50 pic friday

Lynse Leanne — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 14:56:58 +0000

So my friend (@joshuawite had this idea/challenge to use the tools in our hand to take pics instead of waiting til you have the nice camera. Challenge yourself to do it as a discipline.

So I decided that I would participate. You can keep up with some of my pics by following me on Twitter here or take a look at the album as it is created on my posterous page

If you want to participate take 50 pics throught out the day and if you tweet use the #50pic hash tag and share some pics throughout the day and then share your whole album at the end of the day.

It’s gunna be a blast.

you in?

(picture thanks to eHow)

The other day i was driving to meet a friend for coffee. i was in an anti social mode and typically when i am in that mood i love to listen to NPR…i know, i know…super liberal and some of you probably think i am a sinner for listening to liberal radio, but during the day they have very interesting content.

Well, this day they were talking about some Prep Schools removing all of their paper books and replacing them with e-readers.

I had mixed thoughts about this. The nostalgic feelings that well up in me when i see a book that i read and held and cried in and wrote in the margin…i cant imagine not having that. But its pretty cool.

Then today YouVersion had a webinar to explain some of the new stuff that is coming out (that is pretty cool) and Bobby Greunwald was talking about being at a conference where people were asked to hold up their Bibles and most people held up their cell phones….

Once again…i was thinking about what it would be like to not have a paper Bible in my hands. My Bible is all written in and marked up with significant dates and lessons in my life….and i cant imagine not having that….But YouVersion and the Bible in my pocket on my phone is pretty cool…convenient and just and awesome tool.

So this week i have spent a lot of my time thinking about what it would be like with no books. that you buy a kindle or another e-reader and buy an e-book….you cant put them on a book shelf….you cant write in the margins…you cant pass it on to a friend or re-sell it.

But it would be easier, better on the earth (and yes, sometimes i am “green”), better financially…and would be very convenient…and it would work. It was like the transition from CD’s to MP3’s….or scrolls to books….

As i roll this around in my head i would love your perspective or your opinion….Do you use a lot of e-books or do you still buy paper books? Do you think going totally e-readers and such is a good idea? Do you like it? Will you ever give in?
