RNchat Transcript: October 29, 2009

Below is a SlideShare of today’s #RNchat, organized in chronological order (from beginning of chat to sometime just after). Today’s topics were Drug Diversion. Usually we have two topics, but tonight’s topic seemed to spark a lot of interesting dialogue, so I let it go on for the entire hour. These slide decks are also on RNchat’s Transcripts page.NOTE: Twitter crashed just as the chat started and so the tweet about the topic (T1) did not make it into the file below. Here’s Topic 1:
