		<title>RAM disks for fun and profit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some time ago I was digging through my very old files, back from Windows 9x days. One of the interesting things was a note I wrote to myself, explaining how to setup a RAM disk. While glancing through it an idea struck me &#8211; &#8220;can I use it for Tomcat and other Java stuff?&#8221;. It [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s wrong with PHP closures?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[PHP 5.3, along with many other features, introduced closures. So now we can finally do all the cool stuff that Ruby / Groovy / Scala / any_modern_language guys can do, right?

		<title>Web Application Elements: Templates</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things PHP does really well is templates. Actually, every PHP file is a template. This is rather unique feature, considering other platforms, like Java, .NET or Ruby. With PHP as a platform, the language itself is usually good enough for a template solution.
