		<title>Lost is a Travesty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was doing my daily rounds of sites that I visit and noticed that The Big Lead had a post about Lost.  My hope was that they were going to make fun of the nonsense and explain how many times they laughed out loud.  Like when Hurley was doing yet another slow-motion scene.  But of course not.

		<title>SEO, To Hyphen or Underscore URLs Revisited</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve seen a lot of SEO Experts and many SEO tools recommend that you should be using hyphens in URLs rather than underscores, one example was Ann Smarty over at SearchEngineJournal.  For the disadvantages of the underscore in URLs she says:
Traditionally it isn’t seen by search engines as a word separator (this is slowly changing now)

		<title>Speed Up Gmail&#8217;s POP Fetching</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My previous post talked about how to switch from outlook to gmail because of speed and ease of use.  From my experience, I noticed that Gmail&#8217;s POP fetching for email accounts that I added were not as fast as I would have liked.

		<title>Tips + Guide to Switch from Outlook to Gmail</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We want our email, and we want it fast.  The goal of this guide is to replace outlook as your primary mail collector with Gmail.  I just took the plunge and it's been such a huge improvement that I want you to benefit as well.  We want Gmail to open as if it's an application, save it's position on your screen, and notify you of new emails just as Outlook does.

		<title>Gmail Notifier Not Working? It&#8217;s because of HTTPS</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve encountered a simple, yet annoying problem when it comes to Google&#8217;s Gmail Notifier.  It turns out that if you select the option to always use HTTPS, then the notifier will not work.  The fix can be seen on the Notifier page, which is a registry edit.
Surely Google can do a better job of notifying us of [...]

		<title>amazonaws.com AKA Amazon EC2 is Being Abused</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you recently discovered a long list of amazonaws.com IPs listed in your websites stats and wondered what&#8217;s it for?  I was under the assumption that if I saw those IPs it&#8217;d probably be good news because I thought Amazon&#8217;s Elastic Compute Cloud had reputable clients.  It turns out that Amazon&#8217;s EC2 is a breeding [...]
