  • Looking for smart sermon podcasts

    posted on 

    @ ,

    Someone asked me for sermons and sermon podcasts with smarter preachers, with more intellectually engaging content. This would be in contrast to the many other popular sermon podcasts that might be described as “putting cookies on the bottom shelf” and everyday language to try to reach the largest number of people, per se. Here’s what I…

    Preparing for a conference workshop is typically done at a desk with a stack of books researched next to you, or behind you if you’re in the library or have a voluminous library of your own. In my case, it so happens, I’m getting the bonus of doing workshop preparations in a front row seat…

    [a guest post by Jeremy Smith, author of “By The Numbers: A Longitudinal Study on the Digital Ministry of America’s Largest Churches“] There is this notion floating around which has gained ground that a magic number exists for how frequently a church should post on different social media platforms to get the best reach every…

  • Flickr users with the largest number of photos uploaded

    posted on 

    @

    flickr.com is one of the most popular photo sharing sites on the Internet, but it doesn’t provide a ranking of its flickr users with the most photos uploaded (yet?). I’ve found flickr to be my favorite place to find photography inspiration and where I find photos in the Creative Commons, which may be used like free stock photography…

    Lists organize the world of tasks, places, ideas, people, and all kinds of things. There’s all kinds of web apps (and mobile apps) for specific uses like to-do lists, checklists, shopping lists, bucket lists, links (aka bookmarks), reading lists. But what about other kinds of lists? With all the collaborative power of people using Pinterest,…

  • How to Get RSS Feed for CaringBridge Journal?

    posted on 

    @ ,

    Short answer: you can’t. There is no way to get an RSS feed, and even if you were to build a script that converts the email notification into an RSS feed so you could get an alert via RSS, you would not be able to read the full text of a new journal entry without an Internet…

    YouTube culture is fertile ground that implicitly encourages video replies and mashups. To do that, people need a way to download videos. These unofficial Google Chrome extensions (not in the Web Store) makes it easier to download YouTube videos in formats like MP4, FLV, etc: Chrome YouTube Downloader (by mandel99) current version 2.6.20 Ultimate YouTube Downloader for Chrome (by JackBean)…

    With Google Reader discontinued, Feedly has emerged as one of the most popular RSS reader to subscribe to blogs and RSS-activated content feeds. Feedly is currently my RSS reader of choice too, I like its multi-platform availability and well-designed UX. But there’s one thing that’s not yet built-in (at time of this post)–a very easy way…
