		<title>LastHistory Visualizes Your Listening History</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I got this one from Paul Lamere&#8217;s MusicMachinery blog&#8230;. it&#8217;s so cool.  Not really super useful yet in my experience, but TOTALLY COOL even so.
You install LastHistory.  You put in your Last.fm username.  It parses through your listening history.  Then you get a graphical representation of your listening over time, that looks something like this.

But [...]]]></description>

		<title>Unpacked a Box of Memories</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend my parents dropped off a cardboard box.  This box, I discovered, was a box full of desk materials I sent back from the UK to home, during my last few weeks of graduate school at Oxford.  In it I discovered a lot of pencil leads, a well-wrapped ink pot, a pair [...]]]></description>

		<title>We upgraded our Igloo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This one should have more staying power.  We used large storage container blocks for the first two tiers, then medium-sized blocks on the next few tiers, then went to the smaller blocks as we created the conical cupola.  The big block on the top is a keystone, I hope, forcing everything to hold shape.  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Real-time access to a Global Brain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Preamble
About 15 years ago I spent a couple years writing a thesis about the emergence of multimedia representation from the 18th to the 20th centuries as a force of cultural change.   Put simply &#8211; the fact that when creators mixed imagery with language, meaning became more accessible to the educated and (importantly) the illiterate, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Next Big Thing &#8211; KickApps</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I have a big announcement in Grant Cerny land.
In the beginning of any given year there are all of these prophets, false- and otherwise, who rally to make predictions for the upcoming year.  What they&#8217;re all looking for is the &#8220;next big thing.&#8221;
I had a few ideas about what the next big thing for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Global Warming?  My igloo decimated by rain 24 hours after construction.  Gah!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I built this igloo yesterday afternoon.  Unfortunately because the rain was coming on, I didn&#8217;t get my real camera out and I only got this pic with a Blackberry.
Then it rained all day today.  What a terrible day weather-wise for the day after Christmas.  The kids had been planning to play Eskimo [...]]]></description>

		<title>Finding Vectors on the Horizontal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fancy post title &#8211; simple update.  Maeve started crawling last week.  Right now she&#8217;s making her first laps around the kitchen island, just like the &#8220;Circus Maximus&#8221; of Ella &#038; Isabel fame.  It must be wondrous to discover that the world is not only so colorful, but stretches out so many places [...]]]></description>

I caught up on everything that&#8217;s going on with Playdar, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Blitz! &#8211; Yeah Yeah Yeahs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t often get around to writing about music, and that&#8217;s probably indicative of how long I have to listen to it.   But I&#8217;m finally getting around to the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs and I LOVE it.  Alternatively jammin and strong, then slow and evocative, but always VERY full of sound.  [...]]]></description>
