In case you haven't noticed, here at Health Care Communication News we love lists, and when people go to the trouble to pull them together we wish we could reach through the computer with a high-five.

So, thanks, Blogging E-Nursing. High-five! We think nurses are going to love your list of "Top 25 social sites for nurses." We do.
