How Skribit Can Help You Build Interactivity
I’d like to offer Skribit a happy belated birthday. They’re a little over one now! Haven’t heard of them yet? In addition to having a funny name that’s worth a chuckle (it’s pronounced “scribe it”), Skribit can help churches and bloggers build interactivity.
Skribit helps build interactivity by allowing people to suggest and vote on topics that they’d like to hear about. (Full disclosure: I’ve installed it on my own blog, and am currently testing out the features. So if you’d like to suggest a topic for me to research and write about, write it in the Skribit tool on the Modern Ekklesia blog). This has originally been designed as a tool for bloggers, but I believe this could be of use to churches in several ways.
For one, churches can use Skribit on their website for a period of time for sermon suggestions. I’m planning on having a summer series called “You Asked For It! Top Questions From the Bible.” I’m asking the people to submit questions that they’d like to hear about. Out of all the questions that are submitted, I’m going to have them vote on the 8 most popular topics. They submit, vote, and prioritize the most important topics. That’s why it’s called “You Asked For It!” Get it? Ok…
Secondly, churches can use this as a digital suggestion box. The possibilities are quite endless. If you want to give people the opportunity to suggest and vote on anything, Skribit is your tool.
Have any other ideas for cool uses of Skribit?
**As an update, I’m planning on taking one or two questions a month that are addressed via the Skribit tool and answer them in a feature called “You Asked For It!” So thanks for the first two questions, and keep a look out for the new feature.

Also, just want to let people know that through the Skribit tool I'm only taking suggestions for topics that fall within the stated guidelines of this blog. For example, on this blog I cover issues dealing with the intersection of leadership, church, and technology. If you have other theological or doctrinal questions, please email me directly, and I'd be happy to help address those questions.
