Can we have PDAs in Trip please?

On Fridays I'm a GP. This first tweet was sent just before I started seeing patients on an afternoon in July.

    Any chance that decision aids could be added as a category to Tripdatabase? @jrbtrip http://t.co/prMTtYg #meded

  4. Less than two hours after my tweet, Jon said that Trip would add patient decision aids to the database.

    @amcunningham how's that for quick decision making! For the new site (out in 2-3 weeks) we'll have a PDA filter :-)

  9. Just after the weekend Jon let me know that he had already found almost 300 PDAs to add to the database.
  10. JRBtrip
    @amcunningham Managed to find 294 patient decision aids to add to TRIP for the launch of the new site (2-3 weeks)!

  11. And when the next vession of Trip was launched on August 3rd 2011, less than 3 weeks after my tweet, PDAs were there!
  12. Over the next few weeks the word started spreading about PDAs in TRIP....
