Hey everyone welcome to the first article of 2012 and this video is all about communication. As you can imagine it is a subject that is quite close to my heart now be thinking and about the year coming up, how I can make things easier for people and to produce content which people are going to want to absorb and to engage with. For now the work that I produce is either written articles at optical minefield my website or videos also on writen artices for the Nursing Times. The only place you can read my work is by going directly to the Nursing Times website or go to StudentNursingTimes.net. Of course you can receive these things through third-party applications like an RSS feed authors are a news aggregator like Google reader but I’m wondering if theer is more I could do so I’m asking if people would be willing to conduct a small 1 or 2 min survey you can find in the description of this video or in the article that you’re reading. That way I can better tailor what I do to the people who visit my site and read my work, just giving example, currently I write more articles than I make video. Would people prefer having my articles as an audio version for you to listen to as a Podcast, or a downloadable MP3, this would mean that people who prefer to listen to my work rather than reading will have that ability. Maybe you have a disability or some sort that makes it difficult for you to read or to access the internet. My personal preferences that I like to listen to audio books and podcasts as opposed to reading in the more traditional sense.

So this is all about making the work that i produce in 2012 (not only my personal stuff but the work for the Nursing Times) more relevant that the people that want it.

I hope you all had a great christmas and a fantastic new year and I look forward to reading the results of the survey and getting back to you with the findings.

Speak to you then
