You would think with all the World traveling with which I’ve been blessed that I wouldn’t blunder about like such a stupid Yank! Fat chance. Seems that by trusting a Google English to Arabic translation of “blogJordan” gave me all the right letters, in all the wrong order! That’ll teach me to field un-vetted materials – hopefully you as well; without the following entertaining embarrassment:

Blogging your studies and sermon using Google Docs
This scenario sound familiar: your pastor nicely insists you publish his sermons online, but sends you his work in MS Word files that were converted via an old version of WordPerfect for Windows. Yeah, talk about cruft! Fortunately, I think Google may have an affordable and easy answer for all parties involved in this processing paradigm; it’s called Docs & Spreadsheets.
Why your cool church web site needs (the new) Google Analytics
Back in November of 2005, Google release Analytics, a high popular and free service to help you measure the effectiveness of your church web site. Yesterday, at the Emetrics Summit in San Francisco, Brett Crosby and Jeff Veen announced a re-factored version of Google Analytics that is more accessible and easier to use; begging the question – why haven’t you plugged this service into your church or charity’s web presence?
CPC Website Ministry FAQ – by means of a plank in my eye
Ever print out or save something for your own personal and private use, only to find out later that everyone can see it as well? That happened to me recently, in fact last night. So the first order or business is a public apology to Jeff Wilkinson and the good folks at Central Presbyterian Church [...]
What we’ve got here is failure to communicate
With apologies to the Captain of Road Prison 36 (Strother Martin) in the movie ‘Cool Hand Luke‘ (1967):

Yesterday I was asked why I hadn’t attended any youth leadership meetings for the [...]
Comments and Clarifications 1 of … many to come
I love the HYCW regulars … even those of you who lurk and are reluctant to leave a comment for fear of me returning the favor with a “thorough usability analysis” of your church’s website. First, let me reassure you, unless you are a slathering troll who abuses comments with ad hominem attacks on [...]
Glenn Reynolds on Working with the System
Last week, I reminded you that those who fail to plan inadvertently plan to fail. A thought corroborated by that towering genius of the blogosphere, Glenn Harlan Reynolds, a.k.a. the Instapundit. In this week’s TechCentral column, he writes:
“… [press] coverage or not, these sorts of things happen all the time. The complex systems that we [...]
Using PHP to aid in accessibility issues
In case you didn’t notice, the new RBC site employs tableless design. One of the original objectives of slugging it out this way was to make it more accessible to text-only browsers such as Lynx, while degrading with relative sanity to fossilized dino-browsers such as Netscape 4.78. Of the later, good success, though there is [...]
