Siemens unveils the P10 handheld ultrasound machine – Engadget

A new gadget for the medical professionals has been revealed. A pocket Ultrasound device that will eventually replace the stethoscope. A very geeky idea and I like it so much, but the need for “power” will limit it’s use along with the need for the gel. But of course electric sockets are found all over the hospital anyway!.
I am thinking to add a wish list in this blog

Facebook mania!

Most of my colleges have enroll themselves in facebook.com. I refused to do so. I believe this sort of sites will die in few years time same as hi5 and myspace, yahoogroups etc..
For now having a blog is a satisfying method of expressing myself to the world.

Backup: Discovering The Full Potential of Automator and iPod
So I am heading back to Mishref this summer, and I needed to backup all the stuff I have on my iMac to my iPod. iPhoto and iCal are already synced so as the address book and music of course. Few folders remained not synced so I enabled the desk usage on the iPod and dragged and dropped the folders. Then I remembered a nifty tool called Automator. After spending 20 min’s I made up a workflow that whenever I plug my iPod it will:
1- Rename the files on the desktop by adding todays date after each of them
2- “clean up” the desktop by moving these file to a backup folder on my iMac
3- Copy all the new files to my iPod
This will make me miss my iMac for the whole summer. Luckily I got my macbook to play with meanwhile.
