What then do I write?

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

I’ve always written about that which was currently going on in my life. It’s easy to tap into that source and come up with plenty  to talk about, it got me through my first two years of blogging, but now… now I’m stuck. What if what’s going on in my life isn’t something that needs [...]

Life updates

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

Well, I haven’t been around much lately. This summer I took a nice size course load to try to get my college “career” jump started again. I don’t think I’ve ever gone into the details of my past failures here (on the blog) so a quick summary is probably in order. Back in my junior [...]

National Thank Your Commentors Day

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

That’s right, I hereby declare this day, June 17th, “National Thank Your Commenter Day.” You guys are basically the life force that keep me blogging, carrying on the conversation to a level that I cannot do alone, you guys make my blog worth reading. Often times we don’t think about the commenting section as the [...]

Adding my two cents into the “disappointed emergent” conversation.

Friday, June 5th, 2009

So, every few months we manage to find one post and it creates some massive waves around the emergent/ing blogosphere. We (at this point in time I speak for emergenT) seem to really like the posts that have to do with emergent dying. I wrote one of those myself (unfortunetely all the comments were lost [...]

farewell to a legend (g’bye Josh Brown)

Monday, April 27th, 2009

It appears that blogger/podcaster Josh Brown has all but entirely given up on Web 2.0. Just over a month ago (After enigmatically going from a habitual blogger to only posting pics of his [adorable] kid), Josh posted a note, aptly entitled, “Why I Don’t Blog Anymore.” That in and of itself is a bit of [...]

New Venture: Open Table Theology

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

There are a lot of thinkers out there, there  are a lot of tinkerers out there, there are a lot of voices that don’t always have a platform to speak from out there, and there is a lot to learn from all of those people. My hope is via “Open Table Theology” to bring some [...]

Saturday link roundup

Friday, April 10th, 2009

I give myself two weeks before I forget and stop doing this, but for now Saturdays will be a link roundup day for the previous week. Blake had a good post on trying to define violence, and a follow up post with a pretty good definition of violence. Josh has apparently discovered the wombats, a [...]

Why is google taking over the world?

Friday, April 10th, 2009

Ok, I talked a bit yesterday on google’s changing influence on my life, and after spending a day or so poking around google, I realized just how much they have to offer. Here are the five reasons I see that enables google’s continued success. Portability With the advent of mobile browsing, google has hopped on [...]

Commenting policy

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

I haven’t quite had a need to establish a commenting policy on the blog, I have a rather established (and thankfully active) group of commenters that all act with respect. Since the blog was created I’ve only deleted three comments, and only had to lock down one thread. A good record to be sure. The [...]

sorry

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

I feel the need to apologize here. It was my intention from the start to avoid using advertisers on the blog, but I gave in today. A bit of history: About a month and a half ago, I was on the verge of shutting down the blog. I didn’t quite feel like I was bringing [...]
