For true geeks only
In reference to the original reason why this blog was started, I thought I would share a truly geeky secret...well geeky for me though probably not so much for the many random techno wizards out there.
For those that use mp3 is any form or the other, a great way to travel, instead of grooving to the rhythm, is to download sermons from various legal web sites and listen to while on the bus/car/mrt/bicycle/taxis/etc.
One of my personal favourites is the All Souls church audio sermons page where they've archived all they're stuff for the past decade or so. Of course, one has to be just as discerning when deciding which sermon to download and I recommend anything by Rico Tice or Paul Williams. Some people seem to swear by this chap call John Stott but I think he's a far better author than preacher. However, one man's meat...
The All Souls repository has a searchable database by preacher, date, book and series and it's pretty user-friendly. The one solitary catch is that you have to register in order to access the service but it's free and pretty simple (if my friend, a self-confessed "tech moron" can do it, none of you should struggle). Actually, I bluff you; another caveat is that you should have broadband connection as the files are about 5-10 MB in size.
Another site worth visiting is the *cough, cough* ARPC resource page. Come to think of it, shouldn't you have already attended service?...oh yah, but maybe you're overseas and miss Ronnie's voice =)
The beauty of this is that it's all F.O.C. and being the true Singaporeans that we are, surely we cannot resist the urge. I believe that it's also not an infringement of any IPOS's laws, though given the recent debacle with CD ripping, I wouldn't put it beyond them to start clamping down on this.
Any other suggestions?
