		<title>Twitter in Government &#8211; Part 1: The Policies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a lot of momentum behind getting government connected to the people via social media. In effort to breakdown &#8220;what it takes&#8221; to get government on board, I&#8217;m writing this multi-part series on Twitter in Government. In the upcoming weeks I&#8217;ll discuss everything from the policies that govern adoption to the people who are responsible [...]]]></description>

		<title>Google Strikes Again&#8230;dum dum dum</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In 2005, Google put to the test the crowd v. the individual. Similar to our previous legal battle, this one looks at who brings the better answer to the question: a group of people with varying levels of knowledge on a topic, or a single person who&#8217;s an expert in the field. The answer: the [...]]]></description>

		<title>&quot;Not for use as pants&quot;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This quote is my favorite part about wearing a shirt from Woot!. While Woot! has taken the net by storm, Threadless was here first. Two great places to buy shirts &#8211; two different ways to buy them. Let&#8217;s skip the battle royal and jump right into what makes Threadless tick. Threadless has one of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting Connected &#8211; Personally and Professionally</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was also debating calling this post: &#8220;My parents are on Facebook and I&#8217;m in therapy,&#8221; but didn&#8217;t, obviously,&#8230;so I&#8217;ll just leave that as the intro. Facebook v. LinkedIn. Personal v. Professional. Friday night pics v. Weekday resume. It all faces off here, today. It&#8217;s no mystery that I&#8217;ve done extensive research on Facebook.  Facebook [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wiki it to me baby, uh-huh uh-huh</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wikis are an amazing thing. There&#8217;s no doubt in the view of the world, that Wikipedia is the best known wiki online &#8211; heck, it&#8217;s the first step for any research paper for anyone under 35 (I assume others are using libraries and other &#8220;research techniques). The Telegraph reported that Wikipedia has seen the plateau [...]]]></description>

For the record, my favorite two online &#8220;buzz&#8221; are my friends at BOL and The Buzz Report.  Now back to BzzAgent.

		<title>TV Online?!? Yah right! When pigs fly&#8230;or in 2004</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First of all, disclosure: I&#8217;ve worked for companies who&#8217;ve done business with both Brightcove and their competitors. There. You&#8217;re welcome FTC. Let&#8217;s dive, for five minutes or less, into online TV. Tons of players who came to the table: Joost, Google Video, Yahoo Video, and let&#8217;s just throw in AOL Video for kicks.

		<title>Google is coming home</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Google is coming home, to your home (and mine). How? Two words: energy (and dark fiber &#8211; but more on that in minute). Okay, that&#8217;s a few words &#8211; but deserves to be said again, energy. First, in interest of full disclosure, Google owns me. My email, my profiles, my docs &#8212; half of my [...]]]></description>
