Office Live demo

I mentioned Office Live Workspace last week.  Robert Scoble posted a video interview/demo that shows the possibilities.  I signed up on the wait list tonight.  I’m eager to check it out.

Open ID

I’ve posted previously about social networking and the church, focusing particularly on the issue of identity because I believe it’s among the first technical issues to be addressed to make these efforts successful.  Every social networking site in the world (and many other sites) require you to create an account to use the site.  As [...]

He preached all six services

On Monday I blogged about our Christmas Eve services and mentioned that Adam had the flu. Today, Adam posted the full story. He explained that he was up all night and only napped a couple of hours Monday morning. With help from the medical team, he was able to preach all six services, [...]

That’s a lotta services!

Every year Resurrection has to adjust its Christmas Eve service plans as the day of the week changes.  Several years ago we started having services the night before Christmas Eve ("Christmas Eve Eve").  Our senior pastor encouraged church members to attend Eve Eve to leave more seats available at prime times on Eve.
This year, [...]

Will I see penguins?

Yes.  On our upcoming trip to South Africa I’m told we will see the famous colony of "Jackass" penguins in the Cape Town area at Boulder’s Beach.  Maybe I’ll take some pictures.

Office Live Workspace

Last month Blaine Barry, an intern on our Student Ministry staff, died of brain cancer.  His small group includes Chuck Russell and Traci Bazzelle of our staff.  They helped organize a group of volunteers to work at Kansas City’s new downtown arena, selling merchandise at the Hannah Montana concert on Monday night, to benefit Blaine’s [...]

Good idea, Nick

After seeing my post about dinner at Rendezvous last night, Nick Nicholaou said we should go to The Commissary.  Alfred saw Nick’s comment and took us there for lunch!  We thought we were coming to Memphis for a very important meeting with Shelby, but really it was for a barbeque tour.  The meeting has been [...]

Arena implementation planning

Brian, Travis, and I are in Memphis to meet with the Arena team to begin planning our implementation.  We are going to begin the process of detailed gap analysis tomorrow.  We’re also hoping to go home with the first draft of our implementation timeline, including a target "go live" date. 
Before getting down to serious [...]

IE7 woes

Seems I’m not the only one who has abandoned IE7 after initially being a supporter. I switched to Firefox and Google Reader over the summer when my IE7 feeds stopped updating and I couldn’t figure out why. Now that I’ve been using Firefox for several months, I can say I’ve become a total [...]
