		<title>Ruby on Fails (story and stickers!)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, a week before PHP&#124;TEK 2008 I came up with the genius idea to take the Ruby on Rails logo, which is protected against re-use (hahaha), and parody it. I wanted to express my views of Ruby on Rails (though never have using RoR) through this modification.

I purchased an iPhone 3G for myself and my Fiance on July 25th, 2008. After a solid week of use, I have determined that it is the single device that will change the world, end hunger, lower gas prices, and help the world agree on a single global [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
I recently started creating buttons that appeal to my geekness. My favorite creation so far is my Pac-man Button Set.
I used screen shots from the US Arcade version of the game to create these buttons. This means that they are all accurately colored &#038; to scale (except for the &#8220;READY!&#8221; button, for size constraints).
Everything important [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Facebook Chat.

One Word: Awesome.
Not because I can instantly chat with friends, but because I can see my friends activity on facebook LIVE. I can see when they sign on, when they go idle, and I can see their live mini-feed within the chat window. For Facebook, this is revolutionary.
