GREETING CARDS 4U. Mike has been online since the Almost-Dark Ages: 1996. As a result he gets 1000+ e-mails per day – 99 percent spam. (He uses Mail Washer to sift out the bad stuff.) Over the years his GREETING CARDS 4U site has grown to include some great things for kids (see Winnie the PooH’s Place), greeting cards that are especially good to know about at Christmas, and much else. Here is where you see what he has for you:

ANDIE’S ISLE

     ANDIE’S ISLE isn’t just a website. It’s a beautiful musical experience. ANDIE has flash movies of Christian and patriotic music you can enjoy online, along with a DVD for those who are not online. ANDIE’S ISLE is an especially good place to visit during the Christmas holiday season.

GODTUBE AND YOUTUBE

     GOD TUBE is the Christian answer to YOUTUBE. As with YOUTUBE, you can put your requests into the search box. I put in “southern gospel” and got this wonderful lady:

     And there’s more where she came from. Explore its offerings at:

     AND THEN THERE’S YOUTUBE: Since southern gospel is one of my favorite kinds of music, I wondered if YOUTUBE.COM had any. So I went there and put “southern gospel music” into the search box, and you guessed it: they’ve got a lot. Here’s a good one:

     And I hate to say this, but I have a feeling YOUTUBE is better than GODTUBE for Christian music, just because it’s got so much. And also, oddly enough, YOUTUBE has less intrusive advertising than GODTUBE. So put the name of your favorite singer or group into the YOUTUBE search box, and see what they have. If you like the “Gaither Homecoming” programs, put that into the search box. I did and got a bonanza!

A MILLION POSSIBILITIES

     This item’s title is only a slight exaggeration. The CHRISTIAN TUNER leads you to a wealth of Christian radio stations, radio programs, and Christian music of all kinds. Decide what you want, and go for it.

     CHRISTIAN-LYRICS.NET says they are “taking steps needed to bring the Christian lyrics industry where it needs to be going.” There’s a Christian lyrics industry? Good grief.
