		<title>PHP Coding Standards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the past several years, I&#8217;ve been developing a coding style for PHP that all began with SimplePie. Since then, I&#8217;ve been polishing the standards from one project to the next to the point where I believe that I have a solid, rational set of guidelines that others can share and re-use. Any feedback that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Movie Review: The Last Airbender</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Last Airbender is an abomination to film making. It makes Matrix Revolutions look like The Godfather. Don’t go see it, tell your friends not to see it — don’t even wait until it comes out on DVD. Don’t waste a moment of your life on this film; you’ll thank me later. I love Avatar [...]]]></description>

Generally it&#8217;s a story of errands and the like, but then Matthew started telling me about how he wanted to look nice this evening.

Fast-forward to today, and my son is turning 5 years old. It&#8217;s been a wild 5 years so far, and he&#8217;ll probably even live another 5 years before I kill [...]]]></description>

		<title>Movie Review: Avatar</title>

Most of the 3D movies I&#8217;ve seen in years-past have been very gimmicky. The 3D is overbearing, and the directors seem to think it&#8217;s funny to break [...]]]></description>

		<title>Installing PHP 5.3 with mysqlnd on Mac OS X with MacPorts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Historically, I've always preferred to use Apple's built-in Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.x that comes with Leopard. However, after trying to compile PHP 5.3 from scratch and connect it with Apache, I decided to just use the <a href="http://www.macports.org/install.php">MacPorts</a> installer instead. That did mean giving up control of a finely-tuned Apache installation, but in the end, I think I've ended up with a better localhost system.]]></description>

		<title>Run Internet Explorer 6 (or IE7, or IE8) images in VirtualBox on Mac OS X</title>
		<description><![CDATA[These days I'm looking to save money anywhere I can. How about you? Whereas VMWare Fusion (as awesome as it is) runs around $80 USD per copy, Sun's VirtualBox is a free, open-source product for virtualization that runs on Mac OS X, Linux, and Windows.

If you've not yet read the related post, "<a href="http://blog.ryanparman.com/2009/01/07/run-ie6-ie7-ie8-images-vmware-fusion-macosx/">Run Internet Explorer 6 (or IE7, or IE8) images in VMWare Fusion on Mac OS X</a>," you should.

Of course this didn&#8217;t do anything, but it was just a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Run Internet Explorer 6 (or IE7, or IE8) images in VMware Fusion on Mac OS X</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By now, most front-end web developers have heard of the <a href="http://blog.ryanparman.com/2003/11/06/multiple-versions-of-internet-explorer/">Standalone Internet Explorers</a> (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer#.22Standalone.22_Internet_Explorer">Wikipedia article</a>). Although these are incredibly useful, they've always been hacky at best.

Because of that, we need to go the long way. We'll download the "officially sanctioned" VirtualPC images containing a time-limited version of Windows XP SP3 and Internet Explorer 6.0, and then we'll convert these images to the kind that work with VMware Fusion (which works on Mac OS X). This should only need to be done every 3 or 4 months when the images expire.]]></description>

I'm trying to understand what they have (to attribute their success to), and do not have (to attribute their lack of _blockbuster_ success to), and what are all of these companies doing that are better or worse than the behemoths like Apple, Google, Yahoo, AOL, and others?]]></description>
