What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Creative morning coming up

    The intention today is to spend a creative morning looking at upcoming issues of inspires, the magazine of the Scottish Episcopal Church.

    I’m trying to apply a broad theme to the magazines at the moment and so far as I can tell this seems to be appreciated by the readers.

    Upcoming themes are Journey/Pilgrimage/Place, The Communion (Anglican and Otherwise) and something on buildings/sacred space. I’ve a notion that we’ve not really done much on liturgy and I’m going to be discussing some ideas with a couple of other people today.

    I rather like doing this work but being the Editor of a magazine and running a cathedral are not always terrible compatible occupations. Deadlines and the liturgical year don’t always play nicely together.

    I’m always so grateful to the writers of the articles. Some people have the gift of generous writing – fast, accurate and interesting.

    They are a delight.

    I’ve asked before in the magazine itself whether people want to suggest themes for issues and two of the themes listed above come from people’s suggestions.

    Anyone want to make a suggestion here? Feel free in the comments below.

    Your Google Reader RIP blog post gave readers (washed and unwashed) plenty of warning time to switch to another means of reading your blog. And now another goodbye to Google Reader! Thank goodness email still lives, as well as RSS feeds. It’s nice to have a choice.

    Bless you Kelvin – you have saved the day. I knew this ominous occurrence was coming and was completely flummoxed as to what to do about it. Thanks too for all the extra help in your blog.

    I have settled on Netvibes as my Google reader replacement (lack of clutter ec).

    The one thing I have not sorted is that in Google Reader I had a ifttt (www.ifttt.cm) recipe which transferred any post I starred to Evernote (www.evernote.com).

    I’ve been using NetNewsWire all these years. They are keeping up with the changes, although I don’t think they’ve got the synchronization (amongst several different devices) working yet. There are several ways of doing this; but a reason everyone liked Google Reader so much was that it was the best tool for synchronizing (amongst different devices) even when you used a reader other than Google’s.
