Imagine a scene in the not-too distant future&#8230; after a frenzied period of leaks, rumours, claims and counter-claims, interspersed with no-comments, denials, and increasingly reliable and suggestive evidence emerging from component and sub-assembly manufacturers, Apple Inc announce the imminent release of The Perfect Gadget.
The mainstream press attend press conferences and briefings where Apple proclaim that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The new BBC News website is a bit too tall.  The Beeb have introduced an additional banner at the top of the page which is of very little use (other than cementing the BBC Brand across its sites) so I wrote a little greasemonkey script to remove both the banner and a few other [...]]]></description>

Perhaps it&#8217;s to do with the larger than normal amount of spam that&#8217;s been arriving today (for &#8220;larger than normal&#8221; read: one metric truckload).

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m in the process of rewriting the Worst Offenders plugin for the soon-to-be-released WordPress 2.5.   Before I make a tested and polished version of the code globally available, I&#8217;d be interested to hear from anyone who&#8217;d like to alpha test it.
As before Worst Offenders works cooperatively with other anti-spam plugins: its primary purpose [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For the last few weeks I&#8217;ve been testing out some geo-tagging software on my camera.  The concept is fairly simple, whenever I take a photo, the built-in GPS works out where I am and records this metadata within the photo.
The camera is already set-up so that whenever it&#8217;s in range of my computer the [...]]]></description>

The busy morning rush was so great that they&#8217;d streamlined the operations; one person greeted customers, took orders from several of us at once, and processed the payments.  This freed [...]]]></description>

This is one of those &#8220;maybe it exists but I can&#8217;t find it&#8221; ideas.
