  • Publication number: 20060200483
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for an integrated blog in a collaborative environment. In this regard, the collaborative environment can include a named collaborative space and one or more collaborative components disposed in the named collaborative space. For instance, the collaborative components can include a discussion forum, a persistent chat, a shared calendar and a shared document library, to name a few. Importantly, a blogging application can be disposed in the named collaborative space as one of the collaborative components. To that end, the blogging application can be coupled to a collaborative blog internal to the collaborative environment.

  • Publication number: 20060047323
    Abstract: An implantable lead device and method for implanting the lead, wherein the lead device electrically stimulates tissue within a patient's body and more particularly the lead device stimulates gastrointestinal tissue. The implantable lead may be inserted through the tissue with minimal expansion of the penetration tunnel and attached to the tissue being stimulated with minimal efforts or apparatus. The implantable lead has flexible properties thus minimizing the potential for electrode erosion, maximizing tissue compliance, and minimizing the mechanical stress concentration that may result in fatigue failure in the lead.
