		<title>Showing Off My Dock</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a fan of Grace Smith&#8217;s blog and especially her Dock Series where by she invites a web / design professional to show off their dock, it&#8217;s a great way of finding out what other designers are using, comparing their set up to your own &#8211; as well as finding new applications. A while [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Search For An Invoicing Application</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After sorting out a task managing application (see my post on Teux Deux) I went on a mission to find a similarly impressive invoicing app. I was previously using Google Docs to create invoices; exporting them as a PDF and then emailing the invoice as an attachment to my clients.

		<title>Hipstamatic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Without doubt the best camera app for the iPhone!
I was a little unsure when I first looked at the app, it wasn&#8217;t free which always makes me second guess an app &#8211; how many times have you been caught out by an app with a good write up which doesn&#8217;t live up to the PR. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Teux Deux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve used a number of different methods to manager my task lists, specific todo software titles, iCal tasks and stickies on the OS X desktop; but none of them match up to the ease of use, speed of entry / reading tasks and the superb design of Teux Deux.
It&#8217;s a simple web application that shows [...]]]></description>

		<title>Using Wordpress for eCommerce</title>
