  • Romeo Elves: Paint the rock teaser

    Since Patti told me I was being a tease about the next elf video, I thought I’d post a little taste test. The final video has a time-lapse premise. I wonder how the peeps over at the church marketing labs would like our elf videos? Probably not snobby enough for them.

  • Less than perfect Apple experience

    So I don’t get flamed, let me first say that there are a lot of things I like about my new iMac. It’s pretty and it has loads of power. OK, that’s out of the way. Now I can complain about the things I’m not thrilled with on my new computer. It arrived with the…

  • Some people are just jerks!

    Over the last several months I’ve become a frequent lurker and sometimes participant at the Center for Church Communication Labs.

    I was just listening to a radio broadcast on the way home from church. In it the host and his guest were talking about the many shake-ups in the White House. The host wisely commented after the guest went on and on about how significant these changes are to the various departments cabinet members oversee.…

  • Blackle

    I saw this on an old high school friends Facebook. Sorry Sharna, you aren’t really old… but you are an old friend. It’s called "Blackle" and it’s a Google alternative that is essentially Google with a different style sheet. The theory is that by making the screen black/gray that the combined monitor energy savings will…

    After a week at the merchant area of the Armada Fair, I thought I’d share in a couple of merchant lies that I picked up on. Both of them have to do with the contests you enter. Just be aware of these: "A chance to win $1000 off home improvements" I asked the booth operators…
