Serious network problems at RUG Groningen cause also some trouble for Netvibes library search modules. The modules files are hosted on servers maintaining the CMS of the RUG-website. These servers have been down the last several days, or at least been online on and off. I am thinking of hosting the files on other locations, if these problems are not solved soon. Do not delete your module, there is nothing wrong with it or with your computer. It just can not reach the original files. They will be back, when the systems are back online. Please contact me if you have any further questions.

For my contact at the NLM I made a MedlinePlus search module for Netvibes and dropped the idea of making a drop-down menu search module with various NLM resources. That is what I am going to try, but what resources should I include? I am already working on their great ToxSeek, the meta-search. Just click on the picture to add this module to your Netvibes page! Contact me for any suggestions and/or improvements. Tags: MedlinePlus , Medline , Pubmed , NLM , Netvibes , ToxSeek
