What is a feed?
If you&#8217;re used to surfing the internet and viewing blogs, you probably already know what a feed is. If you don&#8217;t, then read on. A feed is basically way for a blog&#8217;s or website&#8217;s visitor to subscribe to the site using a web page, feed reader or email to subscribe.
New posts are automatically delivered to the chosen subscription method so that the user can read new posts from their favorite topics whenever they are updated, without having to surf from site to site looking for new posts ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<h1>Cuil - The New Google?</h1>
<br />
Is Cuil, the new kid on the search engine block, really as good as the developers say? We checked, and the results are NOT so promising...
<br />
First of all, the design of Cuil's search results page is very inconvenient. You just can't find what you're looking for!
And the results themselves seem to be completely irrelevant and definitely not what what the user searched for. Read on and see what Cuil gives us when we search for "Windows"...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Often when your desktop freezes, or the taskbar disappears when you close a program, you don&#8217;t normally have to restart your computer, as often this just the case of explorer not responding. To fix this, open Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete. Click on the Processes tab and look for explorer.exe. End it if it&#8217;s there and go back to Applications. Click on New Task and type explorer in the box and run it. Your desktop should reappear in a few seconds.

		<description><![CDATA[
Assigning scheduled tasks and automatically waking your computer is very useful, especially if you want your computer booted and virus-scanned before you arrive at work. There are various programs to do this, but it&#8217;s not that hard to do it manually.
1.First go to Control Panel and choose Performance and Maintenance. Click the scheduled tasks icon.
2.Next click on Add Scheduled task to open the Scheduled Tasks Wizard.
3.Browse for the program you want to run or select it from the list. Type the name and select how often you want it to ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
I found an article on the web the other day about automatically defragmenting drives and thought that I might just as well post a tutorial about it here. Basically, this allows you to defrag any drive by right-clicking on it and choosing &#8220;defrag.&#8221;
To enable this, open notepad and paste the following code:
;              context_defrag.INF
; Adds Defrag to the right click context menu in Windows XP
[version]
signature=&#8221;$CHICAGO$&#8221;
[DefaultInstall]
AddReg=AddMe
[AddMe]
HKCR,&#8221;Drive\Shell\Defrag\command&#8221;,,,&#8221;DEFRAG.EXE %1&#8243;

Next save it as context_defrag.inf onto your desktop or basically anywhere&#8230; (Note: be ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Tired of your XP? Want to buy Vista? Well, don&#8217;t. Vista is still full of bugs and not reliable yet. So what&#8217;s so good about it? Most people like the new and pretty looks.
It&#8217;s a great idea to mix together the good things from both Windows systems: the reliability of XP and looks of Vista.
To do this we need to change the boring XP theme to match the design of Vista, which is not exactly as straightforward as copy-paste, as XP only allows its own handful of themes which are ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Keyboard shortcuts are one of the fastest ways to perform actions and commands.
Your XP has several shortcuts. You probably know some, like Ctrl+C (copy) and Ctrl+V (paste), but are you aware of the more advanced commands such as minimizing all windows  (WinKey+M or WinKey+D) when you need something from your desktop, or Winkey+E when you need to open My Computer fast?
Here are some of the shortcuts you are likely to need:
Delete- Del (Note: to permanently delete a selected item, press Ctrl+Del.)
Copy &#8211; Ctrl+C
Cut &#8211; Ctrl+X
Paste &#8211; Ctrl+V
Undo &#8211; Ctrl+Z
