I haven't seen any discussions on the topic of translation, so I'd thought I'd ask if anyone attending is using translation memory or services for their websites and/or internal/external material for alternative languages? Secondly, if you are using translation services/memory to help facilitate the process, how are you managing the process of keeping the alternate versions aligned with English?
With the growth in popularity of iPhone apps, does anyone have any experience developing and marketing one? I'm curious to know what hospital iPhone apps are out there... both for consumers and patients, as well as physicians and providers.
Thanks to all the veterans that have served our country over the years.
It was great to see everyone in Vegas. I hope you found it both educational and fun. Let us know what you thought about the conference and what suggestions you have for next year. We'd particularly like to know what topics you'd like more of, less of, etc., and any speakers you particularly enjoyed. You'll also be getting a formal online evaluation shortly. Thanks for attending and see you next year.
The conference continues to grow, with registrations already exceeding last year's numbers. We need your ideas on how to better connect people when onsite at the conference. This Website helps connect folks electronically, but how do we connect better when on site?
John and I will be covering the whole concept of outsourcing, why you'd do it, why you wouldn't, examples of what others are outsourcing, and looking at some new models in healthcare. Would love to get any input, thoughts or suggestions to make sure we make this session as useful for you as possible!
Does anyone have a best memory from the previous conferences you have attended?
Everybody I talk to says the most valuable part of the conference is the networking. But what's #2? The sessions, exhibits, or just being in Vegas?
If you could meet with one of our speakers... Which one of our speakers would you like to speak with for 15 minutes, face-to-face, and what would you want to discuss?
Any suggestions for a Vegas casino that will not be overly intimidating for a rookie blackjack player? I know that they are ultimately all equally likely to take my money, but I am searching for a place that will be friendly to beginners.
Inside the hotel at the conference I am sure it will be a comfortable 70 and dry, but FYI it looks like a great weather week in Vegas. As of now, highs near 80, lows in mid 50s and sunny. Pack your spring clothes, the conference is only a few days away!
I can't be the only guy going to this conference who doesn't like paying $8 for a bottle of water at the hotel. And given the scrutiny of hospital budget dollars I'll bet there are a lot of great ideas out there about ways to have fun, but save cash while in Vegas. As for me, I am going to take a side trip to the convenience store and pick up some bottled water and snacks. Any other ideas on ways I can save a few dollars? Where are the cheap blac... [read more]
This will be my first visit to Vegas. Can anyone recommend a good restaurant?
Does anyone have any recommendations on any good shows to see while in Vegas? I have been to Vegas a few times but have never seen a show!
Wow, I can't believe that it is almost time to go to Vegas! This will be my second year attending the Annual Healthcare Internet Conference. I'm hoping there will be SEM and SEO case studies presented this year. Who is interested in walking away with new information on SEM and SEO? I recently read an article about online campaigns for Bing vs. Google. The results reported in the article found that although Bing's percentage of visitors has starte... [read more]
I recently watched a brief video regarding blogs and the value they bring to users. The video indicates that if you follow blogs, you can get several perspectives and therefore collectively, have a better understanding of the subject matter as a whole. The assembly of bloggers, however, only brings value when those in the group have independent ideas and convey a unique perspective to the group. Otherwise, the group consists of like-minded people... [read more]
I'm having a hard time believing it is already late October and we have less than two weeks to the kick off of the 13th Annual Healthcare Internet Conference. A lot to do between now and then. We have been pleasantly surprised that our registration numbers have exceeded last year's and we will have a nearly full exhibit hall. If you haven't already, feel free to use the "my schedule" tool that is available when you click on "schedule" above to ge... [read more]
It looks like (at least from the little widget tracking our interests) that social media is on the top of everyone's radar. So the question begs to be asked... what for? What is the interest that grabs you? What are you using (or planning to use) it for (ie. class/event promotion, recruitment, community awareness, etc.)? What is your flavor or choice (ie. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.)? And best of all, are you getting anything tangible in ret... [read more]
Hey everyone! How are ya? Okay, we need to get a good conversation going on here...Let's see...First off, I've never been to Vegas so I'm definitely pretty pumped about this. Although I've never met any of you guys (although I'm sure I will), I may have to ask you to keep me accountable at the gambling tables :) I hope everyone is doing well and I look forward to meeting you.
Does anyone know if Rob Curley is speaking this year? I have really enjoyed his presentations in the past and I don't see him on this year's schedule. Also, anyone from Microsoft or Google coming? Thanks!
