Ramblings of a Tech Guy

Addicted to Something...

I am so addicted to this: The Something Store.

I love it! You should try it!
Quote from the website: "SomethingStore is a fun new website that operates simply: We will send you something, an item selected randomly among many things from our inventory, for $10 (free shipping in the US) and you will find out what your something is when you receive it. What will yours be?"

You have got to try this, yes it is a gamble, but it is an awesome idea and really fun. It's like Christmas year round!

Twitter is down! Again!

A few links ...

Just wanted to drop a few links your way.

1. My good friend Jason pours his heart out about a recent loss of a friend and church member; Poured Out. Jason I am praying for you my friend and for your church and this family. Jason does bring to light a great point at the end of the post, in what ways can I waste more of my life on others? Read it!

2. One of the churches that I love what they are doing and how they are constantly bringing new things to the table is Lifechurch.tv. Well their pastor Craig recently had a great post about Isolation. Check it out here!

Hope you all are blessed, I know I am!

Financial Campaign, Creative Animation, and Tech

The Financial Campaign our church has started is going great! We have had lots of meetings that have been really well attended. We start our small group meetings tomorrow. We have two a night on Tuesday and Thursday nights for the next two weeks. We have also had great media coverage from our local tv station. Three people from the cast and crew go to our church, so as soon as they hear something from the stage, it makes the news!
Creative Animation has completed our 3D Virtual Tour and it went great. The people of our church really responded well and loved the video. It got lots of compliments. I hope to have it on the website by the end of the week. I will let you know as soon as it is up.
Blake ran the show yesterday as I was out sick with kidney stones. He did a great job, I am so thankful he is here and able to step into my job when I am out! Thanks Blake!
I have received all our new switches and am waiting on our newFiber transceivers. I also order new racks for them. Three buildings will get new connections from our server via fiber and new switches.

New Camera

I am purchasing a new Digital Camera today! Blake is not going to stand a chance in a photography war after today!

Severe Weather Alert

I just had a Severe Weather Alert pop up on my screen! How funny is that, it is sleeting and we are freaking out about it!

Obedient 08

Daryl McMullen's Think Barista
