		<title>Mama Knows Where to Get the Goods</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What a simply smart idea—set up outside the grocery store and collect food donations for the needy. September 5, 2010, I spotted Mama&#8217;s Pantry in front of Ralph&#8217;s supermarket in San Diego, Calif.&#8217;s Hillcrest neighborhood. on. The concept of fundraising food shoppers is so mind-boggling sensible, it&#8217;s stunning more charities don&#8217;t go to the food source—the local [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paul Thurrott&#8217;s Cruel iTunes Wit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Paul Thurrott&#8217;s RSS feed summary for his iTunes 10 review had me howling with laughter. &#8220;Apple&#8217;s latest version of iTunes is like a cruel joke foisted on Windows users.

		<title>&#8216;Can Ping Be Saved?&#8217; is the Wrong Question</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Apple&#8217;s social music discovery service isn&#8217;t even a week old and Fortune blogger Philip Elmer-DeWitt is asking: &#8220;Can Ping be saved?&#8221; Oh yeah?

		<title>Ping&#8217;s Alternate Reality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ping, Apple&#8217;s &#8220;social music discovery&#8221; service, has changed the selection of &#8220;Music I Like&#8221; to half Snow Patrol songs, one of which I&#8217;ve never played. LOL. I&#8217;ve finally figured out what&#8217;s going on. Apple technology is so good, so innovative, so remarkable that Ping pulls music choices from an alternate universe. The music is what [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Can Stay Five Minutes, or an Hour</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Welcome to my resurrection. I first started writing at joewilcox.com soon after registering the domain in December 1999. For years, I called the site &#8220;Chronicle of Technology, Culture and Stupidity.&#8221; In October 2009, I took joewilcox.com offline, briefly bringing it back for a few weeks in May 2010. I pulled the site to diminish branding [...]]]></description>
