		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve never quite understood why no one writes PHP libraries in C. The platform completely supports it. In JSP, when you need a tag that doesn&#8217;t exist and none of the 10,000,000 Java classes that you&#8217;ve installed with your latest and most buzzword-compliant framework supply it, you write it &#8212; in Java. You compile it [...]]]></description>

Basically it allows for a user-friendly way to add images to drupal nodes by creating the image as a node itself.

For years I&#8217;ve employed a system of identifying the sources of my spam, but it has not been as successful as I would have hoped. I own quite a few domain names, and I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The release of Drupal 5 creates a wondrous plethora of feelings inside me. They range from a curious awe to a less curious nausea. It also leads me to a long list of questions. Questions such as &#8220;Did they fix the API?&#8221;, &#8220;Did they fix any of the scalability and performance issues?&#8221;, and &#8220;Does it [...]]]></description>
