		<title>The Perfect Gift For A Man</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most of my life I&#8217;ve had a secret interest in men&#8217;s issues. Secret for a lot of reasons but primarily I&#8217;m not sure too many people (men especially) realise there is such a thing. I&#8217;ve tried many time to have conversations with my mates about life, what&#8217;s going on in theirs and how they feel [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Letter To Bonds</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just found a letter I wrote to Bonds. I&#8217;m still not sure I really want to post this because it makes me seem weird. Oh well, when in Rome!

Dear Chesty,

I am writing to express both my satisfaction and devestation with relation to the discontinuation of the Bonds Lo-Rider Brief (mens). I first discovered this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Man Week: Being Young and Learning About Masculinity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Man Week and I thought I&#8217;d share some of my experiences and thoughts on masculinity. I&#8217;m mostly going to speak from personal experience because I&#8217;m not sure if my understanding of masculinity is universal. I suspect that it might be but I&#8217;m not going to be that presumptuous. Maybe Man Week can help me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Network Complexity and the Global Financial Crisis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I came across an article by Duncan Watts (via Noah Brier&#8217;s blog) about the complexity of networks with respect to the GFC.
Traditionally, banks and other financial institutions have succeeded by managing risk, not avoiding it. But as the world has become increasingly connected, their task has become exponentially more difficult. To see why, it&#8217;s helpful to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Burger Joints And The Paradox Of Choice</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Last Friday I went to a burger restaurant in Crows Nest called The Counter. Aside from being all about serving natural produce, the menu system is specific and invites you to &#8216;build your own&#8217; meal. The concept isn&#8217;t entirely original but the menu is broken down in to 6 sections;  type of meat, the weight [...]]]></description>

		<title>Time Travel Cheat Sheet &#8211; Everything You Need To Know To Get Humanity Up To Speed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

I just came across this at The Long Now via Noah Brier&#8217;s blog and it got me thinking. I&#8217;ve often wondered what I would do should I ever find myself traveling back through time. I&#8217;m ashamed to say I think I would be ill equiped both to steer humanity in the right direction and to profit personally. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Popmedium is back!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve never been much of a blogger. I used to have a Livejournal when I was younger and I filled it with half formed ideas and a whole lot of whining. It&#8217;s where I learnt about ego and I can honestly say it was a fairly self serving collection of words.
Next came Popmedium over at Wordpress.com. [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Internet Changes the Way We Make Sense of the World!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[not only struggled to find time to maintain this blog, I’ve also had serious problems keeping up with everyone else’s! So much so that I only just found this amazing video on Paul Young’s site. It blew me away! I’m no genius so it’s no wonder it didn’t occur to me before, but the internet [...]]]></description>

		<title>Facebook linked (loosely) with US Government</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wogtTQs8Kzw]
I have always loved a good conspiracy theory and when I saw the above video I got a small tingling in my loins that reminded me of a time when Fox Moulder was more important to me than any girl (a significant admission considering I was waist deep in adolescence at the time).
I haven’t verified [...]]]></description>
