| Favorite Online MT Resources
Look here for links to the places we MTs go online to research blanks, find sample reports, educate ourselves about medicine, and meet with other MTs in online communities. Have patience: This is a work in progress and will probably grow very slowly with an emphasis on quality.

| Google for MTs
Google is an MT's best friend. It's often the first place MTs look to find a word to fill in a blank. Smart MTs always confirm Google results with info from more authoritative sites. Here you'll find some special ways to query Google.

| Read any Good Books Lately?
This is sort of a free-form book group. MTs periodically post to mention books they're reading and enjoy; others join in on the discussion. What have you read this week? Start a discussion by posting about it here.
