'Tower of Babel'
translator made - image mouthing words in English and they come out
Spanish. That's what they hope to do.
Personalized
news via the web - Northwestern Univ. is working on using TTS
(text-to-speech) technology, rss feeds and some visual graphics to deliver
your own personalized news show of all your blog posts. It's
interesting and will probably be mainstream in the next year or so.
iPod, Bye-bye click wheel? - iPod is going away from the ionic click
wheel. Why? Why! Why!!!!!
The Wikipedia and the Death of Archaeology - this is a very good point.

Ted
Haggard, Mark Driscoll & the Emerging Church - Over the Ted Haggard
scandal much as been talked about. Mark Driscoll, pastor of Mars Hill
Church of Seattle commented on it and everyone and their mother (not mine,
but probably yours) was blogging about it. Especially the emerging church;
Scot McKnight,
Bob Hyatt, etc. Today Mark
addressed his previous post.
Emergent Church: Friend or Foe? - Dan Kimball led a session at a
Outreach conference on "EC- frined or foe"? What a pointless question.
That's like saying Contemporary (or Traditional) Church: Friend or Foe...
the truth is their are some friends and foes in all of these kinds of
churches and I'm still going to do my best to befriend both people any how
Oxfam versus Starbucks - maybe Starbucks global practices aren't
as bad as everyone thinks. I said 'maybe'
McLaren set to speak
at Open Door Community Church - Open Door is a church pastured by gay
pastors. I don't know how I feel about this. I guess I don't
have a problem with him speaking there, but I think he (or I) should address
the sexual sin. I mean I would address other sexual sins, if I knew about
them so I would have to in this case also. I would however do it in
the most graceful way I could think of. So, I personally would turn
this speaking engagement down and just befriend those at Open Door including
the pastors.

teenagers to accompany Brian McLaren's book, "The Story We Find Ourselves
In"

finally launched their website.
N. T. Wright
speaks in Toronto (Audio) - I always enjoy N. T. Wright, especially when
he sings a Bob Dylan song. He's a genius and a scholar. More
importantly a humble follower of Christ.
