@amcunningham Tweeted about it earlier today 🙂 in reply to amcunningham #
@cristinacost Looks like a great programme (http://litscimed.org.uk/main/). What versions of WP / BP are you using for the social space? in reply to cristinacost #
Agreed RT @EveD: Despite (and because of) Twitter’s 140 character limit, correct punctuation and capitalisation is actually quite important #
@simontrollope Awesome, thank you. Those directions look more comprehensive than any of the others I found in reply to simontrollope #
@simontrollope Can you recommend a trusted guide 4 rooting & upgrading the Hero? I’m finding a few variations that don’t inspire confidence in reply to simontrollope #
@simontrollope never mind, found a post 🙂 in reply to simontrollope #
@simontrollope What is the biggest advantage of 2.2 over 2.1? Wondering if I should use a more stable, older build, or the latest & greatest in reply to simontrollope #
@simontrollope The most popular custom ROM I’m aware of is Cyanogen’s mod. Is that recommended? in reply to simontrollope #
Great presentation by @amcunningham on social media and health professionals http://bit.ly/aj9ZnB #
@simontrollope Obviously I’d lose the Sense UI, right? Not that that’s an issue, just curious in reply to simontrollope #
@jacquesmillard Got an email from #HTC but they didn’t give any detail. That article you pointed out isn’t encouraging in reply to jacquesmillard #
@simontrollope Thanks for the input, I’ve been wondering about going down that route, but haven’t seriously considered it yet in reply to simontrollope #
Almost a year since #Eclair released & still no confirmed update for #HTC #Hero in South Africa. HTC: “Will require some time…” #

@paulscott56 Surely you’re uncapped? in reply to paulscott56 #
TEDxStellenbosch | … with Africa. Only just found out about this, hope I can make it http://bit.ly/dgV7hv #
@cristinacost OK, sounds stressful. Congratulations on getting past that speedbump 🙂 in reply to cristinacost #
@cristinacost I’m sorry, but what is “Interim Assessment”? in reply to cristinacost #
@cristinacost Thanks 4 pointing this out (http://bit.ly/aqDMYc). Raises good points re. transparency, furthering knowledge, public access in reply to cristinacost #
@cristinacost I guess I’m doing something that could be called an open PhD 🙂 #

Wishful thinking in medical education: What are the risks in sharing PhD findings before completion? http://bit.ly/a8xnHH @amcunningham #
@nlafferty Maybe individuals will hold workshops where benefits of openness can be discussed 🙂 Establishment probably won’t lead change? in reply to nlafferty #
@amcunningham I wouldn’t have thought moderators would be paid? I’m probably just naive. Will you be doing workshop? Seems like a good idea in reply to amcunningham #
@amcunningham I’ve never been involved in organising a conference of any sort but I have put stuff online, and it’s not expensive 🙂 in reply to amcunningham #
@amcunningham I can’t believe that it’s not included on the site. Maybe you should let them know 🙂 in reply to amcunningham #
@amcunningham Not “insignificant”…marginal relative to the cost of the conference itself in reply to amcunningham #
@amcunningham Agreed, but they have those costs anyway. Cost of moving content online is marginal, & so many would benefit from free access? in reply to amcunningham #
@amcunningham Cool, we should pull in @nlafferty too. Will post later, have to be away from pc for a bit 🙂 in reply to amcunningham #
@nlafferty That, and the fact that they’re charging at all. Can’t understand why they don’t open it up completely & let everyone benefit? in reply to nlafferty #
@amcunningham Saw that too, was initially excited but disappointed that they’re charging. Maybe I’m too used to a culture of sharing? in reply to amcunningham #
So excited when I saw this post from #AMEE 2010…until I saw the 2nd last paragraph. How NOT to share conf proceedings http://bit.ly/bRamfC #
