		<description><![CDATA[I've been struggling with trying to figure out why our new Dell Optiplex 780s can't be remotely powered on using Wake-On-Lan.

		<title>Google Maps Street View appears black</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Google Maps Street View has been appearing all black instead of showing images when using Safari on my Mac Pro running Snow Leopard.

		<title>Video Blogging and Podcasting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I've noticed an increasing trend where both bloggers, and even some larger companies now post an entry on their web site that basically says "download this podcast" or "watch this video" to hear more about XYZ.

		<title>The Joys of Project Management</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I'm taking a graduate level project management course this semester. There are a few things so far that may directly apply to my job and would allow for some improvements in how we manage projects, but the political implications of doing so would be...interesting. The textbooks used for this class really need to give better [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I do at work is manage some university computer labs. Our student workers keep an eye on things, and noticed an increasing number of people were walking away leaving their USB jump drives still plugged into the computer.

		<title>VMware ESX3i now free</title>
		<description><![CDATA[VMware made ESX3i available for free today. https://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/login.php?eval=esxi&#38;t=1 The hardware compatibility list is fairly limited for ESX3i compared to ESX 3. It appears however that the software will work on a variety of machines, but just won't be supported by VMware. As an example, a Dell PowerEdge 1850 is on the HCL for ESX but [...]]]></description>
