Short posts or no posts over most of the coming fortnight me thinks - possibly just links to more interesting stuff. Today 2 articles have caught my attention which talk about the positive potential of social media and other digital technologies.
The first is an academic post on a Sociology blog which I've discovered this morning thanks to a twitter re-tweet. The post in question is part of a series on Digital Sociology by Deborah Lupton.
The other is a Big Bible post talking about the way social media can be a force for Christian Unity. Think those of us who have been hanging around sites such as this have been aware of it for some time, but still good to be reminded of what we take for granted.
If this discussion around the use of social media and particularly the area of the place of social media in theology / faith is something you are interested in then I have a third link for you.....The Christian New Media Conference which happens each autumn, (this year 20th October), and includes at least one speaker most of you will be familiar with.
