We are live!
I posted on Monday of this week about my plan to share several posts this week based on my reading of Dan Kimball’s book, “They like Jesus, but not the Church.” That, as well as this week’s Friday playlist has been pushed back to next week because of a huge project that we have finally [...]
MobileMe
If you haven’t already heard, MobileMe services are set to go live on Wednesday evening. For me, this is so much bigger than the new iPhone because of the power it promises in terms of syncing across multiple computers including my iPhone. To read more, click here.
New Church Website
If you’re wondering why I’ve been so quiet here on the blog all week, I’ve been working on our new church website. With a weekend off from preaching, I’ve been putting together a lot of the content for this new site which we hope goes live sometime near the beginning or middle point of July.
Here’s our [...]
Blogging from Starbucks
I am posting from Starbucks for the first time. If you didn’t see it on the news this morning, Starbucks is finally reversing their trend on requiring their customers [who are already paying a premium on their coffee] to also pay for wi-fi service. As of today, if you have a Starbucks card that is [...]

My new machine is exactly like the previous one except for the color. I had a black one and bought a refurbished white [...]
Happy Birthday

After three years, I’ve accumulated 732 posts [some of which are actually pretty good] and received 411 comments. It’s been a [...]

The neat thing about Pandora is that in setting up that station, the database finds other artists and [...]
Working on the blog
Other than graduation activities, I’ve also spent some time this weekend doing some spring cleaning here on the blog as well as installing some new back end features as well. Here’s what I’ve accomplished.
First, the front end stuff…
The first few I have actually added in the last few weeks. First, in the side thoughts section, [...]
Have you started twittering?
I’ve now been using Twitter for about 3 1/2 months. Sometime in the next few days, I’ll post my 100th update. If you are an RSS reader of this blog, you’ve probably noticed the daily updates that get posted to the blog from my Twitter account, but I’m guessing many of you have no idea [...]
