		<title>Eek! the Cat&#8217;s last life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Like many cultured cartoon geeks my age, I have been waiting patiently for Eek! the Cat to come out on DVD, so that I might recapture the halcyon days of the early 90s watching the best thing on Fox Kids.
I asked writer/director &#8220;Savage&#8221; Steve Holland about the fate of Eek at Cinefamily&#8217;s recent double-feature of [...]]]></description>

		<title>PhoneFlicks vs. Netflix for iPhone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love Netflix, and I think they&#8217;ve shown some amazing innovation in the on-demand video market, which is why they more or less own it.  But Netflix for the iPhone is the first product they&#8217;ve released that I am disappointed in, enough to make me rethink my earlier assessment of Phone Flicks, my Netflix [...]]]></description>

		<title>They&#8217;ve lost &#8216;Control&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was glad to ditch PhoneFlixFlicks from my iPhone because of its crappy UI.  Say I want to add Control, Anton Corbijn&#8217;s 2009 biopic of Ian Curtis.  Well, PhoneFlicks gives me one result: it&#8217;s Control all right &#8212; a 2001 thriller with Sean Young.

Did you leave enough room for the ad, the header, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Or would you accept complaint-inciting hero?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Regarding my brief essay on how videogames are cruel taskmasters when compared to the halcyon days of say, 2005, CrunchGear has an apt description of Fanboyism: When Expression Meets Desperation.
&#8220;Lacking anything real in life, the fanboy latches onto that which he has, and imbues it with the significance he craves.&#8221;
They paraphrase Marx, saying fanboyism is [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Guitar Hero, not achievement-unlocking-hero</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Let me blow your mind really quickly: playing video games are like doing chores these days, man.
I&#8217;ll gloss over how WoW and Farmville are designed to keep you playing (I&#8217;ll leave that research to Cracked, apparently), but want to talk about how this extends to even casual games you&#8217;ve already bought and paid for.
Games like [...]]]></description>

		<title>A generational divide at the movies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wonder if these things are related&#8230;
Why is it that the older you are the more you can&#8217;t stand &#8216;Inception&#8217;?
If &#8220;Inception&#8221; plays especially strongly with a young audience, it&#8217;s probably because they instinctively grasp its narrative density best, having grown up playing video games. &#8220;When it comes to understanding &#8216;Inception,&#8217; you&#8217;ve got a real advantage [...]]]></description>

		<title>The indescribable horror of Neonomicon&#8217;s artwork</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The art in Promethea tells a story. In From Hell it tells a story.  The first page of Watchmen tells a story.  Unless this is the story of a reliable Ford Focus with a FM radio/CD player standard, this page doesn&#8217;t tell me anything about Alan Moore&#8217;s Neonomicon that I need to know.

It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spotlight sucks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Let me start by saying that I hate OS X&#8217;s Spotlight.  It willingly turns a blind eye to system files, which (like so much else for the Mac) is a solution that satisfies 90% of users, but does nothing for the other 10%: people like me, who need to edit httpd.conf, php.ini, and other [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lego Minifigs UPC decoder</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After spending an inordinate amount on a complete set of Series 1 Lego Minifigures, I discovered a way to distinguish the individual bags based off the UPC code on the back.  I was all set to open and scan in every UPC and post them here, then I realized someone had already done it. [...]]]></description>
