Been playing with LibraryThing.

Finally thought of a use for it. I have these books just sitting there. If anyone would like to borrow one. Please let me know. You can search my library here. I'll try to add to it fairly regularly.

I just put up a vidoe about Kiva, an organization that makes small loans to people in third world countries in order to help them pull themselves out of poverty. It's one of the places where our kids put their savings. Please check it out. If you're interested, here's the Kiva website: http://www.kiva.org/

Ning has updated their software so that now new comments will appear at the top of discussions. I had received some comments regarding the difficulty of keeping up with the most recent prayer requests. Well, now they will be at the top of the list, so you can easily go back to using that feature . . . as well as the rest of the site. :) Have a merry Christmas and great 2009.

I added 2 videos to my page. It's the same song, Handlebars by Flobots (The Flobots?), but two different videos. I heard this song this weekend and am loving it. Also am grooving on the Flobots and what I am learning about them. One thing they are about is connecting with culture, getting their hands dirty and trying to make the world a better place. Yeah, they appeal to my radical-hippie side. And while this style of music may not work for everyone, I think it's funky.
