    For those intrigued by web 2.0 and “church 2.0″ stuff, I wrote about a report of a new study from the Pew foundation.  It begins here and goes on through the link at the end to the next post.

    A book on chuch blogging

    See here for the link.  I mention it because I think sometimes a pastor or a church governing board needs a concrete piece of evidence to see how something can help a church website….

    Cool video on web 2.0…

    I took a break last week, but now I have posted something new at the Connect Our People blog.  This also represents my first investment in istockphoto.com, an idea that occured to me while reading this.

    A new blog for certain topics…

    The Connect Our People blog is up and running. The first entry is more about paper than cyberspace. In any case, there will be no more blogs in this category, except perhaps to let you know I have written something new over there.

    Pontifical Council for Social Communications?

    Wow!
    I haven’t had a chance to look at this report yet, but I have to say it looks like the Vatican has its act together.
    The Church’s interest in the Internet is a particular expression of her longstanding interest in the media of social communication. Seeing the media as an outcome of the historical […]

    More Church/web 2.0 discussion

    Since I’ve been linking distinctively Christian social networking sites perhaps it would be good to show you a few discussions. The first I’ll mention is a blog entry from the interestingly-named site, “Church Marketing Sucks.” I really liked this entry because I thought I was the victim of confusion. I couldn’t figure […]

    Amid the herd

    Web 2.0 is growing rapidly in cyberspace. I knew that, but I hadn’t realized how much it had done so for Christians until I found Joe’s blog through the church technology review blog. Joe has kept an eye on things (I’d like to know how) and has updated his list since it was […]

    Watching passionate communities evolve.

    This entry by GTD wizard Merlin Mann sort of surprised me. I had never thought about Merlin as someone who thought much about church services.
    But Merlin doesn’t see it as that much of a stretch and I think he is right:
    As I’m sure Brian realized at some point, a lot of the advice in […]

    Virtual Church?

    Wow!
    I don’t know how I managed to do it, but I managed to miss the tenth birthday of the First International Church of the Web by just over a week. What a shame.
    I think this “church” represents probably most pastors’ worst fears about how the web is used in a religious way. Perhaps […]

    Are mobile phones anti-community?

    I recently found this entry on Lauren Winner’s blog complaining about the number of people using mobile phones on a college campus. The article, which she refers to as a “screed,” makes some great points, but I still think her starting illustration, the campus and the proliferation of mobile phones, actually goes in the […]

    Application Service Providers are perceived as valuable

    This story is interesting, at least to me. IBM recently paid a hefty amount of money ($187 million) for a relatively unknown company, Corio. Apparently, IBM sees a lot of potential profit in the services Corio offers and wants to make sure that they get in on it.
    Corio is an application service provider, […]
