Nathaniel,
Sincere thanks for the support -- it means a lot. We'll continue to point anyone interested in social innovation to your writing, which is an incredible resource.

Thanks for the extremely kind comment, Sherry! I couldn't be happier we've crossed paths.
P.S. 50 phones in the last 5 hours. You all are amazing.
Thanks for the post, Nathaniel!
Dear Change.org friends,
Please spread the word. The goal of this campaign is to give even the smallest clinics access to tools - in this case, recycled cell phones - to help serve their patients. Post any and all questions + thoughts here, and I'll be sure to respond!
Thanks so much, ahead of time, for helping us out.
Josh
@leatrice We can definitely use them! Shoot me an email at josh@medic.frontlinesms.com and I'll explain how. Many thanks for reading.
@Ken 'The studies' will always be there. ;)
@Nathaniel I'm really excited to be on here, and can't wait to read the other EOTV posts.
Josh
Fantastic post, Nate!
I'm very happy to hear you've been following the project. The points you make above resonate with what I've seen on the ground. The last point (in particular) I imagine would resonate with the hospital staff.
The medical staff in Malawi are simultaneously users, owners, and benefactors of the program - which wouldn't have happened without FrontlineSMS.
Looking forward to continuing this conversation!
Josh
