		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago Google announced a change to Search, awkwardly named (as is their wont) Google Plus your World, and the Google first responders have responded with suitable outrage (as is their wont). For a good rundown of all the noise read this TPM post. &#8220;Google just broke it&#8217;s search engine&#8221; &#8211; that&#8217;s Farhad [...]]]></description>

It also turns out that Google makes more off iOS than it does on Android: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google has progressed since the days of 41 shades of blue. At least in the user interface of their products. I had no insight into whether this reflects a change in the underlying process. But now there is some news on that front. Yesterday Chris Wiggins (Creative Director at Google) made a post to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is I think by now well known that Google&#8217;s IMAP interface was an afterthought that was awkwardly grafted onto their splendidly useful label paradigm, and as a result promises chronic annoyances for those actually using it full-time. You could follow Google&#8217;s prescriptions for client configuration &#8212; here I will be talking about the OS [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google has transitioned from a &#8220;growth company to a cash cow&#8221; &#8212; that&#8217;s the conclusion of Michael Copeland and Seth Weintraub, writing for Fortune: Long-term projections for growth in the search business are more in the 15% to 17% range. Yet analysts estimate that 91% of Google’s revenue still comes from the AdWords and AdSense [...]]]></description>

First, I must clear the air: I am a staunch Free Software advocate. And specifically, I take [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back at the height of the Soviet Union, the story goes, a biologist named Lysenko won the favour of über-dictator Stalin, in major part due to his notion (not original to him, see: Lamarckism) that acquired traits can be passed on genetically i.e., inherited. This scientifically unsubstantiated but emotionally appealing idea, which served the general [...]]]></description>
