		<title>New Textorizer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello all,
A new version of textorizer is available. What&#8217;s new:
- The size of the resulting image can be set in the control. It make it possible to produce images larger than the size of the screen.
- The control panel has been improved
- Textorizer2: better text placement, and smoother transitions of the text
Thanks for everyone who&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>QTQR</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Inpired by Duncan Robertson&#8217;s BBC Logo in QR Code, as well as various similar attempts to make QR codes look pretty (I particularly like David Blume&#8217;s), and challenged by @danbri I wrote a little QR code (de)generator. It allows changing individual pixels, as well as adding a picture. Screenshots:

Whether the altered QR codes are still [...]]]></description>

		<title>Textorizer fixed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since April, there&#8217;s been lots of reports of the application starting and only displaying a grey window. Since I couldn&#8217;t reproduce it anywhere, I had no idea how to fix it until a bunch of very kind people were able to help me track the bug down. So I am now really happy to announce [...]]]></description>

		<title>Commemorating the Moon Landing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;d done it a few months back, but I thought I&#8217;d revamp my textorized Moon Landing poster. The text is the transcript of the Apollo XI landing. 
This time, the SVG version is available for your printing needs.

		<title>Dutchr: learn any language in 24 hours</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a couple of years, I&#8217;ve been trying to learn Dutch, then Norwegian. And Javascript. I&#8217;ve failed at Dutch, but I&#8217;m still trying the other two. And to help me I wrote a little web application called Dutchr, which is basically a flashcard app: you give it a list of pairs of words or expressions, [...]]]></description>

		<title>New textorizer!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
There is a new version of textorizer available for download. It&#8217;s still the same deal, but it has been greatly improved: new fonts, new scripts, new settings, fewer bugs.
You can find it on the separate textorizer page, with examples and instructions.

Rik Penny from ripedigital, a long-time supporter of textorizer, has sent me this big glossy-paper poster of the 2009 fractal calendar. Many many thanks!

		<title>uncanny resemblance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Seen in Oslo&#8217;s Folkemuseum today. Looks very much like the 2009 calendar, or rather, Sierpiński&#8217;s Curve

		<title>ell aah peh eee en, er&#8230; hyphen?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here in Norway, many things work by email, and I&#8217;ve found myself having to give my email address over the phone about half a dozen times. Pronouncing, or even spelling out my last name in an intelligible way already takes a while, but my email address is even worse. Once I&#8217;ve had to describe what [...]]]></description>

		<title>2009 Calendar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It appears that my previous entry on calendars received some attention, so I thought I&#8217;d make a nice looking version for the New Year.

The design is somewhat arbitrary but it&#8217;s still possible to alter the parameters at the top of the JS file to change it. In fact there are now many more possible variations [...]]]></description>
