    See the Morning by Chris Tomlin
    One thing I really enjoyed about his previous Arriving album was that it was worshipful, and captured such a great atmosphere of praise. This album builds on that and sets a new bar for great worship, both musically and lyrically. The album opens with the question, “How can I [...]

  • Praying Fearlessly Sep 24 2006, 3 Comments

    In study this past Friday, we read through a passage in Nehemiah and discussed how Nehemiah prayed to God. It was great because it reminded me of how we should be intentional when we pray to God, and not just pray for things we happen to remember. It’s interesting that in his prayer, Nehemiah was [...]

  • Ubuntu Linux Sep 20 2006, 5 Comments

    So a couple weeks ago I decided to do a little system administration and configure a spare computer with a desktop Linux distribution. Yeah, it was a great way to spend a Sat afternoon I went with the Ubuntu because it’s been getting some good reviews lately, and also because my coworker Jake [...]

  • Free Music Downloads Sep 19 2006, 2 Comments

    Thought I’d give a plug to my music podcast, which recently got a couple tweaks here and there. Actually, it’s not much of a podcast (you don’t have to listen to my voice or anything crazy like that), it’s really more me searching the Internets for free (and legit) full length MP3 downloads and [...]

  • Ooo… Shiney New Apples Sep 12 2006, 3 Comments

    Looks like I wasn’t too far off when I tried to predict what new wonderful gadgets Apple would have us buy this Christmas. The most interesting bit was when they previewed their set-top box, code-named iTV. This seems to be a step down from a full fledged computer, but also a step up from [...]

  • Where Were You? Sep 11 2006, 2 Comments

    Who would’ve guessed that I would be here now in the United States, and in particular, Washington DC of all places. But on this day 5 years ago, I was in Vancouver, sleeping in parent’s basement. That morning, my mom woke me up and told me to turn on the TV. I felt confused about [...]

  • Showtime for Apple and Amazon Sep 09 2006, No Comments

    Looks like online movies are starting to heat up, Amazon just unvield their new movie download service, UnBox. At first glance, it doesn’t seem to be that compelling, since there seems to be some pretty heavy restrictions on what you can do with the movies you download. First of all, it’s just plain inconvenient. You [...]

  • Who Reads This Anyways? Sep 05 2006, 2 Comments

    If you know me in real life meat space, you’ll find that I’m probably not the most engaging person to talk to. Or at the very least, I need a little ‘warming up’ in order to get going. I guess this blog serves as a way for me to share some of things I find [...]
