		<title>Video and Slides from Interaction 10&#8217;s KPI talk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here is the video of my presentation from Interaction 10 on Key Performance Indicators. The video was very nicely made, with the slides being presented just as the right time (so you don&#8217;t have to stare at me much). I do recommend you take a look at my annotated slides (below) where I captured some [...]]]></description>

		<title>Your choice of words matters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yet another reason why designers and business folk talk past each other: people who are purposefully misleading to get attention.
I came to this presentation from Google on their Quality Score measure because someone referred to it by saying &#8220;Quality Score is a measure of user experience&#8221;. It obviously peaked my interest because it is precisely [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quant before Qual makes no sense. But it does.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I continue to explore how designers can make better informed decisions by leveraging information, the issue with number aversion is still #1. I talked about this already in my Interaction 10 presentation, but I&#8217;ve been digging deeper and have some other thoughts (check my presentation for some base assumptions).
If we agree that quantifiable data, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Interaction 10</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past week I had the pleasure to present at Interaction 10 in Savannah, Ga. This was my first Interaction conference and I absolutely loved it. The city, the venue, the crowd and the content were all fantastic. Even the food was the best conference food I&#8217;ve ever had. The IXDA should be really proud [...]]]></description>

		<title>Project updates</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I must have tried as many different ways as I have had projects in my career. I don&#8217;t know what is the problem, but I just suck at consistently keeping people informed in the same way. 
The bigger problem is that if I am not providing updates to other people than it is likely I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Search and Browse</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I watched a really great presentation by Peter Morville and Mark Burrell at UIE discussing search patterns. I have to admit that the only reason why I attended is because Peter was speaking and I always love what he has to say, because I very rarely have to actually design search interfaces.
After the presentation [...]]]></description>

		<title>Project 52</title>

Per the project&#8217;s page:
Project52 is a personal challenge geared toward getting fresh content on your website. The goal is to write at least 1 new article per week [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy real age to me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So today I&#8217;m 30. The age itself holds no real meaning for me though I know in popular culture people dread years that end in a zero. To me it feels like any other birthday, which means warm and fuzzy feelings because, yay, it is my birthday and I think birthdays are awesome because they [...]]]></description>

		<title>Generalist versus Specialist</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dave Gray is asking today about Generalists versus Specialist sociability. It&#8217;s an interesting topic; during the discussion he posted this diagram describing generalists and specialists approaches.
Dave made an important point, to say we are all generalists and specialists in different circumstances.  I like the visualization but I feel like it doesn&#8217;t tell me what [...]]]></description>
