UPDATE: I’ve updated the links to Paypal to help track the money coming in easier.
This morning, I sent out a cry for help via Twitter and Facebook ::
Close friend found out home will be foreclosed on Nov 1. Wonder if 450 peeps would donate $10 to cover their deficit…

You know, I’m still amazed that folks find my blog, read it and subscribe to it.
I’m also amazed that folks find what I share on Twitter worth while. But for some reason, I just crossed the 600 mark with my Twitter followers and I just want to say thanks!
For whatever reason you’ve decided I’m worth some of your time. Thanks.
I know I don’t follow everyone (I’m currently following about 400 folks) but I appreciate the time you’ve taken to follow me and share life with me. So HUGE PROPS to all of you!
UPDATE: @walter tells me that Twitter Mosaic only shows 400 or so people, so I’ve changed out the mosaic to my Twitter Friends (those I follow and they follow me back) — since I’m only following 400 or so folks, hopefully no one will get left out.
Just look at all these beautiful faces!

Tomorrow I’ll be sharing another video from #thenines — from author Sky Jethani.
Pure greatness! Be sure and look for it and watch it. It’s worth all nine minutes.

Someone has the audacity to think they can read through the entire Bible in 90 days! 90!
I have trouble reading through it in a year. (I even tried again this year and didn’t make it past January.)

I’ve been pondering an idea as of late and I’d love your input.
I LOVE Twitter — as if its not evident enough. I may love it a little too much. I love the connections, I love the conversations, and I love sharing ideas that spark other ideas, conversations and discussion.
And as those of you who follow my Twitter feed know, I share a lot of quotes from books, conferences, videos and the like. Some people seem to enjoy them, others get turned off by them — especially on weekends when I’m taking part in great conferences like The Idea Camp.

Getting on a little bit of a technology bent lately…
There are tons of plugins you can get for your website or blog that allow your readers to share your posts on a number of social network sites. But my experience has been that often those plugins can cause havoc on your servers for one reason or another – or bog your site down in general.
But there are alternatives to using plugins — and these will work for WordPress site, or anywhere on any site that utilizes PHP.
