MY LITTLE CORNER OF THE INTERNET

hello world

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. You won't find the next great web technology, mind blowing insights on the world, or reviews of the latest Gadgets weeks before (or after) their release.

What you will find are the general musings of a technocrat, serving in missions, living in the LA area. Updates on my ministry, tips for using technology, and the occasional update from a personal point of view.

I send out a newsletter about every month that tells a bit more about what I am up to in my ministry and life in general. Sign up for that by clicking on the monkey. :) Subscribe mailing list

This weeks top priority is getting the WCIU Properties site updated to better serve the conference services folks (note: still in development, no real content there yet). The campus here has a number of rooms that can be used to host conferences, meetings, events, etc. There are also...

Frontier Media Makes Its Return

July 14, 2010

After packing the back of her Santa Fe with all the camping gear we could need (and some we didn’t) we began the drive north to King’s...

My thoughts (and experience) with the iPhone 4

July 12, 2010

I’ve seen two revisions of the iPhone come out before I finally upgraded my original iPhone. In the last 3 years they have added 3G, GPS, more memory, faster speed, and other enhancements. These were good, but not good enough. The $15 a month extra for the same service was also a big factor....

Why the iPhone 4 won’t be my next cell phone

June 11, 2010

My Title

For quite some time I held out on getting a cell phone. I think it was 2003 before I finally took the plunge. At that time I really didn’t care to have a phone that would allow people to reach me anywhere I was. I still don’t care about being ‘reachable’ all the time (well, maybe somewhat now...

My Thoughts on the iPad

January 31, 2010

I can never have a computer fast enough, capable enough or innovative enough.  There will always be features I want that are not there.  I’ll have to wait for something.  Editing HD video just does not produce immediate results.  The iPad would roll over and die if I tried to use it for some...
