		<title>More Delays</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just popping in to say that the Food Network deadline was extended again, to November 15.
I think the reason is the unexpected departure of Mario Batalli from the network. As one of the Iron Chefs, they needed to replace him. Which they&#8217;re doing with a show very similar to &#8220;The Next Food Network Star&#8221; &#8212; [...]]]></description>

		<title>Food Network Contest Delayed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I made the video, the deadline was July 31, and I pretty much had to throw the video together over a weekend. Then, the deadline was extended to September 1st. Just now, I see it has been extended again to mid October. So, more waiting.

		<title>The Final Cut (Maybe)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I got some great feedback on my video, and I&#8217;ve made another cut to reflect them. I inserted 11 seconds at the beginning to set up the local food idea (something I&#8217;d cut out earlier in the editing), and to make up for that time I trimmed 11 seconds in several bits throughout the rest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Victim of Reality TV Syndrome</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
So, I&#8217;ve been watching &#8220;The Next Food Network Star&#8221; on (of all places) the Food Network, and I get to thinking, &#8220;Hey &#8212; I can do that better than they are!&#8221; And a little ad comes up saying that the network is now looking for contestants for the next season, and all it takes [...]]]></description>

		<title>Well, this is easy.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Turns put to be very easy to write on the weblog from the iPhone. Does this mean I&#8217;ll write more? Don&#8217;t know, but it can&#8217;t hurt.

		<title>Live Demonstration of Slingshot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The last week has seen a lot of changes to the Slingshot codebase that have made much of my previous work obsolete. That&#8217;s OK, though&#8230; the newest code takes care of a lot of the troubles I had getting things going.
I&#8217;m going to be doing a live demonstration of Slingshot in its entirety tomorrow evening [...]]]></description>

		<title>Slingshot On Target</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I last left you, I had moved a scratch copy of my application to a shiny new Joyent Accelerator, brought it current with Rails, and was preparing to migrate new created_at and updated_at columns to my database.
All that went well. Several of my models already had created_on (date) fields, but Slingshot needed more detail. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Exploring Joyent Slingshot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last Friday, I received the Slingshot SDK (Software Developer Kit). About an hour later, I had a copy of my Rails application running in an off-line, fully self-contained environment.
Of course, that was only the beginning, but it did right away show that you could use Slingshot to quickly deploy stand alone Rails applications. Slingshot provides [...]]]></description>

		<title>Successful Phone Call</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I talked with David Young of Joyent and Jeff Mancuso of Magnetk (the developer of Slingshot). They asked me some details about locallygrown.net and possible offline use cases for it. We all agreed that it could very well be a good match for Slingshot, so the project will proceed.
They&#8217;ll be sending me a developer&#8217;s kit [...]]]></description>
