Notes from #thenines
Tomorrow I’ll be sharing another video from #thenines — from author Sky Jethani.
Pure greatness! Be sure and look for it and watch it. It’s worth all nine minutes.
But in the meantime, I thought I’d share my notes from the event — in their raw form.
I thought about cleaning them up some but instead, I [...]

The Idea Camp – Justice edition
Have I mentioned that I love the ideas behind The Idea Camp? It’s such a great un-conference, open and FREE (aka Pay What You Will) concept!
The event is based entirely around conversations with the “speakers” via interviews, Twitter and txt messaged questions, rather than a 45-minute lecture by some “expert” in his field.

Going dark
It’s no secret that I enjoy being online and connecting with others.
But being on vacation last week — primarily in international waters — forced me to forgo my daily habits and go dark online for the extent of our trip.
I loved it! It was a nice change of pace for sure. Granted there were several [...]

Jelly Telly is online
Phil Vischer (creator of Veggie Tales) has started a great new online venture in recent months :: Jelly Telly.
On his blog last year he walked through several of the big problems facing kids and media – specifically Christian kids and Christian media.
One of the problems he points out is that Christians are defined by what [...]

Things I’ve learned from Twitter (in the last 24 hours)
I was sharing with my life, Laurie, the other night that it’s amazing how intentional folks are on Twitter (and many on Facebook) about relationships.
I can send a txt message to 30 people and I don’t typically get any responses. I can share one message on Twitter – and within minutes 10 people from [...]

re: How M. Scott Peck saved my life
Finished Not the Religious Type last week.
My friends are going to hate hearing the stuff that I too to heart from this book.
Stage 1,2,3,4…
Bounded sets and centered sets…
Living a life where we daily listen to God…
Great stuff!
If you’ve got time today, the author of Not the Religious Type Dave Schmelzer will [...]

The beauty of Twitter
Here’s one of those great articles I wish I had written. From @jontangerine… (HT to @stealingsand)
I like Twitter because…
It reminds me is that human beings are still tribal. As an example, if you check your own address book, or think about your family and friends, they probably number no more than two hundred people. We [...]

re: Social networking and the church
Found some more info on Mars Hill’s social network, The City:
The site is being built around physical communities not as much as around online communities.
One of the design principles of The City, which has guided virtually every decision we’ve made, is that the physical is more important than the virtual. This subtle but significant difference [...]

re: Social networking and the church
Here’s some more Intranet/Social Networking info from across the pond:
Robin Farr, editor of the employee intranet for the provincial government of British Columbia, is humanizing the way it communicates with its employees.
She does this by continuing to transform the government’s intranet from the neglected, dull afterthought it was less than two years ago into a [...]

How do you build community?
Last week I posted some thoughts on building online community.
I didn’t get many posts here but it did spur some further discussion over on Flickr at the Church Marketing Lab.
Also last week my new blogging buddy Johnny Laird (thanks Thomas) posted some thoughts on the community group that meets at his house.
He discussed several ideas [...]
