Richard Yes I know. We're all capitalists now and competition (apparently) drives up performance. How that will be possible with these two services is beyond me to understand. Daily Dose has been struggling for funding now for a number of years. Presumably Drugscope has chosen to secure funding for it's own service rather than supporting an existing excellent service. How very un-TC!! Am I alone in suspecting the spiteful hand of the NTA in all this?

DrugScope has launched a similar service with Jim Young, formerly of Daily Dose as editor. I suspect there will be a lot of duplication between the two and I doubt many people will read both, so it will be interesting to see how this plays out (declaring interest, I am a current advertiser on DD.) <http://www.dsdaily.org.uk/index.html>http://www.dsdaily.org.uk/index.html Regards ---------------------------- Richard Phillips ---------------------------- -- Academic Excellence at the Heart of Scotland.
