		<description><![CDATA[(or, how I got curious about linked data) I was very conscious while working on Community Mission at the wonderful Rewired State DotGovLabs weekend that I was following in big footsteps. I worried the room was thinking &#8220;but we&#8217;ve done this before&#8221; during the presentation, but the debates and discussions did leave me with a [...]]]></description>

They don&#8217;t give you the full picture &#8211; the best bits of meetings are normally when someone says &#8220;please don&#8217;t minute this&#8221; &#8211; but they tell us a lot.They give us insights into process, debates, promises made, community bugbears. We also have a lot more discussions going on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two very inspiring events yesterday give me the chance to update Small Circles of Kindness. First up was Scraperwiki&#8217;s Birmingham Hackers and Hackers Hack Day (#hhhbrum). A mixture of journalists, ex-journalists and bloggers with their own different missions came together with friendly developers, most of whom had no particular preferred subject but a burning desire to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Modern websites are not just a set of pages sent between computers and consumed by passive pairs of eyes. The best websites are living, breathing communities, full of ever-changing content and lively debate, witty exchanges and with a bustling calendar of real-life events.
