		<description><![CDATA[Okay&#8230;. so I have been living my life from Google&#8217;s Beta Chrome laptop for the last couple months&#8230; And it&#8217;s great for the most part. Boots fast. Does most of what I need it to do. But it doesn&#8217;t have a freaking file browser&#8230; and that&#8217;s a big problem: The unfortunate bits come into play [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The events of my life often don&#8217;t make sense to me. Life feels precariously balanced on the knife-edge&#8230;  and at moments of synchronisity, it can be jarring, and yet reaffirming. My mind reels at those moments. Last night was one of those moments. Last week was spent on the road and in the air. Travel, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A friend of mine sent me a link about Google&#8217;s size (no, silly&#8230; it&#8217;s size in the market). I get enough spam comments about my own size already, but I thought perhaps I&#8217;d take a moment to put down my thoughts about how much of a good thing is too much. So, here&#8217;s another letter [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s a frustrating position to be in. I don’t care very much for the way that I see things occurring in the real world. Yet, there’s really nothing I can do about it. So, it occurred to me when I saw that Amazon had blacklisted wikileaks from it’s cloud-services, that I could boycott them. Oh [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, if it ever comes up in conversation&#8230; here&#8217;s a good reason to have free-speech (net-neutral bit transmission). This guy is operating a private blog, and has a very important story to tell. Imagine if somebody (a cable-modem operator) in a position of authority decided that you weren&#8217;t supposed to be reading this. Then you&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Any of my friends will tell you, I&#8217;m a dork for birds.  In particular, it&#8217;s the working model of air-viscosity that birds seem to have which intrigues me.  Is it instinctual, coming form their genetics? Or is it a function of living their lives in the air, that each bird learns about wind and motion independently [...]]]></description>
