		<title>The Right Stuff</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Someone wiser than me once said &#8220;People decide how you must feel about something by what you do, not what you say.&#8221; This evening I was reflecting over a workshop I once participated in on work-place behaviors.

		<title>Google Buys Instantiations</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just read this evening that Google purchased Instantiations. Here is the Instantiations web site with an official report. http://www.instantiations.com/ Wow. Of course I know the Instantiations folks really well, having worked with many of them for years and I congratulate them. I&#8217;m guessing that Google was mostly interested in their Java tools, but I have [...]]]></description>

		<title>In praise of Apple&#8217;s iBooks reader</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I&#8217;ve posted before, I was recently given an iPad. And I am very impressed with this device. The screen is fabulous and the speed is fantastic. I am fortunate enough to have an iPad 3G with 64GB memory thanks to my lovely wife, Melissa. I originally began to use it for my regular web [...]]]></description>

		<title>More than just scaling manufacturing at risk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, Bloomberg News published a piece by Andy Grove &#8211; the co-founder of Intel Corp. He makes a passionate and reasoned case for how the U.S.A. is making a mistake by outsourcing much, perhaps all, of our manufacturing base. Read the article here. This excerpt hits a nerve that applies to more than just manufacturing: [...]]]></description>

		<title>IOS 4 on 2nd generation iPhone 3G</title>

Recently Apple made the iOS 4 system software available for the 3G and 3GS versions of the iPhone, although some features are unavailable on [...]]]></description>

		<title>iOS 4 updated on my iPhone 3G</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Apple released iOS 4 (formerly iPhone OS 4) today. And like most probably all other iPhone owners I was eager to install this free update. By the way, this is still one of the cool things I admire about the iPhone. Every year there&#8217;s a free major software update. And it&#8217;s always a worthwhile update. [...]]]></description>

		<title>These guys are printing gold</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, June 15th, customers could begin to pre-order the new model of iPhone, iPhone 4, through either AT&#038;T or Apple. Later the same day it was announced that you could no longer order the new mobile phone anywhere. Here&#8217;s a quote I read from AT&#038;T posted during the afternoon. &#8220;Because of the incredible interest in [...]]]></description>
