You may have noticed at the bottom of every post on eMinistryNotes.com is a little text link that says “digg it”. And perhaps you’ve wondered about it or you clicked it and didn’t know what in the world was going on.
Digg.com is a social site that allows you to submit web pages to the […]

Yahoo! Answers came to my attention yesterday and immediately sprung ideas to mind for evangelism. To start I asked a question about how to insulate a wall in my house. Within 25 minutes I had 8 answers, and they were helpful!

my new startpage, originally uploaded by orangejack.

Another very interesting idea I had not really though of: build a Google homepage module. Blake explains how he’s seen a boost to his site after building one […]

I was emailing with a friend the other day about setting up a response center. One idea I came up with is the idea of volunteers who have Skype use the Skype buttons to show availability.
I would think, though I’ve never tried, that you could have, say, five volunteers who have Skype get the […]
