My Blog is My Online Mistress

Posted by John Saddington on Jan 29, 2010

Keeping things in perspective can be the most challenging thing for me because at times I can really get it all twisted.
You know, if I were to be completely honest, there have been times where my blogs (and blogging) have been pretty close to being categorized as my “online mistress.”
Sick.
And that’s just my blog, not [...]

Sunday Special QA No. 43

Posted by John Saddington on Jan 24, 2010

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 can ask about me about web technology, Wordpress, blogging, what I ate for breakfast… whatever.
I can’t [...]

ChurchCrunch Breaks 3k RSS Subscribers: Things App Giveaway! And… Netbooks…?

Posted by John Saddington on Jan 22, 2010

Yay.
ChurchCrunch busted through the 3,000 RSS Subscriber count yesterday and apparently has dropped down to the low 2,000’s to spite me.
Yay…?
In any case, it’s another easy reason to celebrate, and celebrate we must! So, we’re giving away a copy of Cultured Code’s Things App to one lucky winner!
I personally think this app is a beautiful [...]

Keeping Internet Fame in Perspective

Posted by John Saddington on Jan 20, 2010

We’ve all had that “moment.” You know what I’m talking about; where a more “famous” person on the internet drops you a retweet or re-blogs some of your content or makes note of your existence. A sudden rush of awesomesauce rolls through your mind and pink butterflies start appearing on your desktop and ideas of [...]

Is Your Ministry Scaling Your Caring? Thoughts on Expectation.

Posted by John Saddington on Jan 19, 2010

I’m loving this video above from Gary V. about ‘Consumer Expectations.’ In fact, I think we can pull a lot out of this for consideration in terms of ministry and our online engagements.
In addition, it’s interesting to consider how social media has impacted our relationships with our ministry and even leadership. I’ll be honest, sometimes [...]

Don’t Let that Blog Die!

Posted by John Saddington on Jan 16, 2010

Many people have created some personal blogging goals for 2010, which is great; I hope you accomplish all of them!
For many, though, a much simpler and perhaps reasonable goal is to make sure that your current blog doesn’t just die; keep it alive this year!
Now, that could mean a number of different things so I [...]
