		<description><![CDATA[	While flipping channels, I ran across an episode of City Confidential, a show that takes viewers on a trip to an American city while recounting a murder there.  This particular episode involved two business partners - one was convicted of killing the other.  The murder victim was apparently exceptionally hard working and capable, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Got a brand new website you want to promote?  Wondering how to get traffic and improve Google rankings?  Google&#8217;s webmaster Svengali Matt Cutts clued us in at the recent Pubcon in Las Vegas: start a blog.  (You were expecting, maybe, &#8220;buy a bunch of links?&#8221;  )  Matt pointed out that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Tired of high tech designs that look hopelessly dated in just a few years?  Longing for a more Victorian sensibility?  You may need to get up to speed with steampunk, a design movement whose participants hack new tech devices (and more) into steam-era exteriors.  The photo is a late-model Hewlett Packard computer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Verizon finally managed to push me into the arms of the competition.  I was a fairly happy voice subscriber.  I tested an XV6700 way back in March, and liked it.  I decided to hold off, though, since the release of the XV6800 (pictured months earlier in various tech blogs), was supposed to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	

Today, I was driving in San Francisco with a couple of other SEO-types and we spotted a prominent billboard for Google&#8217;s 411 service.  The sign wasn&#8217;t too specific, but it conveyed that it was a free directory information service of some type.  So, being intrepid explorers, we gave it a whirl from the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Apple&#8217;s not perfect - I just chronicled a couple of their miscues in Apple iPhone: Turning Off Fans.  Despite that, Apple looks like a PR and branding genius compared to AT&#038;T.  Compare the introduction of Apple&#8217;s iPhone to the AT&#038;T Tilt.  Apple announced a launch date with lots of time for anticipation [...]]]></description>
