The Cochrane Collaboration - Welcome first-time visitors! - 0 views

    This is an idependent organisation reviewing healthcare studies and basically judging the results. Something like the ACT for international medicine. Sounds interesting in the approach. Their suggestion for swine-flu prevention: wash your hands frequently. Nothing helps better.

News - General: Winston the pigeon wings it - 0 views

  •  
    I always new it - the future of telecom is with pigeons ... (what happened to our idea of the pigeon inspired navigator??)
  •  
    Well, it's been newn... I mean known since computer networks were invented that it'll take them a long time to match with a throughput of a train carrying recorded media. The point is that throughput is not the only important parameter: the other is response time... (BTW let's see how this commenting feature works, not many folks seem to use it...)
  •  
    I do use it quite regularily .... a train full of DVDs and flash drives, yes ok - but a pigeon!!!!
