Clover has been a proud sponsor of Justin Taylor’s blog for a while now, and after hearing a little of Clover’s story decided to interview me on his blog. You can check out the interview here.

We are also planning on doing an iPad giveaway through his site sometime early next week, so stay tuned for that.

If you had a chance to go to Catalyst West Coast a couple of weeks ago, you might have run into our friend, Mondo Scott. Mondo is the Student Life Pastor at Cornerstone Church in Moorpark (and Clover user), and graciously accepted the invitation to represent us at Catalyst.

I received a text from Mondo early morning on the 22nd of April with the following photo (with Mark Driscoll):

Knowing that Mondo is both hilarious and a tad bit outgoing, I asked him to take more pictures with minor Christian celebrities in front of the Clover booth… But I asked him to make them as awkward as possible. Here’s the next series of photos/videos I received (in order):

Mondo + Carlos Whittaker

Next…

Mondo not paying attention to Aaron Keyes

Next…

Mondo catching up on reading with Dallas Willard

Next…

Mondo getting arrested by David Caruso from CSI Miami (not really)

Next…

Mondo shamelessly plugging Clover from stage

And for the Grand Finale:

Rick Warren Hearts Clover (it was his idea to say all that, by-the-way).

There’s no real reason for this post, other than the fact I thought it was pretty funny. None of these dudes necessarily endorse Clover in anyway (except for Mondo), but I was proud of Mondo for being a Christian celebrity-stalker. It was great entertainment while we were taking care of the finishing touches on the Greenhouse.

Be careful with free fonts, though… Especially if you’re  a designer. As with most things in life, you typically pay for what you get.

If you are looking for a very tangible way to help the situation over there, let me encourage you to come along side Compassion International’s efforts to provide vital food and water to families in Haiti.

In order to read more about what they are doing or to donate to their efforts, go here.

All of us at Clover are praying for the people in Haiti. We’re praying that they see God’s love, grace and strength like never before.

Well that was fast. We have been doing some testing and everything Clover related is now up and running. It appears as though this was also affecting many other companies and organizations that use Amazon S3 as well. Good to see that the Internet is working again!

Have a Merry Christmas.

We have just been informed that the Amazon S3 (one of the technologies that Clover uses) is experiencing some problems currently. Therefore, some of your Clover sites may not be working as of now. It is 5:30 PT here. You can follow our Tweets for live updates on the issue. Our Twitter feed is HERE.
