Happy New Year to all of our readers – I sincerely hope that your holiday celebrations were filled with peace and joy. These first few days of 2012 find me returning to my desk and computer after a nice long break over the Christmas holiday to savor time with family and friends.
The excitement and busyness of the past few years, with the growth of my work on the Internet, my speaking engagements... READ MORE

Fun With Flash Drives
Posted by DariaSockey in Reviews on Wednesday, August 03, 2011
This week’s Staples back-to-school ad featured flash drives meant to appeal to the 6 to 10- year -old crowd. It prompted my 20-year-old son, Joseph, to have that “feeling really old” feeling that I get on the average of every couple hours.
He recalled that back in the old days (6 years ago in the 8th grade), only his very techie teacher had this amazing thing, the size of a stick of gum, that could... READ MORE
Unplugging and Not Judging
Posted by Lisa Hendey in News on Thursday, July 28, 2011
This week on the Faith & Family Live Cast (click here to listen or click on the player above), Elizabeth, Sarah and I share a topic inspired by my recent “unplugging” for a moms’ retreat. Together, we look at the tricks and treats related to becoming less “wired” and share our own struggles and experiences. Have you managed to find any downtime yet this summer? Have you “unplugged” much yet, as a... READ MORE
Modern Reading
Posted by Rachel Balducci in Family on Wednesday, June 22, 2011
I am not one of the millions of people who uses an e-book reader, but the more I hear about them the more intrigued I become.
If you’re thinking, um, e-book vs. regular book is sooo two years ago, I’ll admit I am slow-moving when it comes to technology. I know all kinds of people started using these gadgets a few years ago, I just have not felt compelled to give one a try.
Lately, however, it seems... READ MORE
Did You Know You Could Do This With a Kindle?
Posted by DariaSockey in Reviews on Thursday, May 12, 2011
This is my recent anniversary present — an Amazon Kindle.
Three months ago, I never would have dreamed of wanting such a thing, belonging, as I do, to that group of people (generally over age 45, although there are younger exceptions), who disdainfully sniff at the idea of ebooks.
“Who wants to spend any more hours staring at a screen than I have to?” we say.
“I like holding my book in my hand while... READ MORE
PlayStation Protection
Posted by Lisa Hendey in News on Wednesday, May 11, 2011
If you’ve got gamers in the house, I hope you’ve been paying attention to the recent Sony PlayStation debacle, where a security breach has resulted in the private information of the network’s 70+ million users being compromised.
Your family is impacted by this if you have a PlayStation that is connected to the PlayStation Network. If your kids simply use the game console to play offline, you shouldn’t... READ MORE

Prayer in the Digital Age
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Faith on Wednesday, April 06, 2011
Later in the week, I’ll be excited to share with you the continuing adventures I’ve been enjoying for the past few days. But today, I want to interrupt my travelogue to tell you about an interview I’m sharing this week with my good friend and Danielle’s (and my) radio producer extraordinaire, Matt Swaim. Matt is the author of the brand new book Prayer in the Digital Age.
I’ve known Matt for a few... READ MORE
