Goodbye Speedlink Friday

Sad to say. I’m retiring it because I don’t actually read news and blogs in-depth enough to be able to coalesce my thoughts around a bunch of items every week. I thought it would be fun, but it seems like a drag and something I just never get to.
So the next question is, what feature […]

It’s finished: Binary Sea’s new site and album Compass

OK, better late than never, right? Here’s the announcement: my brother Shayne and I have been working on an electronic music album under the moniker of Binary Sea for over a year now, and I’m terribly pleased to tell you that as of yesterday, our new album Compass is ready to be purchased from our […]

What happened to Speedlink Friday?

Good question! I was excited about launching this feature a couple of months ago, but somehow I keep loosing a block of time to work on it. I don’t know if any other bloggers feel this way, but I find it much easier to jot down some thoughts in my head than to try to […]

Chewing the fat

I thought it’d be fun to write a conversational post about all the stuff I’ve been doing and thinking about lately. I always like it with other blog authors open up about their personal lives, so I figure I shouldn’t be an exception. Enjoy.
Hey there. Nice to see ya. Glad we could have a chat. […]

Whiteboard Sessions

I’m currently in Reston, VA for The Whiteboard Sessions, a one-day church leadership conference. So today won’t feature the last installment of God is the Ultimate Travel Agent. However, I’ll be blogging later today on what’s been going down here, so don’t be dismayed. But for now, over and out!

New and more frequent blogging schedule!

As some of you astute readers may have noticed already, I changed the links at the top around a little and added a favicon to the site. That’s only a tiny update compared to what’s coming next week, and I’m very excited to share with you what I’m planning.
The Monday Light weekly photo series has […]

Call for feedback redux

As promised, I’m reiterating my call for feedback so that I can better server you, my dear readers. I decided I’d do something more intelligent than list some questions in a blog post, so I’ve created a short survey you can fill out (very quick, shouldn’t take more than a couple of minutes) that will […]

That’s award-winning blog to you, kid

Yes, you read it right. Not only is this a hip, groovy, out-of-this-world blog, but it’s an award-winning, hip, groovy, out-of-this-world blog. That makes all the difference, and don’t you forget it!
The award in all its pearlescent glory:

Actually, the sad truth of the matter is that I received this award on February 5th. Five. Numero […]

Getting down to brass tacks — soliciting your feedback!

UPDATE: go here for a newer, better way to submit feedback. Comments here have been disabled. Thanks!
And if you don’t know what that expression means, here you go. Sometimes I actually look up stuff I write to make sure I’m not saying something totally absurd!
Anyway, here’s the scoop. I originally started this blog as a […]

The Sword of the Spirit, Mac-style

I’ve been thinking I need to find a useable way to be able to do Bible study while on my long bus commutes, since trying to carry a big Bible around and hold it open when typing notes is pretty wacky in such a tight space. So, in a “duh” moment, I decided to search […]
