			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.siliconcape.com/">Silicon Cape Initiative</a> launch event is tomorrow, 8 October 2009. Since the initial announcement early in September the community and organisers have been active.</p>
<p>More than 1000 people joined the online community, the launch event grew to accommodate 350 attendees, Western Cape Premier <a href="http://twitter.com/helenzille">Helen Zille</a> (one of the speakers) promoted the event on Twitter, a long list of sponsors have signed up and yesterday <a href="http://twitter.com/justinstanford">Justin Stanford</a> announced that Johann Rupert  and Dr Mamphela Ramphele will be speaking as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have finally decided to update my personal website a bit. The <a title="Old website" href="http://www.pshymorphic.com/backup-2009/" target="_blank">old</a> one was really crap and seriously outdated.</p>
<p>I have decided to try out <a title="Wordpress" href="http://wordpress.org/" target="_self">WordPress</a> this time round instead of rolling my own. Hey, all the cool kids are using it, right? It also gives me a good excuse to attend the next wordcamp.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be playing around with the theme, widgets, plugins and others things for a while, but please feel free to leave some feedback. Especially what themes and plugins you like.</p>
