Go to News Report Headlines...When you enter 'diabetes news' into the search engines you get thousands of results offered - many of which are repeated.
The news covered ranges from local interest stories; such as fund raising in the local community, to the cutting-edge results of diabetes research.
I'm guessing ('cause it's what I tend to look for) you're probably more interested in diabetes news that makes life easier for you; gives relevant and important advice; warns about actions that could be detrimental to your health and so on.
So I thought you might find it handy to have a 'filtered diabetes news page' - and that's what this is.
Deciding Which Diabetes News is Relevant
This is what happens:
I trawl for new diabetes news stories
I read each one (obviously!)
I then stick my Editor's hat on and ask myself these 4 questions:
Is this local or global news?If it is local, is the information it contains relevant to anyone with diabetes?
Does it offer valuable advice (rather than just a PR article for a large pharmaceutical company for example)?
Bottom line... does it give 'added value' to you, my visitor?
If I believe it gets through these OK then it gets added to this Your Diabetes News Report page.
Do I Always Get it Right?
Probably not! 'Cause I'm human and I might miss something. If you happen to see a news item you believe other diabetics would want to know about, and it isn't already listed, then I (and my other visitors) would really appreciate you taking the time and trouble to pop a note to me. Include the URL to the news article you found so I can check it out. Send your Diabetes news lead.
What You Get in Your Diabetes News Report
This page contains the headline and a brief summary of the news article. The link then goes to the full story in a new window.
This Your Diabetes News Report page is updated every 7 - 14 days, unless something really crucial catches my eye in which case I add it immediately. The important thing is you don't get inundated with hundreds of news items every day (especially if you subscribe to my mini-blog; see below)- only the pertinent and useful ones are included.
How to Keep Up to Date with Your Diabetes News
Subscribe to my mini-blog using the links on the left, at the bottom of the navigation panel. Every time I add new material, including interesting news items, you get a notice in your RSS reader.
