This is a review of the Wibiya Toolbar, used here on Churchosphere. I think it’s worth using wherever you want to increase user engagement (everywhere). And also, not many people use it, so it’s kind of unique. Check out the video.

Wibiya Toolbar Review

If you use a mac, as I hope you do, you should know about the Grab tool. It’s a screencapturing tool that even supports selecting portions of your screen, which is great. Except…It saves it in .tiff (no one knows why!?)

The problem is, of course, that your screen grab is *probably* going to the internet, which largely doesn’t support .tiff. So your stuck opening up photoshop/gimp right? No more!

Instead,

1. open up Preview > File > Take Screenshot and pick your favorite method of screen capture: Screen, Window or Selection.
2. Take your screenshot and click Save.
3. When Save pops up, you magically have all kinds of formatting options, (click the picture).
4. Time Saved.

• Justhost.com is offering free web hosting for a year. Use the code TEMPLATEMONSTER when signing up and it should say 12 months free. This has worked for two of my friends, let me know if it works for you. (Marcus, this means you…no more excuses haha). I use them to host this site, and as far as I can tell, it really is free.
• Christianbook.com is offering the ESV Study Bible for 50% off the normal $50 price! I’ve held these things in my hands, and they’re beautiful. I just ordered a copy, so excited!
• P.S. today is free sandwich day at Chick-Fil-A. wear your team logo, free sandwich. do it.

Have you noticed that in the world of the internet, everyone is an expert. In fact, there are so many self-proclaimed “experts” that it’s hard to find anyone with much real experience. This leads to the difference between experience and observation. I’ve discovered that I am not an expert in much. My areas of expertise extend to 1. Myself and 2. Chick-Fil-A Drive Thru. In everything else, I am foremost an observer.
