blogging tweeting networking director

you may (or may not) have noticed via twitter or facebook that i was presenting on the new environment (my preferred term for culture following marshall macluhan's lead) for cms directors – networks, communication, leadership, community, participation, new media and all that – and implications for mission. it went well. i can proudly report that cms does have one blogging, facebooking, tweeting director – phil simpson who spends half his life connecting with people across asia. go say hi.

his dream for church and connectivity is somehow captured in the slightly brilliant and slightly 'how do you get a job like that?!' wherethehellismatt who travels the world and dances in various cultures with various peoples..

    bugger! I’m in a cafe, stealing wifi from the apple store next door on my widows laptop and decided to have a look at the wherethehellismatt 2008 video. embarrassing enough that I laughed out loud, but then I started crying too! Has to be the most wonderful image of what mission should be that I’ve seen in years.
    thanks

    Hi Jonny and all,
    The Matt Harding video is brilliant, has a funny story about his original and then a chewing gum company sponsoring him to go again and the result is the slightly more commercial but very moving clip… a little disappointingly Matt does a VISA card commercial that’s not nearly as clever BUT I gues it answers the ‘how do I keep a job like that?’ question.
    I wonder if/how it’s linked to mod comm’s, the Free Hugs Guy, and or the ‘Surfing 50 States’ aussies?
