"The Web -- For Such A Time As This?"
In a great article this month -- "Turning the Mainline Around" -- did Christianity Today overlook the obvious? I thought so.... IMHO.

"Socio-Technical Humanity?"
"Technology as Part of the Image of God and Task of the Church"
Interesting article by one of our driven global (internet) evangelists. He'd welcome your comments, everyone.

"Killer App?"
Just discovered the 'killer app'... according to a senior exec at Yahoo. I'd have to heartily agree with him. See "Got Change for a Blog?".

Blog Party?
Hey, no fair. Wendy's organizing a Christian blog party, with Wi-Fi and everything.... but it's in Canada. Why not an Indy (Indie?) blog party before summer's over?

Slowing the Speed of Light:
Interesting article purports that the speed of light has been slowed to the speed of the Indy 500. Really. I'm not kidding. LOL.

Cover Your Ears...
Mike Wildey, evangetech, has just invented a 'high tech' method of alerting all Christians in a community to come together in prayer.

Government Information Awareness?
Pardon this brief departure from our central focus -- but perhaps it's not all that unrelated. This CCN story re an MIT project is (IMHO) right on the money, as it demonstrates one more way in which technology now offers a new way to prioritize information you're interested in, and which ultimately affects our community life together. The irony is that it's prioritizing information for us, about those who lead us.
The GIA site's quote from Madison is excellent... "Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to be their own governors, must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives. A popular government without popular information or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy or perhaps both."
Likewise, the CNN story sub-header is right on... "Solid info will rise to the top?" Or perhaps as I have termed it over the years... "Truth will prevail. Truth at the speed-of-light will prevail at the speed-of-Light".

Laptops Outsell Desktops:
New article this morning at CCN.... And with a great percentage of them being outfitted for "wireless", perhaps we're on the right track installing wireless early in our life here at the center. Thanks Jeff for your help with this.
