Leading off today is an interesting story from Cardiff University about a potential “highly effective” treatment for asthma. This is a big deal because both my daughter and myself struggle with it, so you get to read some interesting science. Another link blog milestone today, the Morning Dew posted it’s 2000th Dew Drop! It is an excellent blog filled with a lot of web development and .Net articles. If you read my blog, you really should add the Morning Dew to your list as well.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
