Networking Online

For those DLnet reps that attended the DLnet residential & those that were interested in the presentations from the "Personal Networking" day, who wish to further their networking.  The latest issue of Computeractive W/E 04/08/04 has a 4 page article about online networking.  There's a paragraph about safety issues and a table comparing sites.  Unfortunately, the article isn't yet on its website:

This is the same issue with the robot librarians article & cartoon.  No I do not have shares in the magazine!

Midwivesonline e-Newsletter Launch

For those who have not visited this site before midwivesonline is a very useful, informative and easy to navigate website for Midwives, Healthcare Professionals and New Parents. They have recently revamped the website, so those that haven't visited it recently may want to take another look.

They are also set to launch an exciting e-newsletter for midwives. Recognising how little time midwives have to surf the Internet for information relevant to their practice, they are offering midwives a free, monthly, informative, single-sheet e-newsletter.  The core purpose of the newsletter is to inform midwives about the latest free, web-based resources to help them 'stay ahead' in clinical practice.  It will also include relevant new sites that may be of help to the mothers/families midwives care for.

To receive this helpful newsletter for free go to:

and complete the short form. The date of birth field is not mandatory, for those who prefer not to provide this information
