		<title>People&#8217;s Planning Awards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read the passage below in the Guardian this morning. It struck me that that Steve Van Zandt was on to something very profound and embarassingly obvious. &#8220;In 1987, when Bruce Springsteen wrote the song &#8220;Ain&#8217;t Got You&#8220;, he was the biggest rock star in the world. He had vast estates in New Jersey and Beverly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Creative Destruction</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Poor HMV. Not only do they have to contend with a nasty case of the old bankruptcy. They also have to endure various half-competent criticisms leveled at their supposedly myopic management, kitchen sink merchandising, and absence of ‘passion.&#8216; I can’t say I have a lot of sympathy for the fallen giants of the British high [...]]]></description>

		<title>People&#8217;s Planning Awards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This one is fairly self-evident, and do excuse the pre-roll ad. It is infinitely inferior to what&#8217;s about to follow. Brazilian retailer uses real CCTV footage of shop being robbed. Execution is flawed on a number of fronts, but this is People&#8217;s Planning Awards, after all. You know where to go for your film craft, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is Business Banking SO Bad?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The British government has just announced their plans to create a government-backed bank with the sole purpose of providing financial services (read loans) to businesses. Their line of reasoning seems to be (so far) that such an intervention would ‘shake up’ the market and fill the lending gap that’s been created by the banks’ preoccupation with their [...]]]></description>

		<title>Leaf Inflation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ever wondered how has the percentage of logos containing leaves changed cince the 1950s? Wonder no more - Emblemetric has the answer, but the answer isn&#8217;t entirely surprising, it&#8217;s just a neat way to demonstrate the growth of corporate greenwashing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have seen Skype take all sorts of advertising directions in the past, none as human, honest and refreshing as this project by photographer John Clang. The Singaporean native continues the tradition of family portraiture by putting together Skype-assisted composite portraits of relatives separated by distance. The execution is beautifully simple, the benefit instantly evident, and the [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s Not Innovation if It Isn&#8217;t Dirty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My fortuitously early professional encounter with product innovation has had one lasting benefit &#8211; it demystified what has since become a very fashionable term. I never got the chance to internalise the concept of innovation. Every day I&#8217;d have a hundred and one things to do just to stay afloat, none of which involved reading the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bertrand Russell&#8217;s 10 Commandments For Teaching</title>
		<description><![CDATA[1. Do not feel absolutely certain of anything. 2. Do not think it worth while to proceed by concealing evidence, for the evidence is sure to come to light. 3. Never try to discourage thinking for you are sure to succeed. 4. When you meet with opposition, even if it should be from your husband [...]]]></description>
