Thoughts from The Mayor of Worldwide Breast Cancer
Mapping the Journey of The Worldwide Breast Cancer ProjectArchive for mashup
My new purchase: 9,000 mammography centers
That’s right, today I bought 9,000 fda approved mammography centers from the US Government Information folks, and it only cost $85. I’m hoping to put them all on a map for you real soon!
It’s getting exciting!
Google Health, now available
For a minute I thought I might be out of a job and my breast cancer map made redundant when I saw the new service by Google, “Google Health”. But then I tried the doctor search tool and discovered the breast cancer map is still oh so needed (click image to see at a decent size):
But a collaboration with this tool would be amazing, don’t you think? They have an open API. Anyone know who I would talk to to get the ball rolling?
Top 20 Winners announced tomorrow!
Thanks to everyone for voting for my map mashup! The top 20 winners will be announced tomorrow morning at 9 PST. I’ll let you know what happens!
How to vote for breast cancer
I’ve made a mashup project for my phd breast cancer work and need votes to get it built by a group of geeks who feel democratic.
If you have 5 minutes to spend, I’d really appreciate it if you could take the time to vote for it before Friday afternoon, here’s the details:
Ok. Let’s rock the vote!
1. Please register and log in to the NetSquared site by Thursday, and pick a user name for a new account. They will email you a password. (don’t worry, they won’t spam you, these guys are good guys)
2. Registration has been automated for the duration of the voting process. If you did not receive a confirmation email, please check your junk mail.
3. Click the Projects link to review project proposals.
4. Click on my Worldwide Breast Cancer Map project in the list and click “add project to ballot” at the top of my project page.
5. You must choose at least 5 (and up to 10) of your favorite projects.
6. You may only vote once for a project.
7. Once you have chosen the 5 projects you want to vote for, please review your selection.
8. Submit your ballot to cast your final votes. Once you SUBMIT, that’s it!
They request that you vote for 5 projects. I think it is to help get more than one project to stand out. So, add 5 projects to your ballot and then submit them. The voting ends on Friday at 4pm Mountain Standard Time. There are some cool mashups out there!
Thanks! Email your friends and have them vote too! 🙂
