Experiments and Mobile

I am considering this post to be in one part an experiment. Blogger has released a new feature called scheduled posting where you can write a post and then schedule it to automatically post on a future date and time. I am starting this a bit before 10am and will just see how it rolls out. This is a feature that I've wanted for sometime, and it brings some value back into Blogger for me as a publishing platform. That being said, I still am looking at moving on to something a bit more mobile...

For the last week I have been doing an experiment on MMM where I am using Nokia's Mobile Web Server as a blogging and communications platform. For MMM, its a nice idea, but something that needs a bit more refinement. For me though, it could be something worthwhile to do considering all the other ways that I connect with people while connected/online.

Basically, I would be archiving all that I do here and going to use the MWS only. There would be a page here that lists the badge to the MWS as well as archives of the Blogger posts, and then the connect page (because it took so long to build and refine that, I am not getting rid of it). For me, it makes me very mobile once again; for you, well, depending on whom you are, there becomes a better way for my website to be a place of personal musings and such.

Unfortunately, this is not something that I can do right now. The mobile device that I have while good for this, lacks some hardware abilities that would make such a move easier. Considering also that I am a nut about connectivity, I would want to make sure that a few other things are settled. That being said, this is something under heavy consideration and I am most likely going that route in a non-experimental mode.

In talking to my friend till 2am last night, we got back on that subject of being the kind of church that is distinctive; I see what I have done with MMM over the last week, and what I will do here as an enabler into that. Whether that leads more people to Christ or not I don't know. But in terms of those things mobile and connecting, I am doing what I am designed to do, tripping all the way to some end that God has planned. I don't know His plan, only that I am in it and subject to it. That makes it fun to try stuff like this, and then respond to the world around me in a manner that speaks like the knowledge of Him that has been written on our hearts.

Seems like the scheduled pposting aspect works just fine.. Very cool; off to continue learning about how to live off of this mobile life.
