		<title>Pardon My Dust</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well the new site design is up. The problem with this is that it isn&#8217;t actually complete yet. I wouldn&#8217;t have normally released something that isn&#8217;t complete yet, however, I am expecting some important traffic, and leaving the coming soon page up just wasn&#8217;t going to do.
So, while the site is currently live, please be [...]]]></description>

		<title>What is Cuil.com?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been seeing a lot of references to cuil.com popping up in my RSS feeds and tweets lately. Wondering what it was all about (and how it is supposed to be pronounced), but too lazy to actually click on any of the links, I put the url in my trusty Firefox browser and was [...]]]></description>

		<title>CSS Trick: Center content that is larger than a browser window</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is fairly easy to center things in the browser window by using the rule: &#8216;margin:auto;&#8217; on the containing div.
