#FOAMed - Free Open Access Meducation
Let's make a list of #FOAMed blogs here. More about the FOAM can be found here:

FOAM is the movement that has spontaneously emerged from the exploding collection of constantly evolving, collaborative and interactive open access medical education resources being distributed on the web with one objective — to make the world a better place. FOAM is independent of platform or media — it includes blogs, podcasts, tweets, Google hangouts, online videos, text documents, photographs, facebook groups, and a whole lot more.
If you want to know how we practiced medicine 5 years ago, read a textbook.If you want to know how we practiced medicine 2 years ago, read a journal.If you want to know how we practice medicine now, go to a (good) conference.If you want to know how we will practice medicine in the future, listen in the hallways and use FOAM.
