While other companies, including Pfizer, Amgen and Sanofi Aventis chose to continue to navigate the dark waters of social media for Pharma. What prompted J&J and AstraZeneca to shut down their Facebook page?  The ... ePharma Summit blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=5140249 Tue, 16 Aug 2011 19:02:00 +0100 5140249 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=3037060&cid=t_198431_134_f&fid=35187&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedproxy.google.com%2F%7Er%2FDiabetesDaily%2F%7E3%2FdvGg0KsO5uE%2Fslow-down.php Back in the day, I could read ALL of the diabetes related blog posts in a couple hours.  Now?  I can't read all of the diabetes related blog posts no matter how much time I have.  There are just too many out there.  I think it is so great to have so many of us all sharing our stories and perspectives on living with diabetes.  It is hard living with diabetes.  But we somehow find a way to share the difficulty in creative ways, and we capitalize on the times we can laugh and smile about it.  It is fantastic!These days I seem to only find small pockets of time to read blogs.  When I do, I try to catch up on as many as I can.  Today I was reading entries from Rachel over on her "Tales of my Thirties" blog.  I was reading and commenting and read...

She played the “sexism” card. She thought she should have a short cut to promotion because of her gender. She did not get it so she had a hissy fit. Late last night on Sky News, Michael White of the Guardian also described Flint as having a "hissy fit". Iain Dale, sometimes too gentle for this world (Iain will defend Nadine Dorries even when she takes her position of the week), leapt to Flint’s defence.Because White started being sexist and I questioned Gordon Brown's mental state. He accused Caroline Flint of having a "hissy fit". "Don't be so sexist," I said. Eve Pollard nodded in ...

Since I deal with college and graduate students, trying to get things down to the level of an elementary school student wouldn’t enter the picture, unless I put on my parenting hat (I have one that will be in third grade in the [...] (Source: Ruminations of an Online Instructor MD) Ruminations of an Online Instructor MD blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=1715294 Fri, 30 May 2008 15:12:48 +0100 1715294 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=1715296&cid=t_198431_90_f&fid=37832&url=http%3A%2F%2Fdrdyer.edublogs.org%2F2008%2F05%2F27%2Fresearching-personal-branding-on-day-27%2F I wasn’t exactly sure what constituted a “Personal Brand” so I started today’s activity by trying to figure it out.
