Gospel of Change
Today I sat in on an apologetics session at the Queensland Theological College. The guest speaker was Bill Edgar from Westminster Theological Seminary. The key point picked up by my ears on the opening hour was that the Gospel has an inherent attribute of ‘change’. First let me say that I agree with the statement but I can’t leave it in that state without the addendum of definition. This wasn’t a failing of the address I sat under as it had a different discussion to address, being ‘the dynamics of cultural change’. However my mind was racing to work this...
Read MorePayPal has your best interest at heart. Not! Well maybe!?
This weekend I received an email from PayPal advising me they had found and stopped someone fraudulently using my PayPal account. This ranged from them buying goods on eBay to making a donation to an American literacy organisation. Hmmm crooks with a conscience! Now let me start by saying, "Thanks PayPal"! They did stop the naughty wee crooks and their system did identify a trait and acted on it immediately. Without this kind of attention, it is fare to say we could have had a bigger problem. So to a certain extent I was impressed that the protection was there. So why am I upset...
Read MoreWe are an iPhone friendly site!! – Really nice!!
Hey, I’m the first to agree I lurv (you read it correctly ‘love’) my 32GB iPod Touch and the idea of an iPhone is quickly setting in as well. I’ve found that since using my iPod touch I will spend more time keeping abreast of email or updating my Facebook status via this device than starting up my laptop or rushing to login on the family PC. It just feels easy for mail but now where do I stand when it comes to using Safari for browsing? Its kind of a bit of give and take. I know sites that are easy to browse to and others I think, ‘stuff it’ I’ll wait...
Read MorePandora can you feel my frustration!
It’s hard to explain but there is a pain deep in my soul that longs for Pandora in the colonies. ‘What are you going on about‘ I hear you cry. Well, for me and my antipodean friends here in the likes of Australia, New Zealand and many other ‘forgotten lands’ we are crying out to be set free. There seems to be a cry going out from many countries as to why agreements with global rights holders for music, video and the like can’t be deployed as fast as an iPhone’s app can be a 1,000,000 hit wonder on iTunes and available around the globe. I introduced my...
Read MoreSquarespace – It could be worth it
Like anyone I’m interested in ‘ease of use’ when it comes to the online blogging and publishing arena. Oh and give me the ability to make it ‘my space’ not a poorly constructed corporate template. The newly launched ‘SquareSpace‘ could answer many of the issues of simplicity in online publishing with this new release. Take a trip through the demo and be impressed at the realtime editing of styles, format and look that can be driven into your site. The demo indicates developers will be able to integrate CSS styles but is it the "be all and end...
