		<description><![CDATA[Google recently released their font API and font directory in an effort to bring more fonts to a wide range of modern browsers.  This is great news for web designers and developers tired of using the same old fonts.  There are other ways to serve non-web fonts in your sites, such as sIFR, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s no doubt about it, Constant Contact is a huge player in e-mail marketing.  They have been around since 1998 and are practically a genericized trademark for e-mail marketing campaigns.
But anybody who uses Constant Contact on a daily basis quickly realizes it&#8217;s shortcomings.  For instance not being able to use Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) selectors on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There's no denying that Wordpress is a great blogging solution, it's free, easily extensible and has great community support.  But creating your own themes from scratch can be time consuming and repetitive.  There's no need to re-invent the wheel, unless the wheel can't serve the desired purpose.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I was working on an event management project in PHP &#038; MySQL which made me realize that there must be a good solution for interacting with dates and times.  Not just using PHP's date format and storing it as character data in MySQL, and not having to parse out MySQL's DATETIME format in PHP.  Both PHP and MySQL have built-in functions for dealing with dates, it seems silly to have to give up one set of functionality for the other.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I work at a local Best Buy now.  It's kind of funny because I started watching the TV show Chuck last year in college and I fell in love with it.  Who knew after graduation I might be working at the "Buy More" and being taught to loathe "Large Mart".]]></description>

But that's all over, for now...  (My advisor really wants me to go to graduate school, but I think I'd like to see the world from a different perspective first, maybe a different kind of desk to sit behind]]></description>
