Mobile Ministry Magazine

Greetings folks;
I am starting to settle into my new job, so you will have to pardon me a bit if the news comes later in the day for a while. I can appreciate many things to do and the challenge though of staying on top of spiritual and temporal matters at this time though.

Speaking of keeping on top of things, do any of you use a reading planner for your daily Bible reading? If so, what do you use? I am looking to get some software to compliment Bible+ but I also want to know what else is out there that I might be overlooking. Let MMM know what you use and we will feature your choice of reading software in a later post.

Another thing that I am noticing about my day is just how people use their mobile devices to keep people out of their world. Not always a bad thing to have personal space, but it seems that for many people the idea of personal space has led to a lot of people not really wanting to "get out and touch someone." I personally am always thinking about how to use my mobile device as a means of starting conversations (when approrpiate) rather than just making a bubble so that others can look from the window of their own bubbles.

One really good website, Palm Addict, has recently had a refresh to their design. It's very slick, check it out and see what other folks who use mobile devices do with their devices.

One post today from Palm Addict that caught my eye was about a backup solution called BackupBuddy .NET Professional. It basically backs up your mobile device to a server over the air. In this day and age where people can and do lose mobile devices and have a lot of information that is very hard to place onto a new device, having a backup on the go like BackupBuddy .NET is a pretty timely solution.

What was your mobile act of worship today? Let MMM know and the most notable one will get an eBible invite.
