Mighty Music Mashup

Found another great customisable internet radio service: Pandora. Check out My Profile.

To add an extra dimenshion there is a Pandora FM mashup that feeds tracks listened to on this site into your last.fm profile.

I'm happy to say that they don't restrict the buying links to iTunes (of which I am not a fan), but also links to amazon (call me old fashioned, but I like my music on CD or Vinyl).

Advent

Shout and be glad, O Daughter of Zion. For I am coming, and I will live among you, declares the Lord. Many nations will be joined with the Lord in that day and will become my people. I will live among you and you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you.

Taken from Zechariah 2:10-11 (New International Version)

Library Thing

Check out the Library Thing Website. It lets you catalogue all your books, and see recommendations for books you would like, or un-recommendations for books you won't like.

I'm just putting together my own catalogue on the site now.

Discipline

I few weeks ago, we were encouraged to get into reading our bibles more. This is a huge challenge to me, as my discipline for this is generally awful, and my bible reading can at times be sporadic. So, over the next couple of years, to try and keep a bit more discipline, I'm going to be joining a few people at church in following a bible reading plan which covers the whole bible in 1 or 2 years (I'm going for the two year option - a couple of chapters a day is about the right amount of reading for me I think).

The plan we're following is by McCheyne, and can be found here. To follow in 1 year you read all four columns, and to follow in 2 years you do the first two columns one year, and the 3rd and 4th columns in the 2nd year.

Anyway, I hope that this will help me be more disciplined, especially with encouragement from others. I'll probably put the odd post on how I'm getting on with it up here. If I don't, give me a nudge to make sure I've not given up.
