		<title>The Reverb Effect</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve worked at WebWorks for nearly 14 years.  In that time, content delivery costs and methods have changed significantly.  WebWorks Publisher enabled technical writers to escape the joys of hand coded WinHelp files.  Browsers opened up the web and enabled sophisticated HTML help run-times.  Google made it possible to find your heart&#8217;s desire in the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Snowman Donut Award</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ePublisher 2010.3 shipped on January 13th, 2011.  Those of us in Development gave a big sigh of relief.  And our favorite Sales manager, Christopher Ward, presented me with the coveted &#8220;Happy Snowman Donut&#8221; Award.
Since I don&#8217;t want anyone saying I didn&#8217;t share it with them, here&#8217;s a picture for your enjoyment.

		<title>Google Chrome == Internet Yes, Desktop No</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Google Chrome.  You know it.  It&#8217;s that way cool, very fast browser from the folks who gave us all a better way to search.  Well, that browser, Chrome, from Google?  Sometime around March, 2010, it completely forgot that your desktop exists.
What are you talking about Ben?
Oh, you don&#8217;t know this story?  Sit back and I&#8217;ll [...]]]></description>

		<title>Building a better AutoMap</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ePublisher includes tools to create designs (Pro), stamp them out (Express), and automate builds (AutoMap).  The thing is, AutoMap, as it exists today, is not always the right fit for our users.  It offers more capability than some folks will ever leverage.  For them, AutoMap is simply too expensive.  Others make extensive use of AutoMap&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is anybody out there there?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Market research is tricky business.  Knowing how to help your current customers is an easy affair (Focus, Focus, Focus).  Keep your ears open and they will tell you what they need.  Finding something new that both your current customers and potential customers find exciting is quite a bit more difficult.  I can&#8217;t ask a customer [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sketching the Future</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I, like most folks, am fascinated by the future.  The reason is pretty clear.  All present possibilities may become realities in the future.  Years ago, I was happy to wait for others to create a future for me (Thanks Steve!).  I began creating a future for myself back in college; began shipping a future to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Keeping Pace with ePublisher</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back a few weeks ago, I wrote &#8220;2009.4 and the missing feature&#8220;.  Customers gave that post some great feedback. People seemed to understand our goals for end-of-year releases.  It made sense to them that we dedicate time in our annual release cycle to focus solely upon stability.
As validating as it was to receive that feedback, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Focus, Focus, Focus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It never fails.  We ship the quarterly ePublisher release and the challenge begins anew:
What are we going to ship THIS quarter?
Marketing is analyzing, Sales is requesting, and Support is demanding.  And on the other side of those groups are our customers.  Some, we will delight. Others will curse our names, shocked to find that we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bugs and Car Talk Syndrome</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Bugs!  Isn&#8217;t that a great topic to blog about?  Well, maybe not.  Still, I wanted to talk about this subject because we&#8217;ve been missing out on an opportunity to learn from each other, make people happy, and improve ePublisher.  There is one catch.  Making this change happen requires a partnership between WebWorks.com and you.

A partnership [...]]]></description>

		<title>2009.4 and the missing feature</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Life here in the Engine Room continues on as always; a combination of brimming potential and vexing challenges.  I love creating new things.  I love to solve problems. Sometimes I get to do both at once. But not this time.
You see, we&#8217;re preparing to ship ePublisher 2009.4.  And 2009.4 isn&#8217;t about features.  It&#8217;s about making [...]]]></description>
