May 3 2026, on a rainy Sunday, we sang to the theme of “our screen-filled world”. Each song was tied to media viewed on a screen. We were joined by the Halifax Boys Honour Choir, the Maritime Conservatory Brass Ensemble, and soloist Ryan Billington.

Incidentally, friendster is back!

Someone is probably using it! You should too!

It’s been more than a decade since social media platform Friendster went dark, but a new owner has brought it back from the dead – sort of – with the hope he can give exhausted users of modern platforms a reprieve.
