		<description><![CDATA[I've used most of the JS frameworks out there. They all share a similar strength. They make complex cross-browser scripting easy. With them, you can hook into events, set timers, perform animations and transitions, create popups, and in general make the browser window behave like a desktop app. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been working on a mobile video application for Facebook written in cakePHP. The client recently asked how Agile relates to progress. Clients like to see a &#8220;big bang&#8221; at the beginning and I typically do not deliver it. Why? The answer has something to do with an Agile process embedded deeply in my brain. <a href='http://www.benallfree.com/2008/01/01/im-a-slow-starter/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a fun thought: who is already working on a platform-independent social widget framework? This would be something where you can target both Facebook and OpenSocial apps using the same common code base. Our last attempt ended up being pure Facebook because there just wasn&#8217;t enough overlap. It seemed easier to make the app twice <a href='http://www.benallfree.com/2007/12/20/platform-independent-social-framework/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re writing a Facebook application, I think you should have a look at cakePHP. cakePHP, as you might already know, is the MVC framework for PHP. It feels a little bit like Rails, and a lot like slick PHP code. The only thing I don&#8217;t particularly enjoy about cakePHP is that PHP has no <a href='http://www.benallfree.com/2007/11/05/cakephp-and-facebook/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
