Oh look, a local battle to fight All Age Church is attempting to reach the Balham area for Christ and an essential part of our appeal is Christ Church Kids. Many of those we aim to reach won’t know that yet but our task is get them in and give them a taste so that… Continue reading Local Battles

Supersize Your RSS
This article in Wired points out that the consumer release of Windows Vista will almost certainly see the use of RSS reach a tipping point. Save the date: RSS will go mainstream on Jan. 30, 2007. That’s the day Microsoft’s Windows Vista operating system hits retail shelves. Internet Explorer 7, the first version of Microsoft’s… Continue reading Supersize Your RSS
Telegraph Web Site
The Telegraph web site was relaunched recently and they are promoting this with an advertising campaign. I’ve seen many adverts on the escalators in tube stations. But these adverts have some very strange wording on them. They claim that the Telegraph site is “the UK’s most visited quality newspaper web site”. And there’s a logo… Continue reading Telegraph Web Site
Big Brother Racism
I haven’t been watching Celebrity Big Brother so all the information that I have on the current racism row has come from a number of media outlets (and via BlogLines). I have come to a few conclusions though. I don’t understand why people are surprised by this. Do people really think that people in the… Continue reading Big Brother Racism
Harriet Harman Blogging
Harriet Harman has started a blog. Of course, she’s also standing for election as deputy leader of the Labour party – so the timing is all very suspicious. I wonder how much she’ll be writing once the election is over. But, anyway, I’ve added her to Planet Westminster. Interestingly, Harman’s web site is also available… Continue reading Harriet Harman Blogging

Five Things
I’ve been tagged by Piers, so here are five things you might not know about me. When I was very young I was a member of my local Boys’ Brigade. As well as weekly BB meetings, this entailed going to church (and Sunday school) every week. I have no idea why I did this as,… Continue reading Five Things
Tricking the Customer
I really hate it when companies who have a good product spoil it by trying to trick the customer into spending more money than they really want to. Today’s example is LoveFilm. Last year I wrote an entry about how I was considering trying out one of these new DVD rental services. They all seemed… Continue reading Tricking the Customer
Wearing A Crucifix
Here we go again: A CATHOLIC schoolgirl was asked not to wear a crucifix on a chain because it breached health and safety rules, her father said today. Samantha Devine, 13, was told to remove the crucifix and chain to comply with school rules. She attends The Robert Napier School, a non-denominational mixed school, in… Continue reading Wearing A Crucifix
