Interesting and lengthy article on “metabolic syndrome,” the cluster of conditions revolving around obesity.
An interesting example of one way to deploy quickly produced, nuggetized learning modules.
Review: LinkedIn
LinkedIn is a “social networking” site for professionals. Think of it as a global referral network, whereby you can find people through a web of trusted connections. I’ve used LinkedIn extensively for years now, and have found it to be a quite valuable platform for making new (and renewing old) connections.
You create your own profile which is viewed by people within the LinkedIn network who are connected to your trusted connections. A great way to find like-minded professionals, conduct a job search, and maintain your contacts in a web-based environment. You can also make elements of your profile publicly available on the web.
Just for Fun…
I’ve enjoyed the off-beat humor of Despair.com for a long time – a great take-off on the “Success” posters littering many corners of corporate America. Now you can make your own “poster” graphic – just upload a photo, put in some text, and have some fun poking fun at yourself or someone else!
