		<title>Fit for Purpose?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I have been playing King Arthur the Role-playing War-game  on and off now for many months – it is an extremely long and time consuming game. Rather depressingly I have just hit a bug: one of the quests that needs to be completed to progress through the game is broken: some armies do not spawn [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hidden Images</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was watching &#8216;Antique Road Trip&#8217; the other evening. At least, that is what I think it is called. It features a couple of antiques experts driving around buying stuff and then auctioning it to see who can make the most money. It is actually rather fun. Or perhaps I have finally succumbed to antiques [...]]]></description>

		<title>Political Compass</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
There is a reasonably good politcal quiz at http://www.politicalcompass.org/ which notionally tells you how &#8216;left&#8217; or &#8216;right&#8217; wing you are and how &#8216;libertarian&#8217; or &#8216;authoratarian&#8217;. My Tory boy mate Steve Tierney turned me on to it. I thought it might interest some of you.
Sadly, there is no value which brands you as the &#8216;worst kind [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dada and spam emails</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I get a lot of spam emails, most of them pushing porn, Viagra or offering me the chance to marry Russian girls. These emails usually have a random assortment of words in them to get past the spam filters, many of which I find strangely lyrically and compelling. These are taken only from a selection [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last post from GDC – I have just packed, have a few hours to shop and so forth and then it’s back to jolly old Blighty guvnor, stone the crows if it ain’t.

		<title>GDC day four: Sid Meier and Capitalism</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A fair bit to write about.
First off, my Blizzard quest (to find Esther a plush Griffon) has failed hopelessly. Finding the Blizzard stand at the careers expo I was confronted with this:

No big yellow question mark there I am afraid. I also really do not know what was going on there ? People standing in [...]]]></description>

		<title>GDC, day two</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Gosh, my hotel wireless is slow.
The Paradox people are great and have treated my essentially pointless ass with incredibly courtesy.  They have rented a flat near GDC where they are plying people with free drinks and nibbles(the Paradox special cocktail is rather tasty, the barman skilled and charming) and demoing some games – a team [...]]]></description>
