		<description><![CDATA[I went to BO Concept&#8217;s free wine and pretzels party last week and my words of wisdom made it onto their promo video (fast forward to 1:50).

		<title>The One Word Branding Test</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Brands are always dying to know what customers think of them. I came across a site that tells them just that &#8211; brandtags.net. It shows you a brand logo and you respond with a word or phrase that pops into your head. You can then see what other people said in a &#8220;tag cloud&#8221; format, [...]]]></description>
