		<description><![CDATA[For the last month or so I've been rather busy developing a trading platform for algorithmic trading, connected to LMAX (you should also check out their very interesting Disruptor framework). It's a rather comprehensive solution with both risk management, position management, back testing, data management on tick level, etc built in.

		<description><![CDATA[I've been a relatively heavy user of Evernote for a while now. I don't mean heavy as in using all of its features or storing massive notes or anything, simply that my everyday personal habits depend heavily on it.
