		<title>Is Kwedit For Real?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was following the commentary about Kwedit Thursday, like I think a lot of payments professionals, my initial reaction was something between &#8216;how cute&#8217; and &#8217;seems a little crazy.&#8217; Glenbrook and Finextra didn&#8217;t have a lot of commentary, but TechCrunch was certainly optimistic. Over the course of the day as I thought about it more, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Power-Plunk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I try not to use this space to rant, so this is a little rant, and mostly constructive (I hope). At the same time, it just seems that most people think PowerPoint is Word with a landscape layout.
The other day I posted this tweet while on a corporate training web session. The experience reminded of [...]]]></description>

		<title>What I Do</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been meaning to post this since the first week of January, but I&#8217;ve been traveling too much. Here is a map of my domestic travel in 2008. 2009 is shaping up to be similar. Including the international travel, 2008 came out with over 170,000 flight miles, which is about 70% of the way to [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Have Seen the Future of Television</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And it is not on cable, or satellite, or broadcast. It is on the net. In honor of Hulu&#8217;s first birthday, I wanted to share the very positive experience I&#8217;ve had over the last week, and why I think Hulu has some real potential.
It was just a few weeks ago that I finally started using [...]]]></description>

		<title>Evernote &#8211; My Surrogate Memory</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I thought it would nice to review some web tools after the buzz around them has died down, and after a period of use that proves their value. The first in this category is Evernote. Evernote is a multi-client, multi-access, multimedia notes application.
Why Evernote is so valuable to me:

Ubiquitous Access &#8211; providing iPhone, Mac, Windows [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cleaning Grimy MacBook Pro or G4</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been preparing my old PowerBook G4 to give to my in-laws since I have a MacBook Pro and bought the wife a new MacBook. One of the things that happens with a lot of use of the aluminum keyboards is a build up of grime and oils. There is a lot of information out [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Social Media Win</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently had breakfast at Sally&#8217;s restaurant in San Francisco, and was not impressed. My meal was sub-par, so like any young (ish) geeky net type guy, I put it on Yelp. I was going against the stream &#8211; most of the reviews were great, and I did assume I had a one off, lousy [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Is Blogging Hard?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It doesn&#8217;t take more than a quick look at this blog&#8217;s archive to see that bogging can seem to be hard. I don&#8217;t publish as regularly as I would like, ideas go unwritten daily &#8211; and I am not the busiest person around. Sure, I work 16 hours some days, and 12 others, and some [...]]]></description>

		<title>Online Multi-Factor Authentication</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was just reading this article on myOpenID CallVerifiD regarding using phone authentication for online log ins. This made me wonder why the mobile has not become a more common authentication factor. 
I&#8217;ve talked to too many people who have said that online banking has two factor authentication because you &#8220;have&#8221; the user name, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Curse of Knowledge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I really enjoy stories about people who bring a completely outside perspective to what appears to be an intractable problem (and thus the name of the blog and consulting service). One of the things that I notice time and again, even in myself, is the &#8216;curse of knowledge&#8217; &#8211; the tendency to lock in to [...]]]></description>
