Start with XML

Why is it that I have it in my head that I enjoy public speaking, and therefore readily agree to do lots of it, when just before doing some I remember that it freaks me out? Come along, one and all, and enjoy hearing me at the Start with XML conference tomorrow at the British Library. Watch! as I look nervous and talk a bit too quickly. Marvel! as I tell you all about how we use XML without boring the pants off you. Be Amazed! as I get to the end of the speech without ballsing it up, hopefully. Give me a little cheer to steady my nerves, won't you? (I don't mind it that much, in truth. I just find it funny that I forget that I get nervous.) See you tomorrow! //update// It went really well! And I had such fun. *Now* I remember why I like public speaking! Thanks for the warm reception, people who were there.

The SnowBlog is one of the oldest publishing blogs, started in 2003, and it's been through various content management systems over the years. A 2005 techno-blunder meant we lost the early years, but the archives you're reading now go all the way back to 2005.

Many of the older posts in our blog archive suffer from link rot. Apologies if you see missing links and images: let us know if you'd like us to find any in particular.
