		<title>Build a better umbrella</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Boston has eaten enough of my umbrellas, and I hate the idea of having  to put on a pile of rain gear every time I go out. I tried the so-called  windproof &#8220;Gustbuster&#8221;, and it lasted for about a month of early spring  weather in before a nor&#8217;easter killed it.
For anybody out [...]]]></description>

		<title>Procrastination</title>
		<description><![CDATA[People procrastinate because there is a tendency to get positive reinforcement for it from very early on in their lives. Academia is especially bad with this. The go-getters tend to be the ones doing extra work due to typos in assignments or late-in-the-game assignment changes, much to the procrastinators&#8217; relative benefit. Sometimes assignments are canceled [...]]]></description>

		<title>A free and open source CMS&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately I&#8217;ve been asked to research open source CMS options for a number of different reasons. I work for a consulting company that specializes in web site redesigns and CMS implementations. We&#8217;ve got a long and storied history with .NET-based solutions such as Sharepoint and Sitecore, but not so much history with less Microsoft-y solutions. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Updates done right</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The newest version of WordPress has made updating ridiculously easy. When you sign in and there are updates available, you see a link that says &#8220;Click here to update.&#8221; This makes it incredibly attractive for projects where you&#8217;re working with people who have little to no technical skills.
I appreciate this more now since I just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Drupal tip: Use the admin theme</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been asked to investigate Drupal as a possible CMS offering to diversify BigBad&#8217;s portfolio of CMS offerings. I thought, while I&#8217;m at it, I can share some tips and tricks I discover along the way. One of the first problems I ran into when I started making my custom Drupal theme was that the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I need a new banner image for the top of this page. I&#8217;ve been using the stock one for far too long. If you have an idea or a banner I can use, let me know in the comments and/or send me an email. It needs to be the same size as the one that&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fixing Gmail Notifier</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been using Gmail Notifier for years to tell me when I have new mail. It&#8217;s nice and lightweight, and stays out of my way. A few months ago, it just stopped working and I couldn&#8217;t figure out why. I tried updating, read through a bunch of Google Support pages, and saw a couple of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Yet another blog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fear not! This blog will stay around to chronicle my regular thoughts and rants. However, I recently moved into an apartment with three roommates, all of whom are women. It seemed to me that this had far too much entertainment potential for me not to document it in some way. So I set up Estrogenous [...]]]></description>
