I would find this so distracting and I'm not sure how edifying it would be to read what other people are saying while I'm trying to listen to the sermon. Can't we just sit and listen for a change and not have to comment on everything?

Speaking of Twitter, I now have an account on Twitter. Here's my...um...handle?...whatever: MicheleMcGinty. I haven't done much with it yet but I plan to (mostly I've been posting links to interesting things I've found on the Internet and occasionally I'll remember to post what I'm doing). I was surprised when I started it that I had a follower right away and now I have two. I'm really popular, huh? :-)

I visited Mars Hill Church (Seattle) and folks had their laptops out before the service - they put them away once the service started, but even that was distracting. Now, text messages are invited during the service for the Q&A afterward. I think I'd find that very distracting.

I read your, what is it, conversion story, Chesterton. Long, but very touching. God bless.
