Grand Rounds Celebrates Its 200th Edition!
The 200th edition of Grand Rounds (the first and most famous medical blog carnival on the Internet) is now up for your reading pleasure at the popular medical blog, Grunt Doc.
For those of you not yet acquainted with blog carnivals, they are like online magazines usually devoted to a particular subject, featuring links to posts by multiple bloggers, and usually “hosted” by a different blogger every month. Change of Shift is a nursing blog carnival founded by Kim over at Emergiblog , an award-winning nursing blog of which I am exceedingly fond. For a directory of blog carnivals, visit Blog Carnival , a clearinghouse for such online wonders.
Do you want to pass some time reading some of the best writing by and about the healthcare field? Grand Rounds and Change of Shift are the places to start.
Signing In and Signing Out
An interesting edition of Grand Rounds is up at Signout this week. In my perpetual ignorance, I didn’t learn until after I had submitted my contribution that the theme was “the interface of scientific evidence with health and healthcare”. My esteemed colleague stated that about 40% of bloggers submitting pieces to this current edition gave that theme the proverbial finger and were subsequently left on the cutting-room floor. Apparently, the talented and forgiving medical resident who writes and edits Signout felt my piece was sufficiently appropriate and featured it early on in the proceedings. Thanks to my colleague at Signout, and happy reading!
A Cup of Grand Rounds
Please see Emergiblog for this week’s Grand Rounds (with a creative Starbuck’s theme). This is the first Grand Rounds to which yours truly has submitted a post for some time. Enjoy it with a cup o’ joe.
