Tuesday Tech Talk: Video Reflections on Daily Readings

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' website is a wonderful and robust website for all things Catholic. I plan to do a review of the complete site in the future. Today's Tuesday Tech Talk (T3) is focused on a recent addition to the site - video reflections on the daily readings.

The USCCB has produced a series of videos which reflect on the Gospel reading of the day. The reflections are led by priests and lay people alike. Most of the reflections are no more than five minutes long. They make a nice complement to reading the scripture of the daily mass.

The videos can be shared by email, IM, Facebook and Twitter. My one complaint is that the videos cannot currently be embedded in blogs or parish websites. I would have liked to have embedded one as an example.  For now, I will share the link to the Martha and Mary gospel reading from today.

One other minor criticism is that clicking on the Reflections link does not take you directly to the day's reflection. Instead you must click the tab for the month's reflections and scroll down for the day you are looking for. I am sure this will be worked out over time.
