		<title>Changing an LCD string on a Dell server remotely with Python</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here's a little Python script I cooked up for work. We often have to change the custom LCD string on boxes if the machine is given a new name. Before, we'd have to restart a machine to access the DRAC configuration to change the name. With this script, all you have to do is enable [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sending Growl messages over a network with Python</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have yet another script. This one is actually my first one in Python, which is kind of sad after all the good things I've heard about the language. This time I didn't actually write the entire script - I simply added to one that had already been written to give it more functionality. The [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPod touch as an auxiliary display</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I played around tonight with making my iPod touch an auxiliary display. I thought it may be neat to just have random real-time public tweets cycle through on it so I made the following. As you can see there's nothing too smooth about it yet - no AJAXiness implemented as this was purely proof of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Super simple BASH script to monitor a process</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here's a little BASH script that I made to monitor a virtual machine on an OS X box. Basically when its CPU usage gets higher than 75%, I get a Growl notification and a spoken warning from Bruce - one of the many Mac voices. One thing to note: ps -eo %cpu 207 &#124; tail [...]]]></description>

		<title>Preventing a volume from automatically mounting in OS X</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a previous post I mentioned that I was going to install Snow Leopard on a smaller, separate partition. After doing this, I realized that both partitions were going to be mounted when I booted into either operating system - Leopard or Snow Leopard. I wanted to prevent Spotlight from trying to index the files [...]]]></description>

		<title>Impressions of Snow Leopard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I got Snow Leopard in Friday. Overall, it's not too bad. Am I going to replace Leopard with it immediately? Unfortunately no. Though I appreciate the many under-the-hood advancements and some great new features, you don't have to try hard to figure out that Snow Leopard has some issues. Current issues: No Archive and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Send preset messages automatically with Adium and AppleScript</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After coming across this article today on Reddit, I decided to cook up a little AppleScript to accomplish the same task for us Mac users. Disclaimer: I would never do this to my boss, so if any potential employers are out there scoping out my blog please know that it's truly for entertainment purposes... OK [...]]]></description>

		<title>New blog, sorta</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I've been meaning to get a site back up since I've switched hosting, but haven't gotten a chance to think it out. For now I'm just going to throw up this WordPress blog that very well may be a solution for the time being. Most of my activity, though, will be at my Twitter account [...]]]></description>
