What do you think?

Last night in an interview with Charlie Rose, Catherine Drew Gilpin Faust, President of Harvard, said that today there's a lot of information available to us but that's not the same as knowledge or wisdom. Juxtaposed to my recent experience at the Social Media conference, I find that worth thinking about. What do you think? Are we losing out with all the sound bites and minutia that's out there on social networks such as Twitter and Facebook?

The Future is Now

I've just returned from a Ministry2.0 conference on Social Media. Wow! The organizers (and they were brilliantly organized I must say) packed a lot into two days. My head is swimming with ideas and know-hows and go-tos. Hopefully they'll all still be there next week. One thing that Deacon Geri and I want to do is make this blog successful, which for us means getting all y'all in on the conversation. So first things first: if I've coded it correctly :>), you can now receive new postings via email, by clicking Subscribe to Musings on the Bluff by Email or just click on the link on the sidebar to add "Musings" to your homepage.
