One effective way to correct unhealthy social-media habits is to fast for a few weeks and then come back with strict limits on use — for example, as in the University of Pennsylvania study, a few minutes per day on any individual platform. That puts social media where it rightfully belongs: under each user’s control, and as a complement to real life.

Ever since the idea of writing was conceived, humans have recorded historical events, the occurrences in our daily lives and even our deepest thoughts and feelings in diaries or journals. They reveal what our ancestors cared and thought about and handed down wisdom from one generation to the next. Social media has quickly moved into the space once occupied by personal diaries, although how we use it isn’t quite the same anymore. Two-way conversation A diary entry is usually a thoughtful process.

Most businesses do want their content to go viral.

How to know whether to leave or stay in your ministry context.

“You’re called in until you’re called out.” I’ll never forget the words my mentor spoke over me when I found myself at a crossroads, wondering if I should stay or go in ministry.

My calling in had been clear: after four years of teaching high school English, I knew God was calling me out of the traditional classroom and into full-time outreach ministry. Sitting in the back of an auditorium one night, I felt the speaker’s words directed solely toward me. If you can’t imagine doing anything else with your life, maybe this is God’s way of directing you into full-time work ministry.

Two and a half years later, I stood at another crossroads: this time, I wondered whether I should return to the classroom, accept a ministry position close to home, or pursue another ministry position hundreds of miles away from home. Soon enough, I heard the words, clear as day: You’re free, my dear. You’re free! Free to follow my heart, I pursued the position eight hundred miles away from home and didn’t look back for another six years—until it really was time for me to go.

By that point, I clearly felt called out. Even though saying goodbye felt like a wrench to the heart, my time was over. Although the pain of leaving sometimes overwhelmed the joy of staying, a single choice to go remained. This time, God didn’t whisper words of clarity to me as much as God sat in silence beside me.

I’d been called out, just as I’d been called in.

Perhaps like me, you find yourself at a similar crossroads in ministry, wondering whether you should stay or go in your particular ministry context. You love the church, and you don’t have to think too far back to remember that ...

When I've decided to define 3 courses and levels, I had to include the Mobile Web Development one.
When I tell developers or random folks about such course, they ask me:
"why? come on, I know Web, how different could that be? what's the point?"

Yet Most Websites Still Fail

For instance, I've tried to book a flight yesterday from my Android 5 daily phone which is not even in developer mode and I use the default Chrome browser (I know, shocking, but you gotta test what real world users will see!).
You can see I couldn't do it via this video:

Not That Site Only!

I'm pretty sure they will fix this problem at speed light, and while same operation worked on an iOS based device, it's shocking even most popular or famous websites can fail that bad at very most basic tasks like scrolling!

Few developers still believe Mobile Web is about bringing in some Mobile library and that's it. The amount of different things happening there, different surfing paradigms, and different, really, everything, is the most under-estimated problem we have these days.

And the best part everyone is missing is that you don't need to add libraries on Mobile Web, most likely you need to drop them!

Do You Trust The App?

Every business is apparently laughing at HTML5 and Mobile, offering an App for something they cannot even make it work on a browser.
Apps, are privileged pieces of software so I ask you one thing: why do you trust apps when the easier to develop Web counterpart doesn't even work?

As Summary

You don't have to come to my courses if you think you don't need it, but if you don't test on mobile, you can also stop right now offering poor alternatives nobody cares 'cause nothing works there anyway.
But please, stop saying that HTML5 or the Mobile Web platform is the problem ... it's simply NOT!
