Has anyone else notice the barcodes?

Y'know, the 2 dimensional barcodes that are apprearing all over web pages and on posters & documents as well as the ordinary 1D type.

I've just downloaded an app for the HTC called (surprise) barcode scanner. It uses the camera and when the phone is aimed at the barcode it will interpret the code into either the appropriate words & numbers, or show you the link to you can follow with the phone's browser. This is not dumb.

Why post emergent?

Why not?

Some years ago I wrote about things relating to church I thought were important then and probably still do to an extent. So many of us want to make sure stuff is right, trying to differentiate ourselves, yet also often miss the more important stuff, the bigger picture.

I watch various people doing church in different ways and wonder how much God is concerned about our 'important' bits of theology or stances we take. The church stream I was once so pleased to be part of is starting to look like every other church to me, so maybe it's time I had a little humility instead of pride at being different.
