		<title>Thinning my huge list of domain names</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have always had a mild addiction to registering domain names. Either because they were short, sounded &#8220;cool,&#8221; or I had some brilliant idea that I never had time for&#8211;I&#8217;m register-happy. Most of the renewal fees are spread out over the year, but around this time and again in January, I get hit with a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why off-stream Twitter advertising is good for Twitter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently came across (and started using) a new website called FeaturedUsers.com. They are a Twitter app ad network:
&#8230;If you&#8217;re a Twitter user, it&#8217;s a great way to get more followers and support your favorite Twitter apps. If you&#8217;re a Twitter app developer, it&#8217;s a simple way to start monetizing your application.
The basic idea is [...]]]></description>

		<title>My battle of wits with a domain taster</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most people that know me know that I'm a bit domain-crazy. Any half-good idea that I have usually results in a domain name purchase--mostly as a "just in case" I decide to actually develop it. Despite the fact that this is a self-enabling and productivity damaging practice, I still partake in it. However, I have significantly limited myself in terms of what I let myself purchase (the next step was locking my laptop in a trunk and burying it in the back yard).]]></description>

Vendor after vendor gives us prices that are just too high. It's getting frustrating and becoming clear why there are not many people doing what we're trying to do. I should be depressed right now.]]></description>
