		<title>Lego &#8220;for girls&#8221; disappoints</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I remember Lego as a gender neutral building toy. This print advert from twenty years ago concurs. Lego these days has themes such as Harry Potter, Alien Conquest and Pirates of the Caribbean. It seems these collections just weren&#8217;t selling to enough girls so a Lego marketing team conducted an unprecedented in-depth study into girls&#8217; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arguing against unicorns</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Imposed internet outage for these last couple of weeks as I have moved home. Same area, but to a lovely Victorian garden flat. Bunny is pleased. Whilst trying to fill nearly two weeks worth of gloomy winter nights I found myself rummaging through old wallets of DVDs and CDRs of music and films. It seems [...]]]></description>

		<title>Family tech support and my Mum nearly says #fail</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Oh my, can slang be so pervasive even my Mum has picked it up? Yet she still can&#8217;t tell the difference between Google Chrome and Google.com. Sadly, one day this will be me, or you, struggling with whatever new technology arrives in our more twilight years.]]></description>

		<title>Godspeed, Steve Jobs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. Here&#8217;s his 2005 Stanford address. Great stuff.]]></description>

		<title>My Life as a Turkey</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Found a charming documentary on BBC iPlayer. Naturalist Joe Hutto imprints himself on to a brood of wild turkeys and spends eighteen months as a turkey parent. Beautifully shot, key moments from Joe&#8217;s experiences with the turkeys are meticulously recreated, deep within Florida&#8217;s Everglades forest. Joe&#8217;s gentle narrative and thoughtful, occasionally philosophical observations, combined with a [...]]]></description>

Also, who&#8217;d have thought FCP would have made a segment in Conan O&#8217;Brien?

		<title>Cognitive enhancement through software?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My mind isn&#8217;t what it used to be. I&#8217;ve never felt the tickle of genius but in my thirties I do find my attention lacks what it used to, as does my ability to learn new things, and retain that information. In fact, my short term memory is occasionally so unreliable that I sometimes chant [...]]]></description>
