		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a long-winded off topic post about my obsession with portable tech. I&#8217;ve always felt restrained while blogging and reporting from the road, with heavy laptops, multiple devices, too many cords to carry, and not enough screen real estate. The dream for me has been a lightweight exact replication of my two-screen setup at my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just became a recent convert to e-readers. Got a Kindle, but not wedded to this specific device. I really like the whole category now that I&#8217;ve got one in my hands. I&#8217;m enjoying reading books on a device rather than holding a book and flipping pages. I do most of my personal reading in bed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Vector1 Media runs on a platform of open source technologies. We use WordPress for blogging and Joomla for our content management. The experience overall has been a positive one, but there are some limitations. In some sense, it&#8217;s &#8220;you get what you pay for&#8221; in terms of these limitations, but it&#8217;s also a factor of [...]]]></description>

Could be a neighbor or the Jehovah&#8217;s witnesses again. I make the trip, slightly grumpily, and am surprised to see a four year old boy who I&#8217;ve seen [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve long contemplated the best computer for conference or in-the-field journalism. I hate lugging around a heavy laptop that&#8217;s overkill for the simple text and voice recording that I do at a conference. I need very little computing power to record the details of an event as it&#8217;s happening, and my ability to collect information [...]]]></description>

Angus Stocking is a freelance writer, registered land surveyor and regular contributor to American Surveyor magazine.

I&#8217;m adding another post to the blogosphere about the stupidity of erratic and changing travel policies. Today, the issue was parking at the Stapleton Park and Ride. They instituted a new fee, when it&#8217;s been free for years. I don&#8217;t mind paying the $1/day, since [...]]]></description>
