Periscope: Start your church ministry.

Church is a serious matter. It is not joking sturvs[stuffs]. New churches are springing up everyday in Africa and Latin America. You know the pope is in the news again going to Ecuador and some other countries to create a more "inclusive" church. That is none of my business.

 You know how new technologies create new celebrities e.g falzthebadguy and drcraze of instagram fame and marquez brownlee of youtube, if you are interested in starting a new church you don't need to start from a small building and build your ministry from there. You won't be able to reach as many people as possible like that. Whether your calling is a genuine one is between you and God. My business in this post is to open your eyes to a very good way to kickstart and get the gospel you preach to a large number of people as possible. PERISCOPE. Yes, you read it right - periscope. That app created by a group of folks at twitter that has at least on dog on the development team (I guess the dog just wags its tail and barks at meetings). Back to business. Let us be serious here. Do you really know the number of people that don't go to church just because it is not convenient or because it is not "fashionable". Well I don't have an answer to that but just imagine that there is a group of people in this world that fit perfectly into that category you can reach them by starting a web church service on periscope. I heard some people share videos of themselves playing games. You can give it a try. Start your ministry on periscope, share the time of service begins on twitter with your friends, add a nice graphic or better throw in a vine to call people to watch the service. No one knows.

Yours sincerely. 

OMG!!! Someone just deleted my candy crush

Chill, just imagine that you have spent weeks on playing candy crush, the many levels, in the bus, in the toilet, on your bed, when you wake up, when you are bored, in class, when you are tired of your books etc Then one troublesome friend comes along and "mistakenly" deletes candy crush from your phone... Call the police, I think this should be a crime punishable by law. The truth is this happens once in a while, subway surfer, 4 pic one word you can lose interest totally once your progress is gone. No one wants to go back to square one.

I wonder if there is a service to help you save progress on games. I bet a lot of people will be happy to pay for such a service. Save your game progress across platforms on the cloud. Say, if you lose your phone or change phones. The same way you retain your google contacts or your facebook friends after changing your phone or logging out across devices. That will be awesome. I guess google can look into that (they already have google drive). Apple also has some cloud storage service. So who will solve this problem?

That periscope thing

It is not unusual for companies to take the name of everyday things and use them for their product. Look at fruits for example there is apple,mango,orange and other plants like cassava etc they are all company names. No wonder this one is simply called periscope. Periscope is an apparatus that includes two mirrors inclined at 45degrees to each other, not this one. You know that company with t and the blue logo that has a site that lets you send 140 character messages to stranger. Yes, twitter. Twitter developed periscope and periscope is an app that let's you broadcast yourself. They call it seeing the world with another person's eyes. Looking at the world through another person's eyes - you never know what you might find. So I was just online like everybody and I discovered everybody was talking about that periscope thing. So I decided to dig in and find out. When I use periscope I'll post about the experience. For now this is the picture of periscope before Twitter decided to disrupt the world.
It looks like this on the submarines.
