This is a great article on how to take your low-traffic site to a whole notha level. What trips me out most about his site is that if you check out the number of readers (according to feedburner) on his site its 6 billion (thats right, you heard me). Isn't that like the number of people on planet earth? ;=)
Loved this post about book titles. very creative. very funny!
A very thought-provoking, heartfelt-yet-controversial post from this guy (who is actually posting final messages to his blog this week).
A friendly holiday shopping guide from Seth Godin (via Zak) and a shopping guide for geeks from Kevin Rose. Congrats to Dabo Swinney Clemson's new head coach! I heard he attends this guy's church. I literally don't enjoy my day as much when this guy doesn't post (its like my cup o java first thing in the morning). It is my favorite blog to read... and not just because he is my friend. Can't wait for the next post...
My good friend Josh is now doing movie reviews for YouthMinistry.com. He just reviewed Twilight, a movie that I don't mind mentioning that I enjoyed.
I would have had more links for you but most blogs were very inactive this week... What did I miss?

Its hard to believe that we are literally a week away from determining who our future president will be. After all the debates, ups and downs and campaigning -- the day will soon come. Tonight we are having a special prayer time at our church for the election and for our country. Barack Obama is also in town speaking. Perhaps I can get him to stop by... :-)

Carlos Whitaker told us about a new (rock-bandish) musical instrument they are introducing @ Buckhead, which will offer me a huge learning curve.
Doug Fields began twittering. There is also a huge challenge to get over 1,000 people following Doug. I'm issuing a challenge to help me reach 10. Twit me here.
Josh Griffin got to attend Idol Gives Back courtesy of Jason Castro. I was a little jealous, to be honest. You were too.
Craig and Bobby let us know that the One Prayer series site is up and running.
Ah yes...Jason Curlee announced my victory in the Madness tourney. I don't want to brag too much -- but, hey, thats all I win for this. Give me some props.
I let you in on a little secret to save you gas money.
Ben Arment officially lost the cool points with me today. He turned his comments off (even though I totally understand his reasoning). Puh-leeze Ben, reconsider. Leaders who allow comments, in my opinion, take their blogs to a whole notha level. I'll reward you with some gold stars if ya change ur mind Ben.
I think Carlos pointed me to this guy's blog. I love it! He is hilarious.
Adobe announced a new Photoshop online editing tool in public beta.

Today was such an interesting day... here are a few highlights:
I spoke at a school in Norfolk, VA.
Met with two leaders, Hank and Tim, to discuss the Emergent Church and solve all the church's problems.
Caught up with my good friend Dave Daniels via phone.
Received the manuscript of Tim Steven's book to preview and immediately started reading (yep, it's good stuff!)
Emailed three different bloggers (Ben, Adam, Shane) to discuss ministry in some form and\or chit-chat.
Had an incredible Wednesday service where the message took on a form that I hadn't planned (love when that happens!)
Went to one of my favorite places for dinner with friends.
Read a hilarious (yet intriguing) post by Tim Sanders. (You'll shower more after reading this.)
... and a scary but funny, yet weird post by Gary Lamb. (I couldn't believe the 'pulpit has a loaded one all ready for post-911 use' comment.)
