rocketsurgery99: Long-awaited ACCP 9th Antithrombotic Guidelines now available from CHEST. #AT9 http://t.co/s5EpNasR
You've possibly heard a lot of buzz lately about RSS (Real Simple Syndication). ACCP launched its new and improved Web site utilizing RSS feeds to populate some of the content. CHEST is going to be adding new RSS feeds to help readers find the content they want. If you haven't heard much about it, you're probably asking yourself, "what the heck is RSS anyway?" Here are our friends at CommonCraft again to 'splain it to us.
To make the most of your RSS feeds, you need a reader. Of course Google has a great reader. If you haven't used it, check out what it can do for you:
And here's a tutorial from GoogleReaderHelp:
This edition of my blog is a great example of how "blogging" is actually a Klingon term meaning "stealing other people's stuff". Seriously though, sometimes I just want to show tools to people and not pontificate too much. I'm sure you don't mind.
This blog, "It Ain't Rocket Surgery" is intended to help busy health-care professionals find useful online and mobile resources that will enhance their self-education and professional research efforts, or point out important topics of discussion related to online information and content. The blog's title is a Yogi Berra style mash-up of two common phrases, "it ain't brain surgery" and "it ain't rocket science". I hope it will be casual, fun, insightful, and -- most of all -- educational.
You can follow me on Twitter.
I currently serve ACCP as the Senior Vice President of Communications, as well as the Executive Editor of CHEST, the ACCP’s flagship journal. During my 15 years here, ACCP has focused on growing and developing the editorial, technological, and business aspects of the College. We are constantly striving to make the journal and other ACCP educational content as accessible and useful to clinicians as possible.
When not at work, I like to spend time scuba diving with sharks, collecting original comic book artwork, exploring the digital world, and searching for good BBQ.
Your feedback about the blog is always appreciated. So are tips on good BBQ joints.
