    This is really exciting for me … and as I write this post on CCP, I think back to this blog and how it started it all!

    Anyway, we just launched BackupBuddy, our easy, all-in-one backup, restore, and migration solution for WordPress.

    • ]]>     My good friend Douglas Baker, executive editor of the Baptist Messenger of Oklahoma, my home paper and one I love dearly, asked me to write an article for their Project 2010 (which is a great year-long series dealing with serious issues the Church is facing) about Social Media in the Church.

    My post is titled Leveraging Social Media for the Gospel.

    Take a look and let me know what you think.

    • ]]>     AppChurchI got an e-mail from the crew at AppChurch.com the other day about their new app for the iPhone.

    While WordPress has an iPhone plug-in for websites that use WP as a CMS platform, I think AppChurch would be an awesome tool if your church uses another CMS system.  Both Mars Hills and LifeChurch.tv have created and used this type of technology (I love both) with great success and I really feel it would be beneficial for you to check out for your church as well.  The AppChurch is a free download from the iTunes store though you do have to pay a monthly fee if you want your church logo, service times, map, events, and sermons to be included for your visitors to see … but at $7 per month for one website, I think this is a small investment if people visit your church because of it.
