No W3C GLD telecon Thursday 6-June-2013

Hi GLDer's,
Due to many members traveling to / from conferences (National Health Datapalooza in DC, SemTech SF, W3C TPAC Japan), we've decided to cancel this week's telecon because attendance would be low.

If you ever wonder why you do what you do to improve data standards and open data, treat yourself to this data sharing cartoon:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=N2zK3sAtr-4

The title of the video is "Data Sharing and Management Snafu in 3 Short Acts" by Karen Hanson, Alisa Surkis & Karen Yacobucci, NYU Health Sciences Libraries, August 3, 2012.  I used it to kick off a panel on clinical data aggregation at the Health Datapalooza & it set the tone perfectly ;-)

Please feel free to share blogposts about the many various presentations & workshops that you found insightful, interesting and/or funny, etc.

Safe travels all and speak with you next week, June 13th.

Cheers,

Bernadette Hyland, co-chair
