I’ve had conversations with friends recently about the Church’s approach to and use of the internet and social media.  John Piper has started using twitter and, unlike most folks who take up technology without consideration, has posted about his reasons for it on his blog.

He says he sees two responses to social media and the internet.  I would add a third, which I think is much more prevelant: the adoption of technology without any consideration of the consequences that he mentions.
