		<description><![CDATA[Apple is what is wrong with the iPhone.  Apple tightly controls several aspects of the phone.  The software development interfaces don&#8217;t allow you to access some of the core data on the phone.  This means you won&#8217;t find a great replacement calendar in the App Store.  In addition, Apple also does [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve heard the old saying about &#8220;Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me&#8221; right?  I think we know that&#8217;s not true, but it&#8217;s also wrong when it comes to buzzwords in the Enterprise.  Want to see your corporate leadership and legal department run to the hills and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently updated my iPhone to the latest 2.1 release.  There were a lot of improvements, but the one that interested me the most were improvements to the radio.  I live in a cellular dead zone - I get a bar once and a while which is just enough to annoy me.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[AT&#038;T launched the iPhone last year.  Despite some severe limitations (slower network, no easy way to install apps) the platform took off like a rocket.  Now with the ability to install apps (from a managed distribution channel) and fast network support it would seem the iPhone has become the killer smartphone device.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My local Dominos finally started offering online ordering.  Why order pizza online?  I like to view what the specials are, see what things I can add, and get the family requests figured out without a stressed-out teenage employee on the other end of the phone.  We&#8217;ve ordered Pizza Hut online for years, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I&#8217;ve started to follow my co-worker&#8217;s life data feeds (blogs, twitter, facebook) I find myself enjoying people at another level.  Someone who was just &#8220;another person&#8221; on that &#8220;weekly call&#8221; is now a person that did something interesting, or just had a baby, or ___________.
Think of the opportunities, and the scary things.

		<description><![CDATA[I recently had an interesting problem.  I kept getting warnings from my router about a 3rd party router being connected.  You might say, &#8220;How does your router warn you?&#8221; While browsing the web my router would force a redirect to a web page (hosted by the router&#8217;s web server) instructing me that a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Session One was a loser.  Automation of MDA to J2EE (TS-7466).  While a potentially interesting topic it wasn’t apparent from the description that this was basically a vendor demonstration.  Those things should somehow be noted better.  Every five years I sit through (as a skeptic) and listen to the model driven [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The day started out with a keynote from Oracle.  Some interesting stuff.  The mentality of Oracle hasn&#8217;t changed much over the years.  They provide an IDE, runtimes, database integration that is very seamless but hopelessly proprietary.  It&#8217;s all &#8220;standards based&#8221; meaning where they use standard plumbing and interfaces.  However the [...]]]></description>
