wonder who's the man, or woman, in the world of twitter? This site lists the top 100 twitterers and links to their sites. It was interesting to me how many of the popular blogs were highly "vodcasts".
QUESTION:
Would you rather listen to someone's thoughts or read them?

There's been a lot of talk lately about how bad things are in the US, both financially and politically. It seems like no matter what happens on Wall Street or who ends up living in the big white house at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, the nation will still let up a collective sigh, not of relief, but of frustration. Andy Crouch offers a unique and insight viewpoint on why things getting harder, could be the best things for our country. You can follow the link to the article, but here are some of the highlights:
Well, our culture is pretty afflicted right now. Which is why I am more hopeful than I've been in a long time.
I am not hopeful because I think life is going to get easier in America. I am hopeful because I think it is going to get harder, and in a very good way. And I am hopeful because I think this means my children and grandchildren will live in a deeply and truly better world than I would have thought possible a few years ago.
Our markets and our system of government, for all their flaws, are an amazing renewable resource handed on to us by our forebears.
I believe the first step in culture making is not creating (let alone condemning, critiquing, or consuming) but cultivating: keeping what is already good in culture, good.
Our culture's addiction to ease is unsustainable.
And this is why I am hopeful in the face of both the greed and the fear of the present moment: After the Great Deleveraging is past, with any luck and by God's grace, a lot more of us will be more like them.
This was a blast. Making memories with the family.
