		<title>Planning for South-By</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m heading out for SXSW first thing tomorrow morning. This is the fourth time I&#8217;ve attended the film and interactive festival and conference and it&#8217;s always a logistical nightmare figuring out what panels and sessions I want to get to and what films I want to see, but this year is especially complicated and exciting [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dear Councilor Keogh</title>

		<title>What the Internet is for</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chatroulette. I haven&#8217;t tried it, but I love that it exists. Here&#8217;s a great little documentary about it&#8230;

		<title>Some web video dos and don&#8217;ts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just watched this web video interview with ProBlogger scribe Darren Rowse in which he admonishes new bloggers to blog abut subjects they have some expertise in. This is really good advice &#8212; it makes the blog in question not only interesting and entertaining (assuming the blogger has some writing chops and a winning personality) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting Better: Links</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was totally thrashed by the flu last week. I taught class a week ago Monday, despite feeling under the weather (mistake) and then for the next five days I couldn&#8217;t stand up for more than a few minutes at a time and had a very bad chest/head situation. There was no high fever, which [...]]]></description>

		<title>and oh yeah, Comcast sucks.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our internet has been in and out for two days. That&#8217;s typical for the weekend. It&#8217;s astounding how used to it I&#8217;ve become. Imagine if another utility &#8212; say the electric company &#8212; had regular outages or intermittent service as a common occurrence. They&#8217;d lose their Certificate of Public Good in two minutes flat. Somehow [...]]]></description>
