'Life as a Doctoral Researcher'

 

#phdchat tweet log - 5th October 2011

 

@NSRiazat - Welcome to #phdchat - the topic tonight is 'Life as a Doctoral researcher' (open topic to discuss as appropriate)

@TallMIGirl - @sussexreshive #phdchat How does one participate in the chat???

@ICTwitz - @NSRiazat So #phdchat tonight is for full timers and part timers?

@lizgloyn - @TallMIGirl Just follow the #phdchat hashtag, and make sure you tag everything you want to add to the conversation! Good to have you :)

@aeratcliffe - @TallMIGirl Welcome, Barb. #phdchat

@mark_carrigan - @ICTwitz @NSRiazat I'm guessing so! I'm part time :) #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - @lizgloyn #phdchat Thanks!

@Eingang - @TallMIGirl @sussexreshive Use your Twitter client or Twitter web search to follow the #phdchat hashtag. Include #phdchat in your replies.

@TallMIGirl - @Eingang #phdchat - I use TweetDeck and have a column that follows the hashtag, so I guess I'm good to go. THX!!

@ICTwitz - @mark_carrigan How do you manage time with everything? #phdchat You have a job as well?

@ai1sa - does a phd candidate have a life - not in my case. Does the phd have a life of its own- absolutely, Its taken mine #phdchat

@OTEllenN - Life as a PhD researcher means reframing my PhD as my leisure occupation...#phdchat

@ICTwitz - @ai1sa I think it's all about carefully managing time, and not to see the process as a race #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @ai1sa it certainly takes on it's own dynamic #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @ai1sa #phdchat - a life? What's one of those? To be honest my time with PhD students and faculty staff is most of my social life.

@ai1sa - @ICTwitz im not in a race, Im yr 7 out of 8 PT #phdchat

@ekvraga - But it's especially hard to manage time when supervisors and colleagues are depending on you... #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - Life as a P/T PhD researcher means having to focus every spare minute. #PhDchat

@srossmktg - Like the crazy rabbit, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late to valuable #phdchat time...

@sussexreshive - @TallMIGirl good to see you in #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - @ICTwitz #phdchat - agree ... and having laser focus on each part of your life -- work, research, family, etc.

@TallMIGirl - @sussexreshive THANKS! Good to be here for my first chat. #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @TallMIGirl It does make one wonder why we do it in the first place #phdchat I am told, it is worth it in the end. Where is the end?

@Eingang - @TallMIGirl Are you PT at Sussex? Me too. I don't have laser focus though. #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @ai1sa yeah,my phd is my life too&i suppose i've (rightly or wrongly) just accepted that cuz i just wanna get the damn thing done! #phdchat

@srossmktg - Alright, where are we at with the discussion? I had a significant theory breakthrough via my advisor yesterday/today... #phdchat

@lizith - @EmmaBurnettx very topical given we're talking about life as phd student :) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @weeladybird1981 as hard as it is sometimes though, I think it is also very important to enjoy the whole process.. #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - @ICTwitz I do it for the ability to control my formal learning journey for the first time in my life. The credential is icing. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @lizith Absolutely! I keep finding myself giving in to more with the kids to compensate for my absence every evening & weekends! #phdchat

@ai1sa - @weeladybird1981 i want it done, and i enjoy it, letting go could be a prob for me. Its been a quarter of my adult life! #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @lizgloyn oh yes, i am living in tunnel-land at the moment! :) #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @weeladybird1981 Ditto! It is pretty much all I think about from morning to night. #phdchat

@SueFolley - Hello all :) #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - @Eingang I'm P/T at Trinity College Dublin. I refuse to let this take longer than 5 years - hence focus. #phdchat

@mark_carrigan - @lizgloyn couldn't agree more! currently about 6 months away now and getting into this state #phdchat

@ekvraga - @ICTwitz @TallMIGirl There isn't an end. The goals change but the stress & the pace remain. That's why you've gotta love it. #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @srossmktg Congrats on the break through. I'm just joining also. What is the topic? #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @lizgloyn Yes it feels like a tunnel. I can see things outside the PhD, but I see them all in terms of PhD and managing time #phdchat

@lizith - @weeladybird1981 @lizgloyn I'd quite like to be in tunnel-land, but got other responsibilities & things I have to do/choose to do #phdchat

@srossmktg - @allonsdanser I believe it's "Life as a doctoral researcher" #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @EmmaBurnettx yes i agree, maybe i enjoy it too much-will have to be resocialised when it's finished! :) #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @ICTwitz - no #phdchat doesn't mind part time or full time reseachers. Am part time PhD. :)

@mark_carrigan - @ICTwitz with great difficulty! omnifocus & getting things done help a lot. yep, mostly freelance stuff though which is easy to fit #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @mark_carrigan @ICTwitz - also part time. #phdchat

@Eingang - #phdchat Kearns (Flinders U): "If your research isn't in the top 3 important things then it's probably not going to happen. "

@JaneDavis13 - @lizgloyn hmmm ... I'm not sure about that .. as a full-time worker and mumnwife #phdchat

@cgenter - "@OTEllenN: Life as a PhD researcher means reframing my PhD as my leisure occupation... #phdchat" exactly! can't remember life before PhD

@EmmaBurnettx - @weeladybird1981 I often say I will need therapy to learn how to cope with civilisation again! #phdchat

@Lemness - @ictwitz It's totally worth it. the end will come. #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @srossmktg I'm comfortable with that. I guess I didn't realize it would feel like this - always thinking about research. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @Eingang absolutely agree! #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @ai1sa i'm the same-i think it'll be hard for me to let go of it too as i really like the process. #phdchat

@Lemness - @srossmktg: what's the breakthrough? #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @Eingang oh dear - can't that be the top 4? :( #phdchat

@lizgloyn - #phdchat Think it's key to know that the tunnel stage will come, and work to keep a balance until it absolutely has to.

@kesloane - Howdy, all. #phdchat

@ai1sa - @allonsdanser because of this (all absorbing of thinking space) I think its important to choose something that will go the distance #phdchat

@allonsdanser - Can someone please RT the topic for todays #phdchat I"m a little late joining.

@Eingang - @TallMIGirl #phdchat It's not that I actively don't want to have laser focus or I don't want to be done. I just have more trouble than most

@srossmktg - @allonsdanser Isnt that how it should be though? I know with my field, everything around me is rsch potential. Always on my mind. #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @Eingang unless I count sonandhusband as one! #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @SueFolley Hi! #phdchat

@lizith - @JaneDavis13 @Eingang LOL! I count family and home as 1 #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @lizith yes, i'm lucky that i can live full-time in tunnel-land until it's submitted... #phdchat

@ai1sa - phd tip: choose topic & method u dont mind thinking about for at least 5 yrs #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @mark_carrigan You either need an incredibly supportive family, or completely isolate yourself it feels like sometimes #phdchat

@srossmktg - @Lemness Theory from another subfield explains what I've prev been saying; seems to carry into my field, but hasnt been looked at. #phdchat

@aeratcliffe - I am p/t. However, while my business is slow, I should be putting in f/t effort. I'm trying. #phdchat

@merry30 - Going to miss #phdchat tonight. Just finished huge chunk of writing, and now I need to go home and find some food. Will catch up tomorrow.

@srossmktg - Make it 10. RT @ai1sa: phd tip: choose topic & method u dont mind thinking about for at least 5 yrs #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @EmmaBurnettx ha ha i'm the same! :D #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - @ICTwitz I have the completely supportive family -- it allows the laser focus. #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @TallMIGirl @sussexreshive - follow the #phdchat hashtag and contribute to ideas that interest you. :) Great to see you on #phdchat.

@allonsdanser - @ai1sa @srossmktg Yes, I love doing research. Can hardly believe I'm lucky enough to be doing a Phd! #phdchat

@lizith - @EmmaBurnettx @allonsdanser I think they're right - it is a luxury! #phdchat

@Eingang - @JaneDavis13 #phdchat Hugh Kearns (Flinders U) was giving a seminar on defeating self-sabotage for Ph.D. students.

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx lol - I don't think I have enough time for this research - it's always a juggling act :) #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @allonsdanser Topic is life as a doctoral researcher. #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @lizith @eingang <whooping loudly> yay! It's in my top 3! phew! #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @JaneDavis13 I suspect there will still be a crunch point a couple of months before submission, tho it may look different to f/t #phdchat

@Lemness - @srossmktg It's great how it just all comes together. sometimes it just takes time for that to happen. that's great. #phdchat.

@EmmaBurnettx - @SueFolley we should get a PhD in juggling! #phdchat

@NSRiazat - "@TallMIGirl: Life as a P/T PhD researcher means having to focus every spare minute. #PhDchat" - agreed.

@ICTwitz - #phdchat I must admit that my foot has gone off the gas for my research recently, but meeting supervisor tomorrow for a kick start

@allonsdanser - @MisaimedBrain Thank you! The socialization process has been vigorous in my program. Lots of support from the dept. I love that. #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @Eingang sounds interesting ... Any link to slides etc? #phdchat

@kesloane - @Lemness thanks, lem! #phdchat

@srossmktg - When I went to a PhD open house, Q was asked: whats your fave part of being prof/rschr. A: I get paid to go ask Qs and find As. #phdchat

@Lemness - I had to schedule "thinking" time - I just couldn't write and think at the same time. It would just take more time. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx yep - that would be good :) I could do that! #phdchat

@lizith - @NSRiazat @tallmigirl just for info, I'm @sussexreshive - @SarahR_H has been advertising #phdchat new sussex students all week :)

@JaneDavis13 - @lizgloyn could be tricky! #phdchat

@srossmktg - I was sold on PhD from that moment on. No other career has that going on. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @ICTwitz no problem - welcome to #phdchat :)

@Eingang - @JaneDavis13 #phdchat No slides, I'm afraid. It seemed like a politically correct "Men Are From Venus" & "Women From Mars"

@sarahthesheepu - #phdchat suggestions on how i present my online work to an interview pannel in a portfolio how would people do it?

@ekvraga - Definitely the best part - what keeps us going! MT @srossmktg: Fave part of being prof/rschr. A: I get paid to ask Qs & find As. #phdchat

@srossmktg - @Lemness Yeah, this has been a long time coming, but the serendipity is sublime. I might finish a thesis afterall. ;) #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @Lemness Are you able to just 'think' during thinking time? I find my best thinking happens when I'm not consciously thinking! LOL #phdchat

@Eingang - @JaneDavis13 #phdchat in that particular "cultures" were identified and more typical of men or women, but it's not set in stone.

@SueFolley - @Lemness I can't wait for mine to all come together :))) #phdchat

@kesloane - @Lemness schedule "thinking" time // great point. #phdchat

@Eingang - @JaneDavis13 #phdchat Possibly most useful thing was to acknowledge the different approaches and encourage other side to try new things.

@ICTwitz - @sarahthesheepu Create an interactive ebook? #phdchat

@salma_patel - @sarahthesheepu You can't present it to them digitally? I created a document with a list of work categorised, and screen shots. #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @allonsdanser #phdchat That reminds me. Today new PhD students at our uni were doing team-building exercises involving planks.

@EmmaBurnettx - @kesloane I do a lot of my thinking time when out running early in the mornings! #phdchat

@srossmktg - @Lemness Thinking in the shower. Thats how to do it. #phdchat

@NSRiazat - "@lizith: @tallmigirl just for info, I'm @sussexreshive - @SarahR_H has advertising #phdchat new sussex students all week :) Brilliant. :)

@Eingang - @JaneDavis13 #phdchat For example, devil's advocate is an individualistic competency & should be encouraged to try "angel advocacy" s/times

@Lemness - @srossmktg I guess the key is to figure out when to stop digging and start writing huh? at least for it was. #phdchat

@NSRiazat - "@Lemness: I had to schedule "thinking" time - I just couldn't write/think at the same time. It would just take more time. #phdchat - same!!

@allonsdanser - @MisaimedBrain Ha! What was that like? #phdchat

@ekvraga - How do people deal with thoughts keeping them awake? Get up to write them down or try to turn off brain & sleep? #phdchat

@kesloane - @EmmaBurnettx me too, on my morning walks and of course, bath time. :) #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @allonsdanser yup same - 24/7! #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @Lemness tend to scribble notes during 'thinking time' but writing always separate activity. #phdchat

@Lemness - @ICTwitz I do so when I'm driving. It works for me. "Thinking" time helps me maximize "writing" time #phdchat.

@ICTwitz - @EmmaBurnettx @kesloane Gazing out of train/plane windows; long walks usually work for me. Sitting and thinking doesn't really! #phdchat

@lizith - @ekvraga keep a notebook or digital recorder by the bed #phdchat

@srossmktg - @Lemness Dig and write, dig and write. #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - @NSRiazat @lemness - My reading and thinking time tend to happen on the bus to and from work. #phdchat

@mark_carrigan - @weeladybird1981 @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat 'resocialised' is a good term. my social skills have declined pretty dramatically in last few years

@MisaimedBrain - @ekvraga #phdchat I rarely drop off very quickly to sleep, so having ideas - when it happens - doesn't make much difference.

@salma_patel - @ekvraga Stop doing work and switch off (computer) at least an hour before you go to bed = good rest & feel refreshed next day. #phdchat

@andycoverdale - @sarahthesheepu depends what you mean by a 'portfolio' #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @weeladybird1981 One of the good things about #phdchat is that u see how others are experiencing same thought (cont) http://t.co/PqLLKt3e

@NSRiazat - @ekvraga got to write them down - always carry 'writing pad' on Blackberry. Thoughts come at strangest of moments. #phdchat

@srossmktg - @mark_carrigan What's a "social ... skill..." #phdchat

@Lemness - @tallmigirl what do you do for "thinking" time? notes? mindmap? #phdchat.

@MisaimedBrain - @mark_carrigan #phdchat social skills? What are those?

@SueFolley - I find just thinking I get too distracted too easily, hard to stay focused :( #phdchat

@ICTwitz - phdchat Off subject a bit, but has anyone utilised an Amazon Kindle to HELP with their reading? Especially when travelling #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @mark_carrigan ditto! #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @Lemness Good idea. I think I need to schedule thinking time. There's soooo much reading/analysis to be done. #phdchat

@kesloane - @mark_carrigan @weeladybird1981 @EmmaBurnettx I've made a deliberate effort to undo this. Schedule one social event a week. #phdchat

@Lemness - @srossmktg Yeah, I guess that's just part of the process isn't it - then it all comes together. #phdchat.

@ekvraga - @lizith @NSRiazat @MisaimedBrain But doesn't that encourage wakefulness? We've all gotta sleep (& me especially)! #phdchat

@kesloane - @ICTwitz Yes. Just bought one last week! Read on the train last weekend. Helpful. #phdchat

@srossmktg - Ive got Springpad (Android/Iphone/Ipad/web) RT @NSRiazat: @ekvraga got to write them down - always carry writing pad on Blackberry. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @NSRiazat like in the supermarket! Always happens to me! #phdchat

@salma_patel - @Lemness @tallmigirl I do scribbly notes, mindmaps and I use prezi too as a digital board to gather my thoughts on #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @MisaimedBrain @allonsdanser #phdchat - bet they're happy to be team building for PhD using planks haha. :)

@Lemness - How do you as a doctoral researcher - reorganize your ideas? That always brings about new insights for me. #phdchat

@lizith - @ekvraga @nsriazat @misaimedbrain no - it means you can let go of the idea without losing it - there tomorrow, now go to sleep - #phdchat

@statweestics - #phdchat is getting popular, +700% the last hour : http://t.co/8Qt8g0aQ

@Lemness - @allonsdanser We try to do our thinking during our writing and it just makes the process longer - for me #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @Lemness Normally get other people to look at them - they see new ways of presenting things that I'm too close to see. #phdchat

@ekvraga - Me too! & problem seem less stressful when running. MT @EmmaBurnettx: @kesloane I do a lot of my thinking time when running! #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @kesloane that's really good - I just can't be bothered with social stuff anymore. I'm sure there's therapy for that too! #phdchat

@Eingang - @ICTwitz #phdchat Yes, I'm combating one of my problem areas of not reading related books by reading e-book chapters while cycling.

@allonsdanser - @Lemness Agree. I took a "day off" & noticed that good ideas kept popping into my head re: research. #phdchat

@Lemness - @ictwitz I wish I had my Kindle app during writing. I wish I had an iPad during my writing. I do like paper though. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @ekvraga Couldn't agree more! #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @lizgloyn @lemness explaining to someone else is useful #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @NSRiazat #phdchat When I was told about the exercise, I said I could solve every PhD problem I ever had, if I had a plank.

@lizith - @EmmaBurnettx @kesloane I try to arrange date at least once a week with dh when we can go out and get away from phd & other stuff #phdchat

@Eingang - @ICTwitz #phdchat I already was using my iPad heavily, even around my house, for reading/annotating PDFs.

@profkrg - Am I missing #phdchat? I never remember the timezone thing.

@mapetite - Research symposium proposal outline is progressing nicely thanks to my advisor, who totally rocks! Excited about this paper! #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @jgmac1106 Integration with @Evernote must be a great aide! #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @profkrg Still in time to join! #phdchat

@srossmktg - @profkrg It's 130 your time. :P #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @mark_carrigan i dread to think what i'll be like by the time i've submitted! ;) #phdchat

@profkrg - @lizgloyn Did we just start? What's the subject? #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @Eingang Sounds dangerous :-s #phdchat Do you mean at the gym?

@Lemness - @salma_patel great idea. #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg dang it! I was thinking 2 :( #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @profkrg Half an hour in; on the life of a doctoral researcher, broadly defined #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @lizith @keslone that is really good - & important! #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @profkrg You've only missed about half an hour of #phdchat

@srossmktg - @Lemness Been debating investing in a tab... #phdchat

@yukrla - Hello, finally I got here on time! #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @Eingang My iPad bluetooth keyboard is making that a real possibility (with Pages) at the moment with my writing stage/s #phdchat

@profkrg - Boo for being late, but I'm here! #phdchat

@NSRiazat - My research = obstacles, anxieties and frustration but also balanced with excitement and satisfaction when each chapter is written. #phdchat

@mark_carrigan - @weeladybird1981 think about what you'll be like AFTER you've submitted though :) #phdchat

@Eingang - @ICTwitz #phdchat I do my cycling on my exercise bike at home. I am reluctant to leave my house at all & you guys think you have troubles!

@JaneDavis13 - @lizith @emmaburnettx @kesloane date night is such a good idea! It's great to spend time away from it all #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @allonsdanser @Lemness - my 'day off' from research is also when good ideas occur. Why is that?? :) #phdchat

@kesloane - @lizith @EmmaBurnettx social time away helped me relax into my project. It's been really helpful. #phdchat

@yukrla - @lizgloyn I find the life of a doctoral researcher on the verge of sanity at some points #phdchat

@srossmktg - @profkrg I know you guys in the midwest run slow, but... ;) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @srossmktg best investment you will make. Couldn't live without mine! #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg you're going to get it, mister! #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @profkrg it's on now .. Come and join us. It's about Life as a doctoral student #phdchat

@SueFolley - @webnemesis I'm exactly the same!! Twitter can be a distraction too - I am not good at switching it off! :) #phdchat

@Eingang - @ICTwitz #phdchat My old Palm Targus Stowaway bluetooth keyboard works with my iPad, but I do most of my writing on laptop.

@lizith - @NSRiazat @allonsdanser @lemness It's when you've given your mind some space to think :) #phdchat

@profkrg - Life as a doctoral student = hot mess. #phdchat

@srossmktg - @NSRiazat Easy, ego replenishment. @allonsdanser @Lemness #phdchat

@mark_carrigan - @kesloane @weeladybird1981 @EmmaBurnettx i find it hard to motivate myself to do that though. often don't enjoy them very much #phdchat

@ekvraga - @Lemness @srossmktg I want an e-reader to get away from computer screen. But none do what I want! http://t.co/rlIXxkfO #phdchat

@SueFolley - @yukrla @lizgloyn agreed :))) #phdchat

@profkrg - The more you know, the more you recognize what you do not know. #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @allonsdanser yes it's so nice that way-you can see you're not the only one going through it! #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @Eingang :-( Was worried you went out on your bike, whilst reading!!! #phdchat

@srossmktg - Or late to #phdchat. Probably too much Midwestern wine. RT @profkrg: Life as a doctoral student = hot mess. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @JaneDavis13 @lizith @kesloane Must try harder with that. I'm usually too knackered! #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - I'm in. #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg sadly, no :( #wineless #phdchat

@yukrla - why hot? #phdchat @profkrg

@NSRiazat - @yukrla @profkrg - great to see you on #phdchat

@profkrg - @yukrla LOL. Because that's how the saying goes :) #phdchat

@lizith - @webnemesis do you need to set some new deadlines so you don't feel guilty? #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @SueFolley Procrastination? Washing up! Dusting! Ironing! All seem a good idea when it's time to crack on with some writing #phdchat

@profkrg - Did you guys make any progress on research this week? #phdchat #behonest

@srossmktg - @ekvraga @lemness Colleague uses ipad with iAnnotate. I found similar Droid app (Repligo). And I'd go for 10" (else why bother?). #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @EmmaBurnettx @lizith @kesloane that's why we try and book. It's harder to just forget the opportunity. Get tickets, book a table #phdchat

@jgmac1106 - @ICTwitz I have been trying to get into @evernote but don't see the upside to GDocs. #Mendeley has been my true savior #phdchat

@yukrla - great to be on :) #phdchat @NSRiazat

@NSRiazat - @misaimedBrain: @NSRiazat #phdchat When told about the exercise, I said I could solve every PhD problem I ever had, if I had a plank (LOL!)

@SueFolley - @ICTwitz yes all of us on #phdchat have procrastination down to a fine art - if only we could get a phd in that :)))

@vanillacaramel - Can't believe so many people in this #phdchat! We're not alone

@lizith - @JaneDavis13 @emmaburnettx @kesloane definitely - has to be proper date or doesn't happen #phdchat

@Lemness - @srossmktg great insight. I'm going to check out that app. Thanks. #phdchat

@srossmktg - @profkrg Yes maam. #phdchat

@jonnymccormick - #phdchat sorry I'm late. What are we talking about?

@mark_carrigan - @SueFolley @ICTwitz agree!!! #phdchat

@profkrg - @SueFolley I thought I was getting a PhD in procrastination! #phdchat

@TallMIGirl - Enjoyed the chat so far, but now I need to head to the airport! Hopefully, I'll be able to join again soon! #PhDchat

@srossmktg - @NSRiazat @ICTwitz what's a plank? #phdchat

@lizith - @webnemesis so review them and build in slippage - be kind to yourself! #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg overachiever! #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @profkrg I did, I did! I have an article manuscript ready to go and everything! Tho noticed today I'd mucked up page numbers... #phdchat

@yukrla - I have an android tablet and I think it's gone crazy #phdchat @srossmktg

@Eingang - @srossmktg @ekvraga @lemness #phdchat I use iPad with PDFExpert to annotate all kinds of research PDFs all the time. Didn't like iAnnotate.

@srossmktg - @profkrg @SueFolley No, thats my senior classmate. Seriously. Consumer procrastination. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @profkrg I've managed to perfect the skill of procrastination - should at least be a certificate or medal for that!!! #phdchat

@profkrg - @lizgloyn Excellent! Well done, friend! #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @profkrg - coded 2 participant interviews and read a couple of articles. #phdchat #behonest

@EmmaBurnettx - @TallMIGirl speak soon :) #phdchat

@Lemness - We have to schedule it. RT @lizith: @NSRiazat @allonsdanser @Lemness It's when you've given your mind some space to think :) #phdchat

@profkrg - What is that? RT @srossmktg: @SueFolley No, thats my senior classmate. Seriously. Consumer procrastination. #phdchat

@kesloane - @profkrg Yes! Returned to cull old seminar papers to put together lit review. Productive + felt good. "I've read/written all that?" #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @vanillacaramel - Great to see you Lesley #phdchat

@Lemness - @jonnymccormick - @srossktg was talking about iAnnotate. #phdchat

@profkrg - @NSRiazat that's not too shabby for a Wednesday. Good job! #phdchat

@lizith - @webnemesis I just have to switch off all distractions when I need to write or think or read #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @profkrg I wasn't half cross this morning when I realised I couldn't redo and print out at work: font issues mean printing from PDF #phdchat

@Lemness - @eingang I have PDFExpert myself. Haven't tried iAnnotate. #phdchat

@profkrg - @kesloane Excellent job! #phdchat

@mark_carrigan - @yukrla how do you mean? #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @SueFolley Maybe we should all set up own university, and award ourselves the PhD in procrastinating! #phdchat Mind you, we'd never do it!

@ekvraga - @Eingang @srossmktg @lemness #phdchat I'll have to check them out for computer...still holding out for e-ink display with PDF commenting!

@srossmktg - iAnnotate for iPad, RepliGo for droid. RT @jonnymccormick: @Lemness @srossmktg what app? #phdchat

@profkrg - Ditto. RT @lizith: @webnemesis I just have to switch off all distractions when I need to write or think or read #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - wowsers #phdchat is fairly fast and furious tonight. #tryingtokeepup

@NSRiazat - @lizith @allonsdanser @lemness - must be Liz. All good ideas come when I am too busy to write them down. #phdchat

@srossmktg - @ekvraga That would be TOTALLY awesome. But I don't think it's going to be around for quite a while. Even Nook wasnt close. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @lizith @webnemesis completely agree otherwise you get nowhere #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @jgmac1106 Wasn't able to get to grips with Mendeley #phdchat Each to their own!

@SueFolley - @ICTwitz - true - if it we were supposed to do it, it would lose attraction :) @ #phdchat

@yukrla - spontaneously turns on 'calibrate' app and closes the oliveoffice when I want to read a doc.considering a kindle. #phdchat@mark_carrigan

@srossmktg - @profkrg Yes, I am an overachiever. An overachieving underachiever. #phdchat

@profkrg - Have you ever hired someone to do transcription? #phdchat

@NSRiazat - "@weeladybird1981: wowsers #phdchat is fairly fast and furious tonight. #tryingtokeepup" - try Twitterfall app :)

@srossmktg - @profkrg @SueFolley Classmate's diss is on consumer procrastination. Understanding it in context of purchase behaviors. #phdchat

@lizith - @webnemesis ok reschedule the lit review and stick to timetable for chapter - & check whether really need all that reading #phdchat

@yukrla - yes! they were super fast..missed some names of places but the rest was good #phdchat @profkrg

@dr_tindall - I did. It was worth every penny & it was a lot of pennies. RT @profkrg: Have you ever hired someone to do transcription? #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg why consumers wait to make purchases? #phdchat

@ICTwitz - @srossmktg Downloaded neu.Annotate for iPad the other day. Yet to really explore with readings #phdchat

@srossmktg - @NSRiazat @weeladybird1981 or TweetChat. #phdchat

@yukrla - @profkrg one of the best decisions i made in may :) #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @webnemesis @lizith that's a lot of PDFs! #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - Being in full time work, I really enjoy the opportunity of having blocks of time to do writing. That's when I see real progress. #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @profkrg #phdchat Two of my friends hired transcription service. I did my own. My friends were smarter.

@srossmktg - @profkrg Yes, delayed purchase intent. #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @profkrg Yes, it was wonderful! #phdchat. I had to edit it a bit while listening to the tapes, but it is great to have it all done #phdchat

@profkrg - @yukrla @dr_tindall Did you use a service or a freelancer (aka: student)? #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @profkrg - great stuff!! Not too bad for a Wednesday eh? #phdchat

@yukrla - I would like that #phdchat @ICTwitz @SueFolley @NSRiazat

@lizith - @webnemesis email must go off - it can wait - checking stuff can wait too (make note for later) it really is poss to switch off #phdchat

@jonnymccormick - @weeladybird1981: wowsers #phdchat is fairly fast and furious tonight. #tryingtokeepup // agreed.

@EmmaBurnettx - @MisaimedBrain @profkrg much prefer doing my own - you really get to know your data #phdchat

@SueFolley - @profkrg No done all my own transcription - it takes ages but you do think things through as you transcribe... #phdchat

@profkrg - Transcribing is really slowing a study down. It's difficult to hear and it takes forever! I have like 20 more interviews. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @srossmktg interesting stuff.... #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg you make everything sound so fancy. I'm like "you mean why they don't buy stuff?" LOL. ;) #phdchat

@jonnymccormick - #phdchat does anyone here not use bibliographic software?

@srossmktg - @profkrg @yukrla @dr_tindall Advisor said GMR. Worth it. And you'll go through data SO much yourself anyway, you'll "own" it. #phdchat

@yukrla - i think it is a bussiness set up by a freelancer...#phdchat @profkrg

@EmmaBurnettx - @SueFolley definitely with you on that one #phdchat

@lizith - @profkrg how many interviews and how long? I learned a lot about my data while transcribing #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @ICTwitz I use iannotate and recently purchased a Bamboo stylus pen. Now it's really easy to annotate pdfs. #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @EmmaBurnettx I like to get out into the countryside, if possible, and be totally offline. Get so much more done. #phdchat

@profkrg - This is true, but I'm saturated. RT @EmmaBurnettx: @MisaimedBrain much prefer doing my own - you really get to know your data #phdchat

@srossmktg - @profkrg That's how we Easterners roll. Everything fancy. ;) #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @jonnymccormick I don't! Tried to get into Mendeley but it just didn't happen. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx ditto! I'm too tired after work in an evening to think straight - have to work at weekends :( #phdchat

@lizith - @webnemesis maybe someone here would do virtual #shutupandwrite with you #phdchat

@ekvraga - @jonnymccormick I don't - never found one I liked & start-up costs so high! But still hoping to find one someday...#phdchat

@NSRiazat - @profkrg @dr-tindall - not tried paid transcription. Found I engaged better with data when transcribing it myself #phdchat

@JaneDavis13 - @vanillacaramel @emmaburnettx yes .. Campsites are great for that! #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @vanillacaramel oh yes - very peaceful and relaxing. A productive environment :) #phdchat

@lizgloyn - @vanillacaramel I think that being off-line is one of my favourite things in the world at the moment. #phdchat #illicitpleasures

@Eingang - #phdchat I can't actually see any comments from @webnemesis. They have a protected stream, so they're not really participating fully. ):

@vanillacaramel - @jonnymccormick I use refworks. #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @jonnymccormick I've tried several. I like zotero best. #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat I do agree transcription makes you closer to data. It's still a bother! :)

@profkrg - @allonsdanser LOVE the Bamboo stylus pen. So worth the price. #phdchat

@kesloane - @profkrg @EmmaBurnettx @MisaimedBrain If the transcription must also be coded...I'd hire someone to transcribe. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @SueFolley trackies, glass wine and feet up with iPad is as far as I get at weekend in the evenings! #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - @jonnymccormick err probably a minority of one but me! :) #phdchat

@yukrla - what is that pen? #phdchat @profkrg

@lizith - @profkrg how long is each interview - can you selectively transcribe most important content? #phdchat

@srossmktg - @MisaimedBrain @EmmaBurnettx I feel like self-transcription is dependent on personal philosophy to need to be attached to data. #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg we're to "slow" for that down here in the south. :) #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx ooh me too - I meant in the weekend day time. My weekend evenings are dedicated to wine-drinking :)) #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @profkrg takes over an hour for every 10-15 mins of voice for me to transcribe manually from dictaphone #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @profkrg Agree! $30 and I can also use it to sketchnote and doodle while thinking. That helps me to think. #phdchat

@profkrg - What? RT @lizith: @webnemesis maybe someone here would do virtual #shutupandwrite with you #phdchat

@lizith - @webnemesis someone was saying they couldn't see your tweets - are you protecting them in some way? #phdchat

@ICTwitz - Sorry #phdchat folks, but I am going to have to go as Osfoora on iPad is being daft with searches :-( Great chatting, and catch you soon :)

@EmmaBurnettx - @MisaimedBrain I also end up raging myself for not picking up on something in focus group. Definitely makes you better interviewer #phdchat

@srossmktg - @profkrg Guess all your purchases are procrastinated... ;) #phdchat

@lizith - @profkrg @webnemesis http://t.co/Qqg6B3Tz #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @EmmaBurnettx Except for strange nieghbours firing shots in to the night. #phdchat. And the veld fire that raged the last time I was there

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx bye! :) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @SueFolley me too! #phdchat

@profkrg - I feel close. RT @MisaimedBrain: @EmmaBurnettx #phdchat I do agree transcription makes you closer to data. It's still a bother! :)

@webnemesis - @Eingang added you :) @lizith yes, saw done:) #phdchat

@profkrg - Transcribing 30+ interviews about trauma is pretty heavy too. #phdchat

@jonnymccormick - @lizith: @profkrg how long is each interview - can you selectively transcribe most important content? #phdchat//I'd like to know also...

@EmmaBurnettx - @vanillacaramel sounds risky!! #phdchat

@profkrg - It's for using on a touch screen. I use mine on my iPad and sometimes my iPhone. RT @yukrla: what is that pen? #phdchat @profkrg

@SueFolley - @profkrg I bet it is! At least I only had 17 interviews and not about anything so heavy going! #phdchat

@yukrla - wow, it must be really hard...what are you working on? #phdchat @profkrg

@profkrg - @lizith they range from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. #phdchat

@profkrg - @SueFolley that's my girl :) #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @profkrg Depends how fast you type. I was having to stop the tape and go back 6/7 times. Not helpful. #phdchat

@yukrla - thanks :) #phdchat @profkrg

@jonnymccormick - #phdchat does anyone know of any transcribing software?

@andycoverdale - @sarahthesheepu why not just use something like http://t.co/xC5zc8kI - annotate links for context. One URL. No USBs/paper/fuss #phdchat

@profkrg - @allonsdanser it writes better on iPad than other stylus pens because of how it's weighted. #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @profkrg - that is a lot of transcription. My participant interview workload was less than 30. #phdchat

@lizith - @profkrg that's a lot of transcribing - I had 26 of about 1 - 1.3 hour each (a couple much longer) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @jonnymccormick @lizith: @profkrg some do say you don't have to transcribe all, esp if more experienced.. #phdchat

@webnemesis - @SueFolley focused on writing, reading or all together? :) maybe #shutupandwrite sessions would help? see @lizith 's post on that #phdchat

@SueFolley - @profkrg lol - thanks :) #phdchat

@lizith - @EmmaBurnettx @jonnymccormick @profkrg also depends on your analysis methodology - can always go back and transcribe gaps later #phdchat

@SueFolley - @webnemesis yes we have planned our first #shutupandwrite session for next week - looking forward to it! #phdchat

@webnemesis - @profkrg are you using a software for transcribing or "pen and paper"? i plan 20 interviews in Nov #phdchat

@Eingang - @jonnymccormick #phdchat I use Transcriva on the Mac for transcription. Lots of people use free x-platform Express Scribe.

@SueFolley - @profkrg lol - I do my best :)) #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @webnemesis @SueFolley @lizith What is #shutupandwrite? #phdchat

@profkrg - @yukrla emotional affect of journalists who witnessed executions last year. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @webnemesis @SueFolley are the #shutupandwrite sessions good? Never participated #phdchat

@santinoregilme - Students Walk Out of Classes in Sympathy With Wall Street Protesters http://t.co/JPmEOj7q #phdchat #highered #OccupyWallStreet #politics

@lizith - @vanillacaramel @webnemesis @suefolley see http://t.co/Qqg6B3Tz for example #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx that will be my first one next week - so will let you know :) #shutupandwrite #phdchat

@profkrg - @vanillacaramel it takes me about 1.5 hours (maybe a bit less) to transcribe and proof a 45 minute interview. #phdchat

@yukrla - I think sessions would help too..however, I find that doing one thing very intensely can be counterproductive...#phdchat @webnemesis

@allonsdanser - @profkrg iPad & Bamboo have been great investments for me. I get lots done with them. Do u use iAnnotate? #phdchat

@SueFolley - @vanillacaramel - @lizith has found the link for #shutupandwrite #phdchat

@yukrla - What is it? RT @SueFolley: @webnemesis yes we have planned our first #shutupandwrite session for next week - looking forward to it! #phdchat

@profkrg - I tried dragon dictation. It sucks. RT @jonnymccormick: #phdchat does anyone know of any transcribing software?

@lizith - @EmmaBurnettx @webnemesis @suefolley this was how it went when I tried it http://t.co/Qqg6B3Tz #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @SueFolley look forward to hearing that :) #phdchat

@srossmktg - @allonsdanser Wow, deja vu. I feel like I just had the iAnnotate conversation. #phdchat

@profkrg - @NSRiazat My chair actually suggested that I consider hiring it done. It's not even for my dissertation. #phdchat

@webnemesis - @EmmaBurnettx me too.And would like to as in 20 days have to write this book chapter 4 publisher. Did you set up smthg @SueFolley ? #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @profkrg #phdchat Wow. You're a quick transcriber!

@jonnymccormick - @profkrg ohh dear. That's a damning indictment. #phdchat

@lizith - not claiming to be originator of #shutupandwrite - got the idea from @thesiswhisperer #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @profkrg @srossmktg South? Where? #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - Didn't like it either! RT @profkrg I tried dragon dictation. It sucks @jonnymccormick #phdchat

@webnemesis - @yukrla @SueFolley i'm in starting next Monday. let me know about the time #shutupandwrite @EmmaBurnettx is interested too #phdchat

@SueFolley - @webnemesis a group of us doing phds are getting together at work in the library and bringing cake for the breaks :) #phdchat

@yukrla - Let me know what and when please? #phdchat @webnemesis

@allonsdanser - @lizith Right! I became so involved in reading that I forgot to give myself space/time for reflection. Reflection is essential! #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @SueFolley Cake?? Now I'm interested ;) #phdchat

@lizith - @SueFolley @webnemesis are you allowed to eat cake in your library - makes note to discuss with our library bods #phdchat

@jonnymccormick - @profkrg @lizith @emmaburnettx same here...seems a little ethically questionable... #phdchat

@yukrla - o! sounds good! #phdchat @SueFolley

@ekvraga - Me too! Cake makes everything better...RT @EmmaBurnettx: @SueFolley Cake?? Now I'm interested ;) #phdchat

@profkrg - @webnemesis I'm using Transcriva. http://bit.ly/3iAt #phdchat

@webnemesis - @vanillacaramel @SueFolley @lizith http://t.co/co2vfljI You can join us starting Monday @yukrla too #phdchat

@srossmktg - @EmmaBurnettx @SueFolley Booking a flight... #phdchat

@profkrg - @allonsdanser I haven't used iAnnotate. Tell me more, please. #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @profkrg @yukrla Wow, interesting. My project is also about journalists. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @lizith lol - well we are in a section just for postgrad researchers - it has a coffee machine too :)) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - Lol! RT @srossmktg: @EmmaBurnettx @SueFolley Booking a flight... #phdchat

@NSRiazat - 8.30pm folks - brings us to the end of another #phdchat :)

@webnemesis - @SueFolley that is nice:) I'm working from my "home" office, in hermit writing mode #phdchat thats why #shutupandwrite online may help

@jonnymccormick - Not a lot of love out there for dragon dictation. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @srossmktg fab - I will warn everyone to bring more cake :) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - Big part of mine is too!! RT @vanillacaramel: @profkrg @yukrla Wow, interesting. My project is also about journalists. #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg are you being a smartie? Did we miss the iAnnotate conversation? #phdchat

@lizith - @SueFolley that is interesting - we have got such a place in sussex, but so far have to follow library rule - no coffee/cake #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @NSRiazat gosh - quickest hour of the day!! #phdchat

@srossmktg - @profkrg Yes and yes. #phdchat

@kesloane - @NSRiazat brings us to the end of another #phdchat :) /// great, as ever! Thanks all!

@Eingang - @SueFolley @lizith #phdchat Doesn't the @sussexreshive allow food? Must admit I haven't been there.

@profkrg - @MisaimedBrain I learned to type quickly as a professional journalists :) #phdchat

@webnemesis - @lizith @SueFolley I cannot start ANY #diss related work without a dark chocolate and/or coffee/tea #phdchat. Dark chocolate - must

@lizith - @SueFolley I'm one of the doctoral researchers resp for running activities in the sussex equiv. #phdchat

@marisollebron - Just spent 2 days putting together FOIA request. So tedious. Makes me feel like i didn't do much work. #gradgrind #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @webnemesis @SueFolley @lizith @yukrla What time? #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @webnemesis @andycoverdale @Lemness @readywriting @chronicle @TallMIGirl @mark_carrigan - thanks for valued contribution to #phdchat tonight

@srossmktg - You guys in England seem to have all the fun... #phdchat

@jonnymccormick - #phdchat thanks everybody. See you all next week.

@profkrg - @jonnymccormick not too professional, I guess. It wasn't accurate. At all. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @lizith ours is a separate room but adjoining the library called the Convivium. Meant as a social space as well as for study #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @NSRiazat It's the reflection time. Room to ponder & fuse thoughts that turn into good ideas. #phdchat

@yukrla - very interesting :) @profkrg @vanillacaramel #phdchat

@webnemesis - @yukrla it is online free gatherings, #shutupandwrite no platform I think, right @lizith? #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - You should rebel!! @Eingang @SueFolley @lizith #phdchat

@lizith - @Eingang @suefolley @sussexreshive not at moment - but I'm making notes - which uni libraries allow cake/coffee in PG areas? #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @profkrg #phdchat I can type quickly, but often have to replay sections to make them out.

@profkrg - @vanillacaramel O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A! #Boomer #Sooner #phdchat

@yukrla - I use it and it works really well but you have to take the time to train the program to your voice...#phdchat @jonnymccormick

@EmmaBurnettx - @NSRiazat thank you for organising and thanks to everyone for an excellent discussion as always! #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @EmmaBurnettx @profkrg @yukrla Are we all doing journ projects? #phdchat

@lizith - @SueFolley sounds similar - ours is in library but separate and for collaboration and communication - library hive #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @srossmktg Haha. I may have gotten the idea to use it from you. It's a very good product. Also like Skim for Macbook #phdchat

@profkrg - Wait, do a bunch of you go to school together? #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @ICTwitz @lizgloyn @aeratcliffe @Eingang @DrLucyRobinson @ai1sa @OTEllenN @JaneDavis13 - thanks for valued contribution to #phdchat tonight

@yukrla - ONLINE CAKE! #phdchat @webnemesis

@webnemesis - @NSRiazat thank you for hosting another inspirational #phdchat Have a good and productive week!

@EmmaBurnettx - @MisaimedBrain @profkrg and don't you just hate the way you sound on tape?!! #phdchat

@yukrla - @lizith @suefolley #phdchat@webnemesis Agree, dark chocolate rocks

@EmmaBurnettx - Would be good to hear what you're doing? @vanillacaramel: @EmmaBurnettx @profkrg @yukrla #phdchat

@lizith - Thanks as ever to @NSRiazat - this evening has flown by #phdchat

@profkrg - @vanillacaramel what are you doing? #phdchat

@profkrg - @SueFolley what kind of 5-star school are you attending? LOL. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @webnemesis I love dark chocolate too! it is the best :) #diss #phdchat

@weeladybird1981 - i'm knackered after that! cheers everyone. :) #phdchat

@srossmktg - @allonsdanser Not an Apple person. ;) #phdchat

@profkrg - Nooooooooooo! RT @NSRiazat: 8.30pm folks - brings us to the end of another #phdchat :)

@yukrla - Goodbye everybody, must go back to my empirical chapters! Any advice on empiricals welcome!! see you next week. #phdchat @NSRiazat

@lizith - @SueFolley sounds very much the same except we have no coffee machines :( won't even let us have water dispenser! #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @allonsdanser @SueFolley @sarahthesheepu @kesloane @merry30 @salma_patel @profkrg - thanks for valued contribution to #phdchat tonight

@MisaimedBrain - @EmmaBurnettx @profkrg #phdchat Yes, hate the way I sound. I sound about 12. Rrrrr.

@SueFolley - @lizith I am not sure they actually allow cake in ours - I just haven't seen any signs saying no cake! :) #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - Definitely interested @webnemesis @SueFolley #shutupandwrite @vanillacaramel #phdchat

@MisaimedBrain - @NSRiazat Thanks for another great #phdchat session!

@lizith - @SueFolley no sign means it's allowed - yeah #phdchat

@SueFolley - @profkrg lol - they don't supply the cake - we will bring it - and the coffee machine is one where you pay! #phdchat

@webnemesis - / @lizith and others - thank you so much for effective and excellent discussion on #phdchat topic. Have a nice working week!

@allonsdanser - @yukrla I love your profile icon! I feel like that some days. #phdchat

@profkrg - @srossmktg hey, I've got other people on this new fangled Internet too, you know ;) What did you say about iAnnotate? #phdchat

@srossmktg - @SueFolley I believe we quants call that "falsification." #phdchat

@SueFolley - @lizith we have a water thingy as well... #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @EmmaBurnettx @profkrg @yukrla I look at the legacy and newsroom culture of a black readership paper in South Africa #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @MisaimedBrain Lol!! I sound far too posh on audio! #phdchat

@SueFolley - @NSRiazat thanks - wow that hour has flown by!! #phdchat

@srossmktg - Wait what? #honoured RT @profkrg: RT @SueFolley: How did @srossmktg become the brother we pick on? #phdchat

@profkrg - @marisollebron two days on a FOIA request? #phdchat

@lizith - @SueFolley remind me which uni that is #phdchat

@allonsdanser - @srossmktg I understand. Do you use a pdf annotation product? #phdchat

@webnemesis - @EmmaBurnettx @SueFolley @vanillacaramel adding @yukarla for #shutupandwrite sessions (if interested) #phdchat I can do anytime start.Monday

@NSRiazat - @yukrla @mapetite @jgmac1106 @vanillacaramel @jonnymccormick @santinoregilme - thanks for valued contribution to #phdchat tonight

@allonsdanser - @NSRiazat It is a good topic. Thank you for hosting. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @srossmktg lol :) #phdchat

@srossmktg - @ICTwitz I'm a not Apple person. But my colleague uses it for his own "system." Works for him. #phdchat

@NSRiazat - @dr_tindall - thanks for valued contribution to #phdchat tonight.

@SueFolley - @lizith Uni of Huddersfield :) #phdchat

@srossmktg - @allonsdanser I don't have a tab. I'd like one. Still on laptop. But I'm a printed person, so I'd need a big tab to annotate. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - Bet that's been fascinating! @vanillacaramel @profkrg @yukrla #phdchat

@profkrg - @MisaimedBrain The audio level is WAY slowing me down. But you just gave me a great idea to just edit it in Final Cut! #duh #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @NSRiazat @yukrla @mapetite @jgmac1106 @jonnymccormick @santinoregilme Thanks Nasima. Much appreciated. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @lizith don't go getting cake disallowed now though will you? :))) #phdchat

@lizith - @SueFolley maybe what Huddersfield can do today, Sussex can do tomorrow :) #phdchat

@profkrg - @yukrla: @jonnymccormick but that doesn't work for transcription. #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - I did a media coverage analysis of an outbreak then interviewed journalists/media professionals @vanillacaramel @profkrg @yukrla #phdchat

@profkrg - @allonsdanser Skim? #phdchat

@lizith - @SueFolley definitely not - cake, chocolate, coffee are all essentials - plus the odd glass of red #phdchat

@profkrg - @NSRiazat Thank you so much for organizing another #fabulous #phdchat!

@vanillacaramel - @EmmaBurnettx @profkrg @yukrla It is. Love it. Just don't like the looming deadlines. What's your topic? #phdchat

@vanillacaramel - @webnemesis @EmmaBurnettx @SueFolley @yukarla Same time Monday? #phdchat

@EmmaBurnettx - @webnemesis @suefolley @vanillacaramel @yukarla what does #shutupandwrite involve? Monday pm is good for me. supervision am. #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx it involves you all shutting up and focusing on writing for a time period, then having a break to chat #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx Can be done f2f - like I am doing next week with real live people and #cake or virtually agreeing to chat via twitter #phdchat

@AMC_83 - So true@ai1sa: does a phd candidate have a life - not in my case. Does the phd have a life of its own- absolutely, Its taken mine #phdchat

@lizith - Think that is me for this evening - a bit of light reading and appropriate beverage required! #phdchat

@SueFolley - @EmmaBurnettx @webnemesis @vanillacaramel @yukarla I can't do Monday as working - but you guys go ahead #shutupandwrite #phdchat

@lizith - This time I really am going - I need my bed! #phdchat
