		<description><![CDATA[A study of YouTube videos about vaccinations found that those presenting a negative view were more likely to have unsubstantiated information in them, and also tended to be more popular.  I&#8217;m not sure why anyone is surprised by this.

North Americans are less inclined to see their phones as all-purpose devices as Europeans do.  One comment made was that Europeans refer to their phones as their &#8220;mobile&#8221;, instead of &#8220;phone&#8221;.  The [...]]]></description>

It looked very similar to Ubuntu during the startup process, and left me at KDE desktop instead of a Gnome desktop (hence the K in the name).  I&#8217;ve come to prefer [...]]]></description>
