Internet woes

Diary entries have been a bit erratic this week - our Web site domain host experienced technical difficulties all week, perhaps as a result of the Blaster worm that is doing the rounds.

Those of us in Australia (and elsewhere) who use the ozmidwifery mailing list to stay in touch, found that our lifeline was down and for almost a week. Dozens of emails flowed in from subscribers asking where their beloved list was - it was nice to know that it was missed. This list was one of the first of this kind and has been going for over 5 years. It has an archive service too, so that people who want to check what was discussed earlier on a topic can track it down. One day it will be used for research - especially for someone who want to track the history of midwifery innovation in this country. If you are interested in joining us for a while, the instructions on joining can be found here. We have a number of international readers - the world is such a small place!

After a chaotic week with the Internet, it seems that all is back to normal. Ten years ago we hardly knew what the internet was all about and now we have come to reply on it almost completely for quick communication, information and resources. Some of us have even managed to leave technophobia behind (sometimes after a bit of a struggle)!
