Looking at all things around mobile, social and innovation. Without the hype. By Angus Robinson. June 25, 2007. I’ve just set up my first Skyrove. Hotspot using our iBurst desktop modem as the connectivity option. It was a fairly easy setup, with great support from the Skyrove team. After some initial dead ends, the Reset button set me free. Another minor incentive for iBurst to improve coverage…. The best 100 Web 2.0 Apps. Bloggers invited to Toyota Auris media launch →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Thursday, December 28, 2006. It has been a roller coster ride! Professionally I have been stretched to think out of the box, wing it and deal with very 'special' staff. Emotionally I have been humbled, frustrated, elated and learnt that my patience can only be stretched so far. Friendship could be the most critical lesson I've learnt and am continuing to learn. Its beautiful and difficult all at once. You get a year's work experience and you get paid to do it - no more over burdened free student work!

Saturday, March 31, 2007. So we moved to a quieter neighbourhood. What is everyone going on about - there's no reason to leave the country! We were just starting to get used to safely going for walks in the evenings when. last week the bliss was shattered and the tension returned. Henk's scooter was stolen in broad day light in front of our house. (a story familiar to most South Africans). I think I'm developing some sort of paranoia about crime/ chronic generalised PTSD - listen to this. Isn't it shocki...

Monday, February 26, 2007. Quest for knowledge nosedive. Fear grips me - corners me and asks "surely you should know what to do? After studying for four years I certainly don't know it all - the old saying "the more you know the more you realise how little you know" is oh so painfully true. It wrecks. Havoc with my perfectionist character and is given life by my fear of asking. I went to this seminar. Today presented by Dr Sally Hartley, here is a link to the Disability dialogue.

Friday, April 27, 2007. Sometimes we teach people to 'bound'. So often I see the bewildered look on people's faces. Its the look of ' I've just been plucked from my happy world and made vulnerable - now everyone is laughing at me' See the video clip:. Part of our jobs as health professionals is to help people recognise their strengths and abilities. And to let other people recognise this. Posted by altheab at 9:57 AM. Monday, April 23, 2007. I feel the pressure of needing to know everything all at once&#...

Wednesday, May 16, 2007. Wow so the Zambia trip is taking place in just over a month! I need to prepare loads of stuff to ensure that the primary health care info I teach is relevant and effective! At least I have a topic : Water purity. From this topic I hope to discuss various things such as illnesses spread through unclean water, importance of washing young babies regulary.etc. Please let me know if you have any info on purifying water in a sustainable, cheap way i.e. no fancy gadgets! My husband's bu...

manictalesofsanity: I'll blog for you baby!
http://www.altheabarry.com/blog/2007/03/ill-blog-for-you-baby.html
Monday, March 19, 2007. I'll blog for you baby! I recently went to an interview for a Christian missionary trip into very rural Zambia. I'm bursting at the seams to use my skills for community development - having been overwhelmingly inspired after meeting the likes of Frank Kronenberg. So part of the interview focussed on who will support me - of course primary emotional support will be from my husband. But. what about spiritual? Henk is (what he likes to call himself) a Bright. For you, baby! If you wa...
