Introducing Ebispo Pulse (Join and Win Some Stuff)

Update: the link to the pulse was broken. It has been fixed. Apologies.

In an effort to make this site more valuable–but without me having to do any extra work–I’m launching a little experiment I’m calling The Pulse (trendy name, eh?).

The Pulse is a social news site with a focus on christianity and faith. Since christians are often a few years behind the curve, I’ll explain what that means. A social news site is a news website where the readers both submit stories and vote on the their favorites. As a result, the most popular stories rise to the top. Good examples of general social news sites are Digg.com and Reddit.com.

The overall goal of a social news site (including this one) is to find new sources of information and encouragement, and foster discussion among users.

So, head over to pulse.ebispo.com, create an account and get started. You can visit the Recent tab to see the most recent articles/blog posts. Visit some links, vote them up or down, and leave some comments. If you write an informative or encouraging post on your blog, please submit it. We’re looking for christian news articles, topical or scriptural studies, interesting videos or images, and words of encouragement. Blog posts about what you had for lunch or pictures of your cat are strongly discouraged.

Participate and win some stuff

In order to encourage some participation, I’m going to give away some prizes. First, we’ll start with a couple $25 gift cards to the iTunes music store. Over the next 30 days, every time you submit a link or leave a comment on the pulse, you’ll be entered to win 1 of 2 iTunes cards. The more you participate, the better your chances of winning.
