Out With the Old

I just archived a bunch of old entries off to a different area of the site. I got tired of looking at such a long list of categories, half of which I wasn’t using. I’ve kept pretty much everything since June of last year, which is when my focus shifted to mostly web-related content.
The old [...]

Toulouse on Firefox

According to “Wired”:http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.09/view.html?pg=3, Stephen Toulouse, security program manager for Microsoft, uses Firefox.
Toulouse was interviewed about recent security flaws in IE. He mentioned Firefox in passing, and I think he only brought it up in a lame attempt to show that all browsers are subject to the same security issues as IE — all he said [...]

Browse Happy

A new site, “Browse Happy”:http://www.browsehappy.com, has been created by the “Web Standards Project”:vhttp://webstandards.org/act/campaign/happy/. It’s aim is to reach the world with the message that there are alternative browsers. They have (or at least, will soon have) testimonials from users of “Mozilla”:http://www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x, “Mozilla Firefox”:http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox, “Opera”:http://www.opera.com, and “Safari”:http://www.apple.com/safari.
They also feature information about why IE is unsafe, along [...]

Twain on the Christian Vote

I read a great quote recently by Mark Twain. This comes originally from the September 2, 1904, edition of Collier’s:
bq. It will be conceded that a Christian’s first duty is to God. It then follows, as a matter of course, that it is his duty to carry his Christian code of morals to the polls [...]

New “Foundation” Blog

I’ve been working on it behind a closed curtain for some time now, but “Joey Day : Foundation”:http://www.joeyday.org is finally ready for human consumption.
This new blog will be about my theology and faith, and I would encourage you to read and/or bookmark it if you are curious about what I believe. I’ve separated the content [...]

The Case for a Creator

==

==
I recently finished reading The Case for a Creator by Lee Strobel. I’ve read through about half of The Case for Christ, so I already knew this book would be a fun read.
Strobel’s style simply has a way of sucking the reader right into the story. In all three of his “Case” books, he’s traversed [...]

Edification Sidebar

I’ve added a new “Edification” feature to my sidebar. I plan to list all the theology- and faith-related books I read. I’ll also try and review most of the books I list.
I’m still tweaking things, so you might see some additional functionality appear over the next few days.

Joey Day : Foundation v1.0

Welcome to my new faith and theology weblog. I’ve been wanting to put this up for a while, and I’m excited to get started!

Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3

I haven’t made mention of any of the Firefox releases lately, because they’ve all been pretty trivial, but I suppose it’s worth mentioning that “Firefox 0.9.3″:http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox and “Thunderbird 0.7.3″:http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird have been released.
Get ’em while they’re hot, folks.

Traffic Jam

I always thought it would be fun to administrate a high-traffic website. Now that I have one, I’m not so sure anymore.
