- Blog opens today
- Basic tools are installed
- Macarena starts writing next week
- Information will be personalized next week
Here are some general guidelines for the new blog. We might expand it to Wiki and some other social networking applications. Macarena did already mention the use of Yahoo Answers. It might be a good idea to add "Answers to the toolbox" within a week or two when we get more questions about the topics we're covering.
The BIOTOUCH communication channel will be moderated by Macarena. Below are some of the areas this blog is going to cover.
- Paper and board
- Biorefineries
- Water
- Food
- Health Care
- A personal diary based on discussions with specialists
- Personalized style
- Global point of view
- Generic presentation
Macarena, Elias and Juha, we'll start with a Skype Conference Call in the beginning of next week. We could chat for 30 to 60 minutes to introduce ourself and to outline the goals for the Biotouch communication channel.

I wish a very good Sunday afternoon to every one!
Modern times - modern challenges: I am working in my summer cottage garden in Petäjävesi and have connected to Internet via mobile connection. It works, no matter the speed here is not 10 G but 60 kilos...
To have a meeting, I would like to have your proposal for date and time to know, when I shall drive to Jyväskylä - an city area with faster network.
It's excellent to have a new forum for discussions about these novel BIOTOUCH alternatives!
WBR,
Juha
Juha, thanks for your comment. Macarena and Olli just left from Loviisa to Lammi [http://www.lammi.fi/] and they will be heading north next week.
We know more about the schedule on Monday. We're probably driving to Sotkamo with Irja as well.
We suggest some times early next week. Elias also told that he will be traveling during the first week in June. But we will find a time that fits all.

The BIOTOUCH approach means practical generation of technologies which will implement new microbiological thinking in controlling bioprocesses. Whatever our actual size is or will be, we have to shrinken our minds into the microscale and nanoscale of the microbes and their molecules. Therefore it is going to be an interesting journey into these tiny droplets of microbe containing process fluids. Bon voyage!
BIOTOUCH is going to be the forum for new initiatives for improving our undertanding on the ways, how micro-organisms could be exploited the best for the benefit of us all. This matter is particularly relevant during these days of increasing petroleum (and food) prices, and search for REALLY ecological means to generate wealth, fight the diseases, and increase human well-being.
Thanks Elias, we established the Biotouch channel today. The basic tools have been installed.
The next phase is to focus on the content creation. Some guidelines have been discussed with Macarena during the weekend and the work starts next week.
Hello everybody!
YAHOO Answers is familiar also to me. It can be an alternative route to publish ideas by asking and answering.
Some more detailed facts about PMEU can be added by me, if everybody accept it. You can already find short texts about its use in paper industry microbiology in my blog (industrymicrobiologist@blogspot.com).
WBR,
Juha
Juha, you took up the PMEU (portable microbe enrichment unit), which was developed by my company Finnoflag Oy some 8 years ago on the basis of extensive project work on microbe sampling and culturing. Some basic information can be found from the company website www.finnoflag.com the applications of its usage be continuously sophisticated aa the time. It is an excellent possibility to introduce your extensive background using this device. With yourself, Helge and other coworkers we have been looking for strategies to find new applications for PMEU and BIOTOUCH in the wood industry applications.
Throughout the years we have applied PMEU successfully in many fields, such as food microbiology, hygiene control, clinical microbiology, environmental monitoring, agriculture, pharmaceutical research etc.
Best greetings, Elias
Macarena, Elias and Juha, I think this blog becomes a great communication tool for Biotouch. It's a great idea to take start and open discussion about PMEU applications.
Macarena moved to Oulu yesterday and well be on board today. Let's see if we get a chance to Skype or chat when she gets connected.
She is reading the Bascamp content to find out new postings for the blog.
Elias and Juha, you also have the status as co-writers and you can also start new posts.
The more topics we create and network, adds to the wisdom of the crowd.

Hello, Macarena, Helge and Elias!
I am sure that we can have a great benefit from these blog contacts.
I will stay in Jyväskylä during working hours (until 17:00) today and tomorrow. We have unfortunately replacement construction work for net cables in our house just now, and I am therefore depending on my wireless net contact with 7 mega. It is much slower than my ordinary 100 megas, but I think that we can still try to have a meeting on this week.
Please infrom me when I have to be in net. You can call me in my mobile or leave a phone message.
Welcome to Finland, Macarena! Wish you like your visit here!
WBR,
Juha
