		<description><![CDATA[
Today Apple unveiled the much rumored iTablet called iPad. The abilities of the device (or lack of) have already caused lots of conversation out there. I naturally decided to concentrate just on user interface of the device. So, how does the Apple&#8217;s new toy go around the bends? I&#8217;ve made a quick analysis via Engadget&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This article goes about to paint a hypothetical future where megacorporations rule the world, plus just how that might happen. Today&#8217;s subject is Apple (includes some speculation of new product release).
First things first, what is a Megacorporation?
According Wikipedia,
&#8220;It refers to a fictional corporation that is a massive conglomerate, holding monopolistic or near-monopolistic control over multiple markets (thus [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some months ago I was questioning if Apple was becoming evil (Is Apple becoming evil?), and at least with some parts, it seems to me it&#8217;s steadily steaming towards that direction. In the end I quoted a somewhat famous movie:

A fellow in University of Art and Design, in Helsinki has created new user interface prototype as his master thesis. It&#8217;s made with Flash and what&#8217;s more, you even get to play with it.
It has quite distinctive OS X taste and smell on it as it&#8217;s clearly Apple inspired. It&#8217;s hard to make any conclusions [...]]]></description>

It seems that Synaptics are about to release new touchpad, one that it able to register 10 fingers at the same time. Tech itself seems mighty compact and quite ready for some serious manufacturing. Also, with the new touchpad, they&#8217;ve developed a demonstrator which has an OLED screen underneath and the new multitouch touchpad above. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s interesting how the web interfaces, now that the web is actually becoming a  platform for real applications, are doing some of the same exact mistakes that desktop interfaces have done in the past years (well, in all fairness, some are still doing). I&#8217;m guessing one of the reasons for this is that the visual designers [...]]]></description>
