I’m a long-time subscriber to Smashing Magazine’s super cool design blog RSS feed. It is probably the king of “top lists” when it comes to design hints, resources, and practices. And the quality is superb. You can tell that they really have an eye for design, and not just a bunch of geeks who decided to run a design blog.
Partly out of gratitude for their great resource, and partly because I think it looks like a great book, I recently ordered their Smashing Book.

I have just switched from RapidWeaver to WordPress as my blogging software. At the moment, my blog looks very generic, but I plan to update it over the next several days and weeks into something nicer.

Not too long ago, perhaps about two weeks ago, a friend, Sandra Entermann, contacted me about joining a Facebook group she had started, The Great Controversy Readathon. The purpose of the group was to read the 42 chapters of the book The Great Controversy in 42 weeks, starting September 1.
At the time of my invite, there were only 8 or 10 members of the group. I had been reading The Great Controversy as part of my research for a series of articles I’ve been writing for 3ABN World, called “Our Heritage.” I thought joining Sandra’s group would be a great way to study the book more deeply, since I had not read it straight through since college. Being able to dialog with other readers would help me gain fresh insights, and would also provide a place to share what I’ve been learning. I thought maybe the group might grow as large as 20 or 30 participants, and we’d all have a great time sharing with each other.
