Among the findings:

•94% of physicians are using smartphones to communicate, manage personal/business workflows, and access information including medical reference materials. Of those, 44% of physicians have adopted the iPhone as their smartphone of choice, Blackberry came in second place with 25% of physician adoption.
•Physicians are overwhelmed by the daily volume of communications received from colleagues, care team members, and patients. They are forced to continually check separate data silos and manually filter and prioritize communications based upon sender, subject and priority. Critical communications easily fall through the cracks.
•78% of physicians experience difficulties accessing and communicating with colleagues in a timely manner. Physicians also lack financial incentives to be more accessible because the current fee-for-service reimbursement system encourages physicians to focus on the quantity vs. the quality of healthcare delivered. Non-essential phone or e-mail communications with colleagues and patients are seen as non-reimbursable distractions.

Instapaper Pro ($4.99) This is the app to use for grabbing pages for reading later while you still have wireless access. Heck, I have a Wi-Fi + 3G model so I’m very rarely out of network range, but I still use it because of its formatting options and cross-platform compatibility. It’s a joy, and the ability to jump from iPhone to iPad seamlessly with it makes it a must-have for business use.

To register your iPad, connect to your computer and launch iTunes.

iPad Users Guide

I used Jeff Atwoods article on Setting up Subversion on Windows to get started.

Once Subversion was up and running, I installed TortoiseSVN to create a repository, VisualSVN to connect to a repository and begun the CI installation.

Install Cruise Control on the Server and install as service
Configure the ccnet.config with a Project proj1
Create a working directory
In the working directory\bin directory, install nant, nantcontrib, visualsvn
Create a project directory in the working directory proj1
In the proj1 directory, create a nant build script
Start the Cruise Control service

Key is to get the config file correct. There’s lots of posts on getting CI working so this is just some brief notes.

Backing up in the CLOUD

Amazon S3 Services

Amazon S3 provides a highly durable storage infrastructure. Objects are redundantly stored on multiple devices across multiple facilities in an Amazon S3 Region. To help ensure durability, Amazon S3 PUT and COPY operations synchronously store your data across multiple facilities before returning SUCCESS. Once stored, Amazon S3 helps maintain the durability of your objects by quickly detecting and repairing any lost redundancy. Amazon S3 also regularly verifies the integrity of data stored using checksums. If corruption is detected, it is repaired using redundant data. In addition, Amazon S3 calculates checksums on all network traffic to detect corruption of data packets when storing or retrieving data.

Amazon S3 US – only $0.15 per GB-Month of storage used
First 5 GB Storage FREE

FREE data uploaded until June 30, 2010! $0.10 per GB of data uploaded thereafter
