		<description><![CDATA[In a worldwide survey conducted by the United Nations the question asked was: “Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?”
The survey was a failure because of the “wrong” words used in the survey question. Or were they wrong? You be the judge.

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;These busted boomers,&#8221; writes Constance Lavendar, &#8220;are clinging to an argument based on authority, hierarchy, and privilege; they despise digital democracy because it threatens their existence, challenges their authority, and breaks down their well-preserved hierarchy.&#8221;

		<description><![CDATA[Harry Potter is an extended tale of no, not just wizards and magic but the wisdom of the crowds in action. But that story got buried in the hoopla around the launch of Harry Potter &#038; The Deathly Hallows last Saturday.

		<description><![CDATA[For those of us involved in marketing and/or corporate communications, trying to make sure the organization is not misrepresented in the media, it&#8217;s not enough to pay attention to press releases, media kits, and getting the &#8216;brand police&#8217; department to flex some muscle.
Some people&#8217;s and many organizations&#8217; image are not managed by appointed brand guardians, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
If you&#8217;ve been following the controversy  over the 2012 Olympics logo, you&#8217;ll see a familiar pattern.
Many new logos, and brand names even, seem odd and &#8211;as Londoners complain&#8211; say nothing about them.
I have a strong opinion about this one. I think it&#8217;s not very inspiring. Vibrant, yes. But hey, I don&#8217;t live in London, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the penchant for standardisation in various industries, products and services, one would expect the same to happen in media circles as well. As we aggressively pursue world standards such as the ISO 9000 ISO 9002 etc etc we are seeing communication departments reaching out for that coveted honour of being labelled &#8220;ISO Certified&#8221;.
