Award Results at the ISPA Awards Homepage

The judges agreed that UKFast has placed importance on client data protection and can offer customers a variety of secure hosting packages which include automated patch management and good SLAs

The winners were picked from the elite of the Internet Industry and gathered at the London Marriott Hotel, Grosvenor Square on the 14th March 2008.

When accepting the award Lawrence Jones thanked his hard working and dedicated team:

The technology industry relies on people and I have some of the very best. So I would like to thank my team,

[..]

Every year we return and look at where we can improve our offering. In the immediate future we are recruiting within the customer service team in order to further improve our service to the growing number of businesses that join the UKFast network.

Brian Ahearne, organiser of the ISPA awards, and Communications Manager for ISPA UK added:

In the ten year history of the awards no one has managed to win four years in a row before. It is unprecedented.

As a software developer for Text.co.uk, UKFast’s research & development, marketing and PR arm, it is extremely refreshing to work alongside such a professional and supportive team - a team who show a passion for innovation and dedication to dynamically improving the Internet hosting industry in every aspect.

This crow was following me, it seemed to know that I had my camera out that day. Whilst climbing Snowdon in Wales with work (UKFast Climb Snowdon) this cheeky fellow, I decided adventerously to call him mr crow, was pursuing us up the mountain taking great delight in posing for the camera.

Well that was until the boss’s dogs noticed and then took of in chase towards a rather steep drop. Anyway, like the crow in this photo I like to be aware of my surroundings, a good theme I hope for what you might have to suffer here.

Well that’s it, I was going to write up all about going mountain biking the other weekend, but I am exhausted and you can read about it here for now.

Oh yeah I am listening to Two Nations by the Streets

Well I have had a blog before, but I didn’t really use it that much, but here I am and I am gonna give it another go.

The main purpose of this blog is to just keep a record of anything that interests me really, it could be anything, music to monkeys…

At the time of publishing this this blog isn’t even live yet, just created the hosting on one of my servers and getting to the site using my local hosts file, but UKFast.Net (who I work for) will be updating their DNS database in about an hours time so this will begin to trickle out into the wide world.

I went to get my hair cut a few hours ago cos tonight is Rich’s wedding do, in fact he is probably walking down the isle as I am writing this, and I have just realised that the barber has managed to get hair all down the back of my left shoulder! This wouldn’t normally be a problem, it’s just hair! But I went shopping straight after and I guess I was just walking around Somerfield with hair cuttings all down my back! Oh well…

Anyway, I gotta get ready for Rich’s bash so I’ll be back later!
