		<title>End of a (Keyboard) Era</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today, I&#8217;m replacing my workstation keyboard. Not really a big deal, until you consider I&#8217;ve been using the same one for 16 years.

		<title>Ironman 2: This Time, We Should Have Written the Story First</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are no spoilers in this review! The (from what I can tell, substantiated) rumour from the first Ironman movie was that they didn&#8217;t really have a script; they made it up as they went along, and that worked out very well for them. Too well, because it appeared that they attempted to do the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Obligatory &#8220;Poking at My Blog Again&#8221; Post</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, yeah, the cycle that is my usual routine of a flurry of blog posts followed by long silence has finally been accomplished beyond wildest expectations. September 30th, huh? *ouch* In my defense, Facebook and Twitter have been busy ruining any long-form writing skills I may have been developing when I was posting here, well, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Twitter Integration Experiment&#8230;Um, Yeah</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, as you can see below, I tried an experiment where an extension would automatically post all of my tweets for the day in a blog post. As my tweeting has followed the pattern of my blog (although not to the same degree &#8211; I do tweet more often, I just turned this addon off [...]]]></description>

		<title>OSCON Day 3: Now the Fun Begins</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My hat is certainly off to those for whom blogging is either a way of life or a profession. I feel as though I was dragged through the day yesterday, barely able to keep up with moving from one part of the day to the next and having things register, let alone finding the time [...]]]></description>

		<title>OSCON Day 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With a only a couple of tutorials and an evening intro thing, there wasn&#8217;t much going on to report. My morning tutorial was Damian Conway&#8217;s &#8220;7 Principles of Better API Design&#8221;, which was fantastic.
