Sunday Special QA No. 19

It’s that time again…! Sunday’s a good day to take it easy.

I’ve decided that on Sundays I’m not going to do any blogging except for a very simple post series called “The Sunday Special” where you get to ask me anything you’d like.

You can ask about me about web technology, WordPress, blogging, what I ate for breakfast… whatever.

I can’t promise that I’ll answer all of your questions, but feel free to answer each other’s questions as well.

I’ll try to answer all the questions throughout the coming week.

Simple enough, right? Go.

ChurchCrunch’s 1,000th Blog Post – The Big Thank YOU Giveaway!

It’s been 10 months and 8 days (or 311 days) since we first started and this blog post marks the 1,000th post on ChurchCrunch.com! We’ve managed to maintain a wickedly-high post volume count of about 3.216 blog posts a day.

Wow. Pretty insane.

And although myself (and about 30+ contributing authors) have been driving the content it’s only because of the community that’s been developed that all of this seems to be sustainable. Each blog post was simply a “brick” laid down that I hoped would create a pathway of connection and community.

Eventually, we might actually make something of it (or get “somewhere”).

So, a big Thank You to the community that’s been encouraging me forward as we seek to understand and explore how best to use web technology for the Kingdom.

JS-Kit’s ECHO Commenting System is So Much More

jskit-echo

JS-Kit’s ECHO commenting system definitely looks like it’s going to “change the conversation,” or at least change the way we engage with comments as we understand it today.

Essentially, the entire comment stream will be populated by not only direct comments but also the conversations that are swirling around the web related to that particular post. As TechCrunchIT states:

For example, say users are talking about this article on Twitter. All of those tweets (that have the URL to this story attached), will be pulled into the commenting area. Same with Facebook, and Google, and Yahoo, and FriendFeed, and Digg, among others. And all of this will be populated in real-time.

Very neat. Obviously there’s going to have to be some work in terms of “signal vs. noise” management, but I think it should be worked out just fine, and with multiple login opportunities (see below) it’s adoption will be stellar:

I’ve asked for my BETA invite… I’d suggest you do the same.
