      Thanks Blake – glad to hear you enjoyed it!
      Next episode will probably be about blogs, and hopefully smaller in file size, so that dialup users can access it.

      Dave.

      Cool Video. At first erverything I saw…I knew. But then when you got into some information about blogs, I learned quite a bit. Thanks.

      Thank you so much for taking time putting the video together. It was very helpful and informative. I’m looking forward to researching the sites you showed. And I’m definitely looking forward to your next video.

      Dave,
      Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!! I am one of the computer challenged
      people that has been asking “what in the world is a blog?” The youth at my church tried explaining it but until I read yours, I couldn’t figure out why anyone wanted to read someones journal. Needless to say, I thought the video was very helpful. Puting Quotes around a subject to narrow the listings was new to me. I look forward to visiting your blog on a regular basis. I vote for more videos – maybe it will help me not be so computer challenged.
      Thanks Mary Lynn – Texas

      Thanks for the video! Very informative. I really want to learn how you combine all the blogs you read into one place (you mentioned it would be on the next video.) That would save me a lot of time! Looking forward to the next video.

      Dave,
      Great Video! I look forward to more. Thanks for sharing the info in such a cool way. I like techno info, I just don’t know where to look for it most of the time. Anything from video production to how you incorporate technology into your kids services would be great.

      Dave,

      Thought episode 1 was great. I am eager to hear more from you and if you keep this kind of quality up, you will make the top 10 sooner than you think. Loved your words about Kidology, I too am part of Kidology as a cp team member.

      Keep up the good work.

      Hi David,

      I enjoyed your teaching on blogs and websites. I am the children’s pastor for Jesse Duplantis Ministries and we have the most awesome, fired up kids around.
      Where is the coolest “tech and gaget” website for kids. I want to find Countdown DVD’s Praise DVD’s, Game Show gagets.
      Your NEW “Super Strong God” DVD is AWESOME my kids can’t get enough of it.
      PLEASE don’t stop producing the kids PW DVD’s.

      Thanks,

      Pastor Tim Carpenter

      Tim,

      Thanks for your comments!

      You could check out http://kidology.org and visit their store for some cool stuff. And there is a CM that creates a bunch of cool stuff… but can’t remember it right now. I will post it once I find it!

      Todd, if you haven’t seen episode two yet check out here:
      http://kidinspiration.com/video/

      The long answer is: I moved to a Mac computer at home, and there is no really good software to make the vids on the Mac… so until I find a software solution… nothing new sorry!!!!!

      (I need something like Macromedia Captivate (I think?)

      That’s great David it’s really clear especially for people who are overwhelmed by the internet and don’t even know where to start, not that I am in that category but I know people that are.

      It’s a good video for all levels of experience with computers.

      Bless Ya
