1. The document discusses the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD), which provides a standardized system for classifying headaches to facilitate communication between professionals, research, and treatment guidelines.
2. The ICHD has evolved over time through various editions, with the current ICHD-II published in 2004. ICHD-III is expected in 2013 and will include revisions based on new research findings.
3. While the ICHD has advanced the field, it also has limitations like being too detailed for clinical practice and not considering other important diagnostic factors. ICHD-III aims to address some of these issues.Intro - Geomob Feb 2011

This document discusses the British Museum's database of archaeological finds and efforts to integrate geospatial data to enrich the records and make them more useful for research. Key points include:
- The database contains records of archaeological objects found in the UK but spatial data is not fully utilized currently
- Adding GPS coordinates and linking to other datasets like historical maps and photos could provide valuable context about the finds
- Technical challenges include protecting private location data and displaying maps at appropriate levels of specificity
- Integrating additional geospatial sources could help researchers study patterns of human activity and landscape use over timeBen Dowling - Geomium - Building a Geo App - Geomob Feb 2011

The document describes a proposed website called LikeOurselves.com that aims to connect online communities offline through geolocation. It seeks to address the challenge of taking online conversations offline by allowing users from various online communities and organizations to organize real-world meetups and events easily without much effort. The website would leverage the large user bases of sites like Etsy, LinkedIn, blogs and more to facilitate worldwide gatherings and meetups with just one email. Examples provided demonstrate how the site could work for groups of all sizes from local to global levels.O. O'brien - Visualising bike share - Geomob October 2010
