Friar Talk

I haven’t done much really in the way of updating the contents of AgustinongPinoy. After it became visible on the web again, all I’ve done is to post somethings about my forty-third birthday celebration. The most recent post is about last Saturday evening’s birthday celebration at the parish.. Bible Notes Simply Blogs and the Mystical Geek have been quite dynamic. I have been posting almost everyday on those blogs. Those of the Mystical Geek are recycled posts from an exclusive blogging network where I write on Spirituality and Web Technology. My WordPress tutorials at Blogsome is picking up a readership. You may also want to check it out.

Did you know how Tim Berners-Lee described the World Wide Web for the first time? Google has released its twenty year timeline of UseNet Discussion Groups, the first internet discussion forum. I saw it for the first time this afternoon and describe it here.. Be sure to follow the links in this post.
As the feast of Sto. Niño is drawing near, I began to look for articles about the Holy Child of Cebu and devotion to Him. I found an article, however, that told me something I didn’t know about the Cebuanos love for the Sto. Niño, a love shrouded in myth and legend. I blog about it here and here.

This could have been a post at AgustinongPinoy, but it is still down, so I posted it somewhere else. Go here. The post should also give you an idea of what we did special today for Fr. J.

While I was waiting for AgustinongPinoy to resurface (it has gone from bad to worse) I reposted a blog from Blogit and restated it into a discussion. It can be found here. The discussion is about my five years in the web, the benefits I’ve derived from it and the difficulties I’ve experienced. Post your comments and perhaps it could help me re-evaluate what I’m doing on the web.
