         <description>When I went (about 10 years ago) for the first time, I was totally blown away. We had taken the prep classes, but they did not in any way prepare me for what took place. I didn't get it. I do not wish to sound negative. But it was not what I was expecting. Some members have said, "keep going, and soon it will make sense". So I kept going, and kept going. Eventually, rather than continue going and participating in something that clearly was beyond me, I stopped. I respect everyone's right to go, I don't discuss it with anyone, but I don't regret the fact that I no longer go. To each his/her own.</description>

         <description>As you may have heard, Stephen Hawking says universe is not created by God because, in a nutshell, gravity exists: "Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing". Moreover, he believes M-Theory can fully explain our universe and therefore God is no longer needed. At first I was going to stay out of this discussion since, as I said before, I &lt;p&gt;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6emLs5dgvDGlC5QgvbP-4av0ocI/0/da"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/6emLs5dgvDGlC5QgvbP-4av0ocI/0/di" border="0" ismap&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;

         <description>@PDG Let me just say -- I have NOTHING to do with the development group that put this together. I'm a merely a member of the Church that saw your post. Can I respectfully ask that you use discretion and look into things before jumping to conclusions and threatening legal action. Have you read the following: https://tech.lds.org/wiki/index.php/LDS_Maps_English_Help#Download_or_print_confidential_household_data I'm in the bishopric, so I can see confidential information. When logged in with my wife's account, I can only see the same information that I could see in the existing directory. Household names, Phone, addresses and children names. The Church is charged with perfecting the saints. Do we not want to enable church members to know one another and call on one another to accomplish that? These technological improvements are the BEST THING imaginable to help members have access to current contact information and current ward member info. It's a wonderful thing! I wish I understood the paranoia that you seem to have over this. It's a church roster. Ages aren't even listed!</description>

         <description>Great work Joel. I love the new design and ward directory info. Why is the directory information different on the current site though? My current online directory shows incomplete data for YM/YW leaders, but is valid in the new one, so MLS must be right somewhere but the current stake/ward directory isn't getting updated online correctly?</description>

Well, it is still out there and great, but I think I just found something better.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.zoodles.com"><img class="alignnone" title="Zoodles" src="http://www.zoodles.com/images/zoodles-logo.png?1283315033" alt="" width="250" height="60"/></a><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.zoodles.com">Zoodles website link</a></p>
<p>Zoodles is a Glubble like product. It lets you create a family profile and add each kid, but it is focused on education. What&#8217;s more, it has this amazing reporting back-end that allows partents to look at what the kids are learning based on areas like reading, math, science, etc.</p>
<p>I was looking around for a game tonight on my phone to entertain (and educate) my 5 year old preschooler and just ran across this on my android phone. It is a free download to install.</p>
<p>I was very pleased when she opened it and it had a ton of the <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://starfall.com">Starfall</a> games (another great website for young preschool learners) right on my phone. She had a blast.</p>
<p>Unfortunately it costs about $5/month to track what the kids are doing, but it lets the kids keep playing even if you don&#8217;t have an account to see what they are doing.</p>
<p>Of course I went ahead and set up profiles for all the rest of my kids and they had appropriate stuff for them as well.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m so losing my phone for the next couple of weeks to the kids&#8230; and I&#8217;m okay with that. <img src='http://mormontechie.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley'/> </p>

         <description>I can see there is no concern about privacy whatsoever. I just logged in and I saw, and even exported all the member information from my own ward, with all the data of my family showing by default. During the beta I warned through the feedback that this was not only dangerous but illegal (nobody asked my concent to publish information of my family, nor to allow somebody to download it from the Church). I already "updated my profile", but still I have to warn all the members about it... I'm so angry that I'm really considering starting legal actions.</description>
