The OSIS Web:Parallel Bible study tool is pretty nifty. It’s web based, fast and quite useful. And it’s more usable than many of the desktop applications 🙂 Free isn’t bad either.

Spread Firefox
If you don’t already use FireFox as your browser, may I suggest you try it out? Version 1.o is here and it’s faster, cooler and more secure than Internet Explorer. What I find so neat about FireFox is that it’s free but better quality than most paid browsers (which I include Internet Explorer – Windows is not free). I know I push this browser periodically, but it is so excellent that I like for people to give it a chance, you won’t go back.

AudioBlogging: Dumb
This MP3 file has got to be one of the funniest serious things I’ve heard in a while. Way more funny than the RNC or this little video clip. Why is it funny? Because it exposes the silly nature of audioblogging on the web. I have often wondered why various technologies or trends come into play, audio and video blogging is one of them. You’ll have to listen to it to understand.

Get Dizzy Watching Them Spin
Since the Olympics are nearly over it’s time to prepare for the whirled politics scene. Or at least the presidential politics scene. Eric Meyer posted Antispinward, a blog entry about a site that debunks many of the spin stories put out by both parties! That site is called www.spinsanity.org. At the very least it is interesting reading.
Poems by earthmanone
A brother at church gave me the link to some poems he’s written and published online. Poems by earthmanone contains poems, primarily Christ centered, and I enjoyed them so I thought I’d share.
