	Description:		Having only just recently been bit by the character encoding issue again, we thought it would be a good time to bring it up on the podcast. Starting from the beginning with ASCII, we move on to discuss how 8-bit compatible machines brought way to the ISO-8859-* standards. This leads us on to Unicode, with the goal to develop a single character-set encoding standard that could support all of the world’s scripts. Finally, we discuss the de-factor character encoding implementation used on the web today ‘UTF-8’, and reasons why this is the case.
