Tracking blogs and newsfeeds

Following the recent surge in bloggers, you may be wondering what the best way of keeping track of them all is.  Well one suggestion is bloglines, which is a browser-based RSS feedtracker.  Basically it can keep track of news sites or blogs that you specify it to keep track of.  You login to it through your browser wherever you are, and it will display an outline of updates made to the blogs or news sites you specify it to track.  You can then click on the links and read the associated pages.
It supports feeds from bloger, which is handy since its what we all use for our blogs, and also tracks feeds from news sites.  Some news sites you might want to try out are the BBC, The Guardian, Belfast Telegraph, Google News, and there are hundreds more.
Give it a try and see how you find it, I find it’s real handy for me, especially in a short lunch hour, saves trawling through lots of web pages and keeps you informed and up to date

And then there were 6........

This blogging craze is really snowballing now, get in quick or your missing out!! Ally G and Callum are the latest recruits to the blogging scene, good job guys.
Lets hope we can all keep up the momentum and contiue to ride the crest of the wave that reach-out gave us all. I really believe God used ReachOut to change all our lives, bringing us closer to him, and I pray that he will use these blogs to enable us to share together our spiritual journeys, encouraging one another along the way. Anyways i'm on my lunchbreak so better shoot, hopefully record a few thoughts later if I get the chance.

Shane Lynch @ Bangor Elim

Was at Bangor Elim last night hearing Shane Lynch (formerly Boyzone) sharing his testimony. Really interesting and refreshing to hear him share in such an open and honest manner how the celebrity lifestyle wasn’t all it cracked up to, and left him ultimately in a state of depression having tried everything to find that high, being saved ultimately from the world of the occult. He didn’t go into a lot of detail of his experiences, but his conversion ultimately came about as the result of a Christian friend who stood firmly to his beliefs and “was Jesus” to him. He explained how the power of Almighty God that was now available to him was greater than any of the evil powers at work in this world, and how the joy he now experienced in Christ was greater than anything he had experienced. He is now living life to the full, having experienced the greatest love of all, and the transformation in his life is evident for all to see.
He has recently released an album, and is now touring venues throughout the UK sharing his newfound faith.
Local press gave him a good write-up as well which is nice to see
