What's Up...What's New.

It’s been a couple of weeks since last I blogged and there are good reasons. Well, one good reason, I’ve been even more swamped than normal. Another is that the last week and a half or so my computer has been sick. Not sure what is up with it – for some reason I can’t sign in to some of my websites, still working on it and am doing this from another computer. So just a few notes today:
1. Do you know about igoogle.com? If you do the internet much you need to visit and see what all you can do one that one page! It is super cool. g-mail, which will forward all e-mail from any account, widgets (not sure what that means, but it allow for really neat little tidbits of info like weather, stock, Spanish word of the day, RSS feeds.
2. Do you know what an RSS feed is? I don’t really either J, but I like it. A while back I noticed the term and wasn’t really sure so I ignored it. Now I like it a lot! There are a number of WebPages and blogs that I visit and follow. One problem is I don’t know how to keep up with them. Most don’t send out an email like I do to let people know when they’ve updated, so I forget them. I forget about Adam and his family, about Clayton’s newest news cheerfully and skillfully delivered … I don’t really forget them, I just forget to visit. The RSS feed tells you whenever a page you follow has been updated. It is one of my favs for ’07!
3. Spring Meadows, thanks for Trent, has a blog. In addition to our excellent website (
www.smcoc.net) that has so much neat stuff this blog will be used to chronicle in one location our history. Trent (and I?) are doing it one month at a time. Add to, make suggestions, it can be edited. http://www.springmeadowschurch.blogspot.com
4. For you facebookies…there is also a facebook page. It is a place to post pictures.
5. The final one is that Trent and I are tossing about the idea of a weekly podcast. What all do you think it should consist of? We’ve got some good ideas but I’d like to hear from you…
Have a super week!!!!
