Greetings from Taipei! I'm wrapping up a 2-week vacation here in Taiwan, which included several visits to the world's tallest building, Taipei 101.

I won't be posting for the rest of the week as I will be stuck in an airplane for 16 hours and trying to recover from overeating, oversleeping, and the 14-hour time difference.

In the meantime, check out this week's grand rounds over at Matthew Holt's The Healthcare Blog. Instead the usual "weekly best," Matthew has solicited 2005's best - definitely check it out.

Looking forward to see how the healthcare blogosphere will continue to evolve in the new year. Thanks to Andrew Barna and Nick Jacobs for your insightful blog contributions. And thanks to all for reading, emailing, and commenting.

See you in 2006!

And thanks to all those who worked the Christmas shift.
