldn't cost you a fortune, and the latest from IFROGZ is a perfect example of that.
