		<title>Ready, set, Go!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m currently experimenting with Go.
I would really recommend anyone who takes programming seriously to have a look at it. What I&#8217;ve seen so far is very nice. I mean VERY nice.
The concept and idea behind the language (we need a new systems programming language) is very good &#8211; I&#8217;m sure this will be big! And [...]]]></description>

		<title>The miracles of RAID</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day at work we had a harddrive failure! Ouch!
All our corporate files where suddenly inaccessible! This was caused by a malfunctioning harddrive in our main NAS box.
Fortunately we had bought a device with a two-disk RAID-1 configuration. To temporarily resolve the problem we simply had to remove the broken harddrive and reboot the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Return of involvement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not directly involved in marketing.
Henriette Weber (my good friend) didn&#8217;t care much for this fact and sent me her new book &#8220;Return of Involvement&#8220;.
In her own personal way she puts her heart and soul into explaining the marketing and corporate screw-ups and supplying a road ahead. Involvement! I felt closer to her after reading [...]]]></description>

		<title>Remember to flush!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night I was doing some network/socket programming. Just for the fun of it. This was done as I always do (it&#8217;s not the first time I&#8217;m doing this kind of programming) by building up the socket connection and running it through the stream handlers that the programming language library (Java/C#) provides.
Last night I found [...]]]></description>

		<title>Re-inventing the wheel</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Starting 2009 ABC-tool faced some challenges regarding development. The program has been undergoing some enormous changes since I joined the company and one of the biggest was yet to be seen.
Since the program was first introduced to the marked there had been a desire to have some sort of database underneath it all to hold [...]]]></description>

		<title>Microsoft XNA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a slow December which actually only featured a major release of ABC-tool I&#8217;m back with a rather simple post&#8230;
The past few days I&#8217;ve been playing around with Microsoft XNA &#8211; yes &#8211; it is game development!
I must say &#8211; the time I&#8217;ve had with XNA had been full of positive experiences! I really think [...]]]></description>

		<title>Minimizing memory footprint</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 

My work on ABC-tool keeps looping back to optimizing memory usage. The ABC-tool application runs on Windows PCs which means that it has a 2 GB memory limit (typically). The largest datasets I have every run across is about 150 MB in size – but this was XML-files and the data part was significantly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Visual Studio &#8211; Again!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Once again Visual Studio has proven troubleish!
I&#8217;ve spent the last hour trying to find out why our project at work wouldn&#8217;t compile (complaining about missing files) on other machines but would on mine! I went through every file in the repository and confirmed that it was up to date. I confirmed that the same files [...]]]></description>

		<title>Office 2007 formats</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t followed the great format wars over the last year or so &#8211; and I must admit that it had slipped out of my consciousness for a bit. Until I saw Mortens post the other day (warning: the link is in danish).
After reading this post my mind spent 5 seconds looping through all the [...]]]></description>

		<title>ZIP-files and Windows Vista</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At the moment I have some spare time to write something. For the silliest of reasons! I&#8217;m waiting for Windows Vista to extract the content of a ZIP-file.
Usually it has been the content of World of Warcraft addons &#8211; which generally doesn&#8217;t contain that many files. This time it is the win32 source code of [...]]]></description>
