		<description><![CDATA[Google has entered the tech support arena: http://www.teachparentstech.org/watch The short help videos are slick, and they&#8217;re appealing, at least to the target audience: a younger generation that is very tech savvy with parents or grandparents who are not.  One of my sons came across them and asked if I thought they would be helpful for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the not too distant past, I was manning the reference desk, listening to a man say he had to come to the library to use the computers because his laptop was so badly infested with viruses that he had to throw it away. &#8220;You threw it away?&#8221; I asked, incredulously. &#8220;Yeah, it&#8217;s worthless now.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a lot of flag waving (especially by alarmed librarians) about the imminent demise of the book and libraries.  Actually, that&#8217;s not true.  The librarians are trying to fend off those who are buying into the idea that printed books, and libraries as we used to know them, are pointless vestiges of a prior era.  [...]]]></description>

A lot of people unloaded a lot of electronics.  About a third of it went to recycling (there is a recycling station near us that takes electronics).  We built three awesome systems, and the rest was divvied up among whoever wanted it.  Most of it ended up [...]]]></description>

But of course!  It made perfect sense to us because we weren&#8217;t thinking of the numbers as being sequential.  They were simply labels.  But the hapless patron had looked around and seen computers numbered in what seemed to be a sequential [...]]]></description>
