I finally did it. I can’t think of one Apple product I own — except for the new iPod Classic I just bought yesterday on Amazon for $228 as part of their after-Thanksgiving-day sale (aka Black Friday in the retail industry — they’re finally in the black for the year!). Now, to wait the 1-2 […]

I guess if I had to play a hypothetical “favorite pastor” game (not that I would generally recommend […]

Barry Buchanan over at Church IT Help posted an entry yesterday that resonated strongly with my own experiences and frustrations. His gist? Staff members don’t read IT emails with important information that they very badly need to read. I’ve notice some of the same things he’s mentioned, and I haven’t found a solution. However, I […]
