and that's not to stereotype age, it just happens that sometimes you are exposed to certain social media tools quicker in different age demographics…the issue came down more to were we all willing to change, innovate, compromise on some things, etc.

Welcome aboard, dear friend! Just so you know, I'm going to steal the term “glocal” and use it in the most awesome ways ever. I'll credit you, of course.

God bless the power of the Google Reader.

The internet is destroying the tyranny of distance we can feel here. Now everyone is glocal. I've got your blog on my google reader list and ideas are shared that wouldn't have been before. New relationships and influence come that have no respect for ecclesiastical or geographical borders. We're going back to Babel! I'm the minister of an Anglican church in Sydney, Australia.

I've worked for 3 churches, and all of them are bad at the Internet, and so are Christian Education professors at schools. Some of them try, but they are up against an overprotective group of people (especially in the United Methodist Church) who try to tell youth to not have MySpace pages or to visit chatrooms because you can be abducted or raped. <br><br>In the end, I told one person who said that making friends online was dangerous that I didn't know who she was and that she could be a serial killer (she was a middle aged Christian Educator) but I was able to have enough faith and trust that I could have a conversation with her without her disemboweling me, and that the same is true for people one meets on the Internet.
