    I am sure many of you are all familiar with this website. It brings web2.0 to life within the Mormon community.  The funny thing is right after it was announced in conference the site was overloaded and unable to fully recover on the picture upload for about two weeks!

    Our class should organize a Mormon Mingle outside of regular class time. Maybe we can create a Doodle on which class members post their available times to meet.

Holland, Church leader, in a 1997 speech. “We are just moving steadily, and we think wisely, to use it along with every other way we know to communicate with each other.”

      What a cool idea. It can be a great way to learn the gospel and to bear your testimony.
  • You Can Do It Too!
  • It’s a gray, drizzly Saturday morning, but the children of the Danbury Connecticut Ward aren’t in their pajamas watching cartoons or playing video games. They’re busy making videos of their own. And their videos will help thousands of people learn about the Book of Mormon! It all started when their bishop had a great idea. Bishop Summerhays is a media expert who teaches children from many countries how to use technology to create positive messages. Why not teach the children in his ward the same thing? Now the children, joined by children from the Newtown Ward, are sitting at five long tables in the Primary room. Stacks of construction paper and poster board, pens, and scissors are on the tables. Each group will be making an animated video of a different Book of Mormon story:

    This is site that contains documentaries on the life of members of the Church. This was contest put on by BYU. I feel like this is the precursor to the churches campaign "I am a Mormon." There are some great films here.

    The LDS church is member sourcing their new public relations by inviting people to submit their own "Mormon Message" video. The church is inviting people to make use of official LDS media (musical and video recordings, etc.) within their individual creations.
