• Andrew Jones - adventures in Hybridity Parts 1 and 2
• Mark Bushor on the Brands of Christianity

• Brother Maynard - I thought Change was Inevitable
• Bob Hyatt - The Hank Hill church video. Downloadable link at Bob's site, view it here
• Michale Kruse - When Exploitation is Mutually Beneficial - on free trade

and Kiva - giving small loans to small businesses in third-world countries. I got this link from somebody's blog - and now I can't remember who. If you know who has linked to it recently, let me know so I can HT.

[EDIT] I just got a nice comment from Fiona Ramsey, Customer Relations and Operations Manager for Kiva. She jogged my memory that I got this link from Michael Kruse. Drop in over there and read what he has to say about this organization. It's pretty dang cool!
