		<title>Disappointing Literature and a Little to Taste</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I guess I never really understood the OS wars. Why people would blindly pledge themselves to one company is beyond me, but even paying half one&#8217;s attention to some of the comments (read: crap) one can find on technology blogs these days becomes depressing. I must admit switching to Ubuntu was not without its superficial [...]]]></description>

		<title>Oh Ubiquity, How I Hate You</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Ubiquity extension for Firefox is an experimental attempt to interlink the web through the parsing of language. Its interface is pretty much a command line in which you type what you want to do. And it works. Beautifully. If you&#8217;re American.
Localize, Localise
The extension is rigidly American. I, as a UK citizen, could only look [...]]]></description>

		<title>Theme Release: First Wave for Firefox</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Strata, the default theme for Firefox, kind of&#8230;sucks.
I&#8217;m not just being mean, either. They admit it themselves. Firefox has gone far too long without an update to integrate itself into Windows in the same way that it&#8217;s integrated itself into our hearts. In fact, Windows 7 has just gone to RTM—equipment manufacturers are now able [...]]]></description>

		<title>Laissez Tomber: A Peek At French Music</title>
		<description><![CDATA[*searches for a good introduction.* 
*finds none.* 
Oh, alright. Well, English music is getting a bit stale. I mean, opening up iTunes now I get such fantastic artists such as Deadmau5, with “Random Album Title”. Try harder, Deadmau5. And spell your bloody name right whilst you’re at it.
What else…oh, the Jonas Brothers. Eugh. God. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rise of the Venetian Empire II: Confessions of an Indiaman</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Maratha Confederacy grew out of a rebel movement in southern India against the ruling Mughal Empire. By 1707, the Mughals—an incredibly rich Islamic empire presumably having moved down from the neighbouring countries like Persia—had lost an invasive war against the Marathas. At the historical peak of the Maratha Confederacy, it had the majority of [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Rise of the Venetian Empire I: Counterfactual Advances</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Venezia. The beautiful city of water. Capital of the autonomous region of Veneto in north-east Italy. Founded by refugees escaping the increase of Germanic raids on Roman cities, the incola lacunae—Latin for lagoon dwellers—grew in strength as the Byzantine campaigns in the country continued. Eventually, Venice became independent. It became one of the Repubbliche Marinare, the Maritime [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reactionary Ragdoll</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wish I had a form of dramatic or musical ability. It&#8217;s such a pity; although musicals are not my favourite form of &#8220;art&#8221;, there&#8217;s something about them&#8211;the more cheerful ones, that is&#8211;that appeals to me. Anyway, most of my friends are doing an enaction of Guys and Dolls (or have been roped into doing [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Will Be Happy. You Will Be Happy Or Else!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m not going to say I’m a big man and can cope with whatever life can throw at me, because I’m not. This week has been busy and depressing. That said, things could—just possibly—be looking up for once. Then again, this is me.
I’ve been thinking about words a lot. I happened across a book of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Favicons: You&#8217;re Doing Them Wrong</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Favicons have been with us from the start of the Internet as we know it, but the vast majority of web authors are still using them wrong. Why? Our little friend the MIME is here to help.
Mime Types and the Internet
Officially Internet media type nowadays, the Mime type originated as a way of signifying additional [...]]]></description>

		<title>Review: Grand Theft Auto IV: Bring Hammer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The GTA series has always had one major appeal: the ability to run around with various types of weaponry wrecking havoc in my wake. That’s always been the golden heart of the franchise, and I can’t help but think that in this iteration Rockstar did not only murder the cop-killing fest but did it by [...]]]></description>
