So we decided to do a series based off of the whole Web 2.0 deal. People trying to find comminuty and connections in all the wrong places... instead of trying to find it in Christ and with people who share & do life together.
So the series is here and starts this week. A micro-site was created to go along with it.
Check it out here.

So how do you keep it together? iGoogle, iCal, Mail, Google Docs, Txt Reminders, and the list goes on. I have TONS of stuff that I use to keep me informed and our Creative Arts Ministry together, but sometimes it still gets by me. We use Google Docs to keep our team informed about what is going on for the services, but how to you keep "your" team in mind, organized and getting new volunteers in each team. With all the tech out there... I've resolved to using post-it notes (I used the blue ones to mark spots where we really need to grow and up the volunteer base).

So I have an HP Desktop at Work and a Macbook at home. The HP runs Windows XP Home and the Mac runs Leopard. I wanted to connect to them via remote desktop to see and use files, but that would mean installing Windows XP Pro on the HP... or does it?!?
Stumbled on Log Me In.com, it's a desktop sharing client that you can use (for free). You can sign-up for other services including (audio share, drag and drop, etc), but I use ftp and I can send files directly anyways, but it's nice to access the computer from home when I need a file that's at the church office computer. So far, I love it and it makes life much easier. Check it out and let me know what you think.
J-del **over and out**

Okay, so I really can't wait until this conference comes around (and I'm not just saying that because our lead pastor is speaking, even though that's a bonus). But, it is just such a refreshing idea about not wasting time and just "getting to the point" and relaying that "one idea." Ben Arment has put a ton of time and energy into the conference with all the sponsors and I am blown away by the line-up of church planting leaders who are going to be there.

So it's only a few days away and I am very pumped about the Launch Conference coming up (which is a conference done by Student Ministries of Virginia or 'SMOV'). The theme for the weekend is "Revolution" and during the sessions I'll be talking about how being wrecked, renewed and real can effect our lives and ultimately the revolution of the church in society. Pretty amped. If you happen to be in the Charlottesville, VA area this weekend... give me a shout. Check out the lead in video I did for each of the talks (the last word will change each session):

So I've been surfing youtube uncontrollably since I came back from New York in December. Everywhere I turned I saw people advertising their youtube sights and I came across these guys while surfing: "Tony & Paul."
