| | Google Squared: this is an awesome new tool, which I think vet students would find useful. It lets you type in a category-- for example "beta blockers"-- and it uses this to generate a spreadsheet; down the left side is the "items" which, for beta blockers, returns a whole page of stuff I don't want (conditions for which you might use beta blockers) but if you go to the next page, you get a list of drugs. Across the top are attributes; it will select some common attributes by default, but then you can add your own. In this example, the automatic categories were "image," "description," "metabolism," "excretion (hepatic or renal), and "generic name." I added "half life," and it immediately searched across pages to find the half life of each drug. A simple mouseover a square tells you the source of the info so you can go and double-check for accuracy.
Try it; it is really really awesome.
