Communicating

Thanks to a link that Shannon sent to me and the work I have been doing with our MyChurch page I've been doing some thinking about the ways that we communicate with one another now and how that is going to change in the coming days. I know that I'm not unique in pondering these things. In fact I'm sure that there are mnay minds that are considering the impact of technology and social networking on the future of religious communication.
I don't have any answers but as usual more questions than anything fully understood. I wonder how the connections of blogging and social networking on line will supplement the usual ways of doing church? I wonder if we can find ways of communicating more effectively through the use of technology so that it will raise peoples level of interconnectedness and depth of faith in ways that will impact the church in positive ways? Can web 2.0 interaction raise the level of faithful action without face to face interaction or are people just fooling themselves?
I don't have the answers but I'm sure that we will have to face some of these things sooner rather than later.
Do you have any ideas or suggestions? How about people or groups that are dealing with this in creative ways?
