		<description><![CDATA[So apparently YouTube, according to a Pakistani telecommunications authority, carries content that is &#8220;deemed offensive to Islam.
So the ISP either purposefully or accidentally, added custom routing configurations to it&#8217;s routers to block YouTube. The unfortuate side-effect was that these BGP announcements were propagated to a large part of the world&#8217;s routers, taking YouTube offline for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Server Monitor is an application that allows you to monitor the health of several Xserves over the network:

Sometimes the application gets a bit cranky about the connections it makes to the servers and reports that it can&#8217;t communicate or as you see here in the picture &#8220;reply not understood&#8221;. So we don&#8217;t really use it [...]]]></description>
