P2P

Monday Mentions

• I know I said it before, but I highly recommend Crazy Love by Francis Chan.  My relationship with this book has a story on its own.  I plan to tell it soon.

• And now that I’ve mentioned Francis Chan,  he’ll be speaking at Verge Conference in Austin, Texas in February .  And oh, did you know that’s where Friday Night Lights is filmed?  I feel a road trip brewing.

• Allison Iraheta debuted her single today.  I think it’s so perfect for her.  Unfortunately I don’t like Kris Allen’s enough to buy it   It’s just too much of the same thing.  Sorry, Kris!

• I watched the only existing video of Anne Frank several times.  I just love seeing the old film footage knowing that was actual life, not a movie.  I would love to see more of that.

• I loved this post and the idea of a family tree.

• I fully intend to try this crockpot lasagna, this hummus recipe and this granola bar recipe.

• I really love this idea of making your master bedroom more like a B&B.

• I’ve been using some new software.  First, Jing is great for screencaps. Audio Hijack has been awesome for recording Skype conversations on my Mac among other input sources, Switch has been a great audio file converter (they have some other great software too).  I also hear Audacity is great for both Mac and Windows as an alternate but I haven’t tried it yet.

   

• I’m very much enjoying the Scrabble app on my iPhone to pass time instead of Twitter.

   

• And lastly, lets end with some Dilbert gold.  I cracked up laughing when reading it at my ILs yesterday, Heather called me yesterday just to see if I’d seen it and now I’m seeing Mashable has highlighted it.
