These include having with you 24/7: a still/video camera, diary (which can syncronize automatically to other family members, work colleagues, church etc.), satnav, photo album, note-taker, alarm-clock/watch, Kindle e-reader (there's a free Kindle app – and there are plenty of free classics to choose from), news updates, games as well as all the usual web services – browsing, email, Facebook, Twitter. Free (or very cheap) apps extend this functionality in many ways.

Awesome Screenshot - Chrome add-on looks great
This looks like a very valuable Chrome browser 'extension' (ie. add-on), and much easier to use than trying to manipulate a screen shot in a graphic program later. It surely has a wide range of uses.

Sci-fi and fantasy stories can communicate spiritual truths
The Mars Curiosity landing, and our farewell salutes to Neil Armstrong, bring to mind several sci-fi/fantasy books and short stories based on Moon or Mars landings. These have a spiritual dimension that offers conversation-starting and thought-provoking questions.
