		<title>Time to update hardware/software</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s that time again. I bought a new laptop for my business when my home-made desktop died in 2004. It was in the middle of a project, so I needed a new computer immediately. I went to Costco and bought an HP Pavilion dv4000 &#8211; which I have been very happy with. It was a [...]]]></description>

		<title>reCAPTCHA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I use a plug in called reCAPTCHA on several of my WordPress sites. It&#8217;s a little program that shows you a picture of a combination of letters for you to type in that prove you are human and not a spammer. I figured CAPTCHA stood for something about character recognition, but I was curious why [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sandbox security violation solution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been using the Kimili Flash Embed plug in for WordPress, and, of course, I&#8217;m always doing something a little out of the ordinary that&#8217;s not working. Recently, I&#8217;ve been trying to post movies. I&#8217;ll import the movie into FLASH which turns it into an FLV file. Then I add a skin and publish [...]]]></description>

		<title>Finally indexed!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yay! Finally, after all these weeks, ImpactsAlaska.com is indexed! Apparently, it really does just take 6 to 8 weeks for Googlebot to come back around and re-index you. Posting at http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Webmasters was definitely the key to finding out what was going on. I actually got a real, live Google employee answering one of my posts.

		<title>Bounce Rate</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m still working on ImpactsAlaska.com to get that Google listing back. Found a great video from Google about how to interpret the &#8216;bounce rate&#8217; of a site. Basically, the bounce rate is the rate at which people come to your site and leave immediately, for whatever reason. A typical site&#8217;s bounce rate ranges from 40%-60%. [...]]]></description>
