		<title>The Case for the $500 App</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last year I started a company that is developing iOS software for the architectural services industry. The price of our first app, Architactile Inception for iPad, is $499.99. This makes it one of the most expensive apps in Apple’s App Store. As you might imagine we get several comments about the price of Inception. While generally, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Apple iPad &amp; The Bath Water</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love Apple. There, I said it. I love their vibe, their vision and most of all, their products. In fact, I'm so enamored with the iPad that I'm staking my future on it by building a company around developing software for iPad. Or at least I'm trying to. What's my biggest barrier to success?

		<title>What Foursquare Could Learn from Marco Polo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's no great secret that I don't get Foursquare. At least not for me. While I readily admit that I find the societal phenomenon that is Foursquare to be interesting, (like my friend Holly Wall) I just don't care if people know where I am or not. The truth is I feel it probably gives [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stop Whining About Openness, Loser.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My good friend Abby Waumbaugh (@abbyannette) pointed out an interesting post by Andrew Swenson (@wordpost) about the iPad and "openness" and future of broadcasting.  Andrew was riffing on themes presented by the great Doc Searls on same.  Andrews focus was really more on the openness as it applied to content creators but it prompted me to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why iPad?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For those just tuning it, I'm starting a business developing software for the iPad. When I tell people that I'm targeting iPad I get mixed responses. Fanboys want to gush about how the iPad will forever change the destiny of man.  Critics want to talk about netbooks, iPad's missing features or the forthcoming Microsoft Courier.

		<title>Starbucks Buys 122M Pounds of Unethically Traded Beans</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Full disclosure: I think most marketing is really, really bad. Why?  It's because I think most marketing people are more focused on manipulating the consumer into believing a half-truth than they are on anything even remotely related to their product.  In doing so, two things happen: 1.) Focus is shifted off of the product. (Or [...]]]></description>
