WHS 24: Avoiding Repetitive Stress Injury in Children | One of the biggest decisions you’ll make as a parent with regard to technology (especially computers) is how soon to let your child start using a specific product.

Google Docs vs Windows Live Office | Last week I compared MS Office to Open Office. This week I’ll be talking about Google Docs and Windows Live Office.

Customer Reviews
Put 'em in your ears!
This guy knows so much about about the stars he maybe the 4th wiseman. He knows all, sees all, sawsall! Each new episode brings you closer to tech perfection and straightens your personal walk with Christ through his personal testament
The Lost Art of Courtesy
If I could sum up JW in one word: courteous. The Jesus Geek never talks down to his audience, never assumes I ought to know more than I do, and never devolves the news and tips into tangential sermonizing. He does seek to provide geniunely useful and informative news bytes, and apply them to the home school, christian, and casual tech communities. Plus, the guy's just so polite! Even if you don't use his subject for the cast of the day (I'm not a Mac user....), John tries to make sure nobody's time is wasted listening to the show.
Christian Geeks rejoice!
Christian geeks, clear off some Ipod space, this is the show for you! John gives great tips, easy to understand explanations, and practical encouragement to geeks who follow Christ. Fear not, Non-religious geeks! This show isn't a preach-a-thon. It's a perfect balance of Tech info and Bibilical thoughts to ponder. Great job, John.
