PC World – Six Easy Ways to Conquer Gmail
Six Easy Ways to Conquer Gmail
There’s much more to Google’s free e-mail service than an inbox. Here’s how to turn Gmail into a major productivity booster.

After a long courtship, I recently pledged my everlasting love for Gmail, forsaking all other e-mail systems (well, almost) in favor of Google’s free, Web-hosted service. But as in any relationship, my passion for Gmail is constrained by practical concerns. Though it possesses many excellent qualities, Gmail is far from perfect. Fortunately, I’ve uncovered some strategies that will give my walk down the aisle with Gmail a good chance of yielding a happily ever after.

I have most of these (with the exception of the last one and I concur wholeheartedly!). This is a great list of stuff to have for improving your computing experience.

As a frequent downloads reviewer for PC World, I look at lots of downloadable software every year–more apps than I care to count. As a result, each week, I encounter and test-drive the great, the not-so-great, and the feeble.

Every once in a while, a piece of software so clearly outclasses its peers that it deserves special commendation. For this article, I’ve assembled my 15 favorite dowloads of 2007, selected from a wide range of categories–everything from antivirus and security tools to system tweakers, from media managers to system speedups.

Among them you’ll probably find some old favorites, but also plenty of unfamiliar apps that you’ll grow to love.

Rick Warren’s Ministry Toolbox

Why pastors need to embrace technology
by Manda Gibson

Brad Powell – senior pastor of NorthRidge Church in Plymouth, Mich. – says that ministers must be driven by two things: revelation and relevance. And he says few churches get both right.

Revelation has to do with God’s truth, and he says that most churches do a good job of communicating truth. But almost all churches struggle with relevance, he says.

“For me, revelation is the value, but it’s only valuable to people if they understand it,” he said. “Relevance deals with speaking the language of the culture; it’s the conduit through which all communication takes place.”

For Powell, a major part of being relevant is being savvy about technology. The language of today’s teens and 20-somethings is MySpace, Facebook, iPhones, and iPods, he said.

“We are in a technologically based culture,” he said. “If we don’t learn to embrace technology, we will never be able to communicate to this culture and generation.”
