		<title>HowTo: Sync Google Reader With Delicious Bookmarks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

I&#8217;ve been using Google Reader for about as long as I&#8217;ve been using Delicious. When it comes to finding new content I greatly prefer Google Reader over any other resource available, I also prefer Delicious over any other method for storing bookmarks. While sharing and starring items in my feed reader is convenient, it has [...]]]></description>

		<title>HowTo: Inkscape 0.47</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		



I love Inkscape, it&#8217;s no secret. Most of the images in my portfolio were created using Inkscape. It has a clean interface, just the right tools to do what I want, and it&#8217;s free. I prefer it over any other available vector image editing program out there so I jumped at installing the newest release [...]]]></description>

		<title>HowTo: Google Chrome In Ubuntu Linux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

For the past few weeks I&#8217;ve been using Google Chrome as my primary browser. I find that it performs very well compared to Firefox as well as making better use of screen real estate, even with the tweaking I wrote about last month. However, I still haven&#8217;t decided if it&#8217;s worth making the jump completely from Firefox, especially [...]]]></description>

Essentially making this post much easier for me to write now that I don&#8217;t have to drone on and on about which add-ons I use to streamline my favorite browser&#8217;s interface. I usually [...]]]></description>

If you&#8217;re impatient like me you won&#8217;t want to wait for Firefox 3.5 to hit the repositories to take advantage of its slick new features such as location aware browsing, and native open audio/video support under HTML5 . Luckily installing from source is a piece of cake. Simply download the Linux source file most relevant [...]]]></description>

Here&#8217;s the first of what I hope to be a series of posts in which I publish some sort of free content under the Creative Commons license. The idea for this design originated from a shirt in the movie &#8220;Step Brothers&#8221; with Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly. Though, the design itself is based off [...]]]></description>

		<title>HowTo: Change the Google Search Box Icon In Ubuntu Linux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

Earlier this month Google unveiled yet another of it&#8217;s favicons. Though some disagree, I feel that this version is a lot nicer than any previous iteration, especially the one they released June of last year. Popular productivity blog Lifehacker recently posted instructions on how to replace the old Google icon in the search bar with [...]]]></description>
