Woohoo for Firefox tab hot keys

I'm excited to have learned the hot keys to navigate between open tabs in firefox.

On the mac...
ctrl+tab - toggles sequentially through open tabs
ctrl+shift+tab - toggle backwards through open tabs
cmd(apple key)+1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or etc - goes straight to tab 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 etc

cmd+t - opens new tab
cmd+w - closes tab

Wow

I was just part of something amazing. A friend named Carlos was in his basement my himself leading worship in front of his mac book pro. 170 friends from around the country/world joined in the worship via his blog and were able to participate through live sharing of the their worship thoughts through chat. So often, worship is a band leading, everyone signing, and a few people shouting out a thought or two. This was everyone shouting out their instantaneous worship, their prayers, their thoughts.

I had my kids sitting with me and they chatted in a couple of praise thoughts of their own.

Carlos' blog is www.ragamuffinsoul.com

Catching up with old friends

Via Facebook, I caught up this week with two friends I haven't seen in years. One of them I haven't seen in 19 years. It turns out he's a pastor in the delta of eastern Arkansas. What's even wilder is that he has recently picked up my pastor's book, "How to Build a Healthy Multi-Ethnic Church". He commented how the delta is a place that really needs that.

Just being at our church in Little Rock, it's easy to miss the multi-ethnic church movement that is beginning to spread.

Need a new blog address

I'd like to get back to blogging, but I need a new blog address.

allentexas.blogspot.com made sense when I was an "Allen" living in Texas. And, I actually lived in the city of Allen, Texas. But now I live in Little Rock, AR.

Once I get some creative juices flowing on that, I'll be back on here more.
