		<title>FFXI Lesson #3: The Game Is Dead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[To quote a true veteran player on the FFXIAH.com forums, the new expansion/DLC is "the same old shit with this update, just more waste of time." So why are you still playing? I know why I am back to playing. I've bought the game twice and originally played at release and I don't have one [...]]]></description>

		<title>Alpha Protocol: When Role-Playing Games Should Just Be A Role-Playing Game</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I picked up Alpha Protocol on Steam (a week before the massive summer sale, which makes me furious) much to the dismay of my friends and against the multitude of reviews bashing the game. I've been waiting for this game since Obsidian announced it forever ago. I was ready to see what they could do on their own without Bioware's legacy backing them up. In conclusion, Alpha Protocol was a pretty awesome ride.]]></description>

		<title>Just Another Look Into the Future</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So my recruiter is saying my NOA/contract is on the way and I need to prepare my tax papers. I'm not celebrating yet until I have a signed contract to go along with a location and start date. In case, you weren't aware. I applied, got accepted, and had my documents forwarded for final review [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Wheel of Fate is Turning #1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thank you work, for taking away my day off. Of course, whatever plans I may of had don't matter. Thanks also for subtlely threatening to fire me if I dare tell you otherwise. I will not be attending Xanbats #3 this week. Oh well, my Ibuki needs a lot work anyway. I might just give [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;ve been busy doing nothing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So my friends have been asking me: what's up with the blog? Honestly, I've been torn between too busy to post and generally not in the mood. However, now things are a little less hectic and I find that I might as well update people on what's going on. For starters, I needed some cash. [...]]]></description>

		<title>My look at the N900</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I got the N900 finally. I have to say, if you consider yourself an average power-user and you're looking for a hot new device, skip this one and wait until the next Maemo device comes out later this is year (or more likely, early 2011). That's the pretty much the end of it so [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bad Ideas Reinvented: Opera Unite is the new Kazaa?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why is Opera trying to launch a file-sharing service in their browser? I like Opera; I'm using it right now. I just don't understand how this won't devolve in to massive networked illegal activity withot active moderation. And then, if the service is actively moderated, aren't we still at the mercy of some stranger middlemen? [...]]]></description>

		<title>FFXI Lesson #2: Why you were kicked from the PT</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Because you suck. It's actually that simple. I'm not saying you didn't do your job, maybe you did your job excellently. The primary reason I've seen people kicked from a party was that they decided to talk instead of play. That includes arguing with the party leader and spamming the party with foolishness. This also [...]]]></description>

		<title>FFXI Lessons #1: How to be a Good Leader</title>
		<description><![CDATA[NOTE: I noticed people have run across my blog while searching for this topic so I went ahead and let them know what's up. Since I'm only level 53, I can really only speak for running an experience party. Playing FFXI is all about partying. In fact, for your first 30 levels, you would be [...]]]></description>

		<title>The start of the decade is just another year: 2010 Resolutions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Image via Wikipedia I don't like making resolutions because they're so often broken. However, I have a few things I really need to do so I went ahead and made a few. I ended up with a lot of resolutions (well to me at least, usually it's like no more than three). I'm going to [...]]]></description>
