		<title>So. When do you play?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Monkey Butler Ninja gives his feedback on this question... 
"At what point does a burnt-out software developer like me take a dive into being a creative professional doing what he really loves? What avenues are there? Does it all come down to a slick portfolio or what? I'd like to think my technical/engineering background would give make me a unique asset, but who knows."]]></description>

		<title>Gaming can make a better world by Jane McGonigal</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In some sense I consider myself a visionary (maybe not the best in the world, but one nevertheless). Also, I consider myself somewhat of a gamer (certainly not the best here). One of the key&#8217;s about being a visionary is seeing something the majority does not see. Jane McGonigal is a visionary worth watching/reading/following.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Book Review: The Portrait &#8211; Understanding Portrait Photography</title>
		<description><![CDATA[<strong>The Portrait: Understanding Portrait Photography </strong>is a book void of all personality, which is ironic, considering how ‘personable’ the process of portraiture is. I would rate The Portrait a shade less robotic than an actual manual. I could be a bit harsh because the previous few books had obvious emotion infused into the chapters.]]></description>

		<title>Book Review: Presentation ZEN Design by Garr Reynolds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[...Who is this book for? Is it the same for the Designer working at Apple versus a high school student. Not really. Therefore, if you have NOT been formally trained in visual arts or you are one of those 'self-taught' AND you use PowerPoint (or Keynote) then absolutely 5 stars on this book. It is written for YOU!...]]></description>

		<title>Book Review: Visual Poetry by Chris Orwig</title>
		<description><![CDATA[...An overwhelming pro of this style of writing is you can just pick it up and go! Comparable to the Art of War, or the book of Psalms. Lots of great short sections of knowledge.  I was reading this book and listening to the audio book for The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People at the same time. If you are familiar with this book, you will find it actually has a lot of things in common and Visual Poetry could be the 7-habbits version FOR photographers....]]></description>

		<title>Book Review: The Complete Guide to Professional Wedding Photography: Creating a more profitable and fulfilling business.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[...The Complete Guide to Professional Wedding Photography is a stunning book. It is a wide format and hardcover, which makes it stand out from my recent books. Choosing these features screams ‘I care about quality!’ And all it takes is to thumb through a few of the pictures to realize not only does Damien Lovegrove care about quality, he executes....]]></description>

		<title>Book Review: How to Cheat in Adobe Flash CS4</title>
		<description><![CDATA[.... I think we all know that monkey… he’s the one that just ‘knows’ his stuff. Always seems to be one branch ahead of the rest of us. And we continue to find ourselves tapping him on the shoulder and asking, ‘Hey could you help me create (fill in the HUGE blank here) real fast?’ Well, that monkey is Chris Georgenes (don’t take offense my friend) and this book is what he wrote to show the world some of those creation processes!...]]></description>

		<title>Caprica: Movie Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[...The idea of the virtual world was clever and delivered well. Honestly, I do not think human kind is that far from making that a reality! This consumed a fair amount of the movie and unfortunately is a rather stretch to connect with Battlestar Galactica....]]></description>
