http://www.tristana.org/

Now that more and more websites offer a variety of dynamic materials (such
as podcasts and the like), it is increasingly more common to feel a bit
overwhelmed by the sheer volume of material on the Web. More discerning
users will appreciate Tristana Reader 4.0, which will allow them pull
content directly from the Web to their desktops. The application also allows
users the ability to set preferences so that they will be alerted to content
changes at any given site. The program is also spam-proof, which will be a
welcome relief to many. This version of Tristana Reader is compatible with
Windows 98 or newer. [KMG]

Direct to desktop content
Tristana is a free download (does not contain adware or spyware) which allows you to pull content directly from the Web onto your desktop without email.
Simply click and drag those orange feed icons or links (RSS or Atom) to Tristana to view news, blogs, podcasts and online content in real-time.

Now iPod friendly!
With our latest podcasting release, now you can search and download music and media files while you sleep and even synch with your iPod!
We've added a Downloads Manager to schedule and download up to five files to your desktop at once.
SPAM-proof your desktop
Quickly add, manage or remove content or media files onto your desktop in real-time
without having to provide an email address or share any personal information.

Reduce information overload
Consolidate web content more efficiently than your browser, manage information more easily than with email.
Tristana provides the ability to view RSS or Atom feeds in real-time on your desktop.
You can subscribe or unsubscribe to content on your terms, without risk of SPAM, privacy or security issues associated with email.

How does it work?
Tristana uses RSS and Atom which are standard XML formats for instantly receiving syndicated content over the Internet.
RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication" or "Rich Site Summary" or even "Really Stops Spam", depending on who you talk to.
Atom is a widely recognized open-source XML format for content syndication.
Basically both are really just highly efficient standardized formats for reading, managing and sharing timely information across the web.

New open access journal added to LYMAN online catalog

New open access journal added to LYMAN online catalog :
Ostomy/Wound Management

http://www.o-wm.com/owm/

Publisher: HMP Communications

Content available free online -- from v.47:no.11 (2001:Nov)-
Current Issue: v.51:no.6 (2005:June)

Ostomy/Wound Management was founded in March of 1980 as "Ostomy Management."
In 1985, this small journal dramatically expanded its content and readership
by embracing the overlapping disciplines of ostomy care, wound care,
incontinence care, and related skin and nutritional issues and became the
premier journal of its kind. Ostomy/Wound Management's readers include
healthcare professionals from multiple disciplines.
Today, readers benefit from contemporary and comprehensive review and
research papers that are practical, clinically oriented, and cutting edge.
Each published article undergoes a rigorous double-blind peer review by
members of both the Editorial Advisory Board and the Ad-Hoc Peer Review
Panel.

The Ostomy/Wound Management Editorial Philosophy encompasses the following:
a) to advance the science and art of skin, wound, ostomy, and incontinence
care;
b) help authors clearly express and share their findings and ideas;
c) improve the quality of patient care and protect the public by monitoring
the scientific integrity of information published in Ostomy/Wound
Management.
