Blogger's Delight
SPQN, Father Roderick's group, is sponsoring the first Catholic New Media Celebration in Atlanta on June 22 right after their Eucharistic Conference.
Blogs, podcasts, websites, software, games, and just about anything interactive are considered New Media and both creators and consumers are invited to this one day event. From their website:
CNMC is a day of sharing the latest technologies and techniques used by both religious and laypeople to creatively and effectively invite others to grow in the Catholic faith through new and modern ways, not only in parishes and dioceses, but throughout the whole world. New media includes podcasts and online video, games and software, websites and blogs, mobile technology and all things interactive.
From the description of the schedule, it looks like pod-casting will rule the day. Fr. Roderick will be there as well as the writer of That Catholic Show. Registration is free. Check it out.

I love consuming hip Catholic new media!! iTunes has lots of great stuff and I'm thankful for SQPN and their evangelical efforts. Their mission is to actually bridge the gap between the secular and the holy--how refreshing! In their own words:
"Just as the star of Bethlehem emerged within the foreign culture of the three magi, and invited them to start an adventurous journey to the newborn Savior, the programs of SQPN tap into popular culture to invite people on a journey of discovery towards an encounter with Christ."
Love it!

WOAH! Thanks for the tip. I'm in the area and planning to attend the Congress for sure! I'll see if I can get away for Sunday as well!
