		<description><![CDATA[In 1996, I attended a presentation from Sun Microsystems about the future of computing technology.  It was a memorable presentation to me as they explained the notion of the network, more specifically the Internet, becoming ubiquitous and as reliable as the dial-tone of a land-line phone.

I was most interested in finding a SaaS solution that would integrate with Shopify.com, a hosted e-commerce solution.

Batteries have certainly come a long way but rarely does a battery perform to the level that is advertised by the manufacture. This is usually because battery tests are conducted under standardized conditions that may [...]]]></description>

Welcome to the age of Spatial Inquiry. ]]></description>
