Just two or so weeks ago, I was in Granger IN, participating in the GCC Church IT Roundtable (recap available here).  If you’ve never been to a Church IT Roundtable event before, you need to understand that the elements of encouragement and community abound in the environment.  Not to mention the power of collaborative thought.  This year’s roundtable at GCC was no exception, and I think every single person involved was able to benefit from going.  I know I did.

Tomorrow I will be jumping in the NewPointe-mobile and heading down to the official Fall Church IT Roundtable at Seacoast Church.  I am JACKED about this!  Here are just a few reasons why…

• This will be the largest Roundtable I’ve been to so far (I didn’t get to go to the SCBC or OKC Roundtables)
• I love being able to connect with like-minded people, and the RT is a great atmosphere to do that in. (it’s not easy being the lone geek in your organization)
• The drive to SC is going to be a crackin’ good time.  I’m a huge fan of road trips.
• On Monday I’m doing to make a stop at NewSpring Church and meet up with THE Jared to scope out their multi-site/campus setup.
• My wife is coming with me!  She’s going to be hanging out with her counterparts at NSC and Seacoast while I geek out.
• I’m going to get to experience southern cooking, and that ALONE is worth the price of admission.  Bring on the BBQ and sweet tea!

We’ll be pulling out of Dover somewhere between 1-2pm tomorrow afternoon.  Looking forward to it!

From time to time, I’ll mention Twitter when I’m talking to someone in person.  Most of the time, after mentioning Twitter, I’ll have I feel obligated to explain what it is and how it works.

Since I’m not the most eloquent person around, I’m very pleased that someone has taken the time to put this video together.  It explains, briefly and completely, what Twitter is and why its useful.  Enjoy.
