Man, the iPhone coverage out there has just been way over the top. I’m used to the Apple hype machine, but this is nuts. If I were a traveler from another planet or from a past epoch of world history, my initial assumption would be that the iPhone must be some kind of magic talisman [...]
I’m down here in Phoenix, AZ for the God’s Media Army conference hosted by Extreme Prophetic (XP). I’ve known about XP and all the work Patricia King and her team have been doing to advance the Kingdom of Heaven on the earth for some time now, and I’m terribly excited to be here witnessing and [...]
Here’s a funny story. Years ago when 37signals came out with Basecamp, I decided I’d develop my own rival PHP version of the software because I didn’t like some of its features and design decisions at the time. I quickly grew obsessed with “beating” 37signals, to the point where I actually felt hostility towards them.

Well folks, I’m still alive, God is still good, and I did launch the Web site today (Friday, although I’m posting this at midnight on Saturday). Praise God!

I was a Second Life resident back [...]
Speaking of iLust, am I the only one who finds it really annoying that whenever any new piece of multimedia technology comes out, somehow porn ends up in the online discussion?
New photo management software: “now I can manage my porn collection faster!”
New smartphone: “now I can watch mobile porn on a bigger screen!”
New content server: [...]
I don’t have much to say at the moment, other than my Macworld experience yesterday was quite enjoyable! I wish there were more Christian gatherings with the level of excitement and enthusiasm that was tangible in the air on the expo floor!
In case you’ve been living under a rock the past few months, Apple was [...]
Next week, I’ll be going on my annual pilgrimage to the holy site of all true believers: Macworld. Yes, I mean believers in the One, True Way of Apple. All hail His Holiness, Steve Jobs the First!
Seriously though, I am excited to see what Apple has up its sleeve this year. 2006 was definitely the [...]
