Morgan discusses her first impressions of the iPad, including its lack of Flash, the ability to transfer applications from the iPhone/iPod, and its utility as a PDF book reader.

Dead serious grant proposals = not how to write a grant – Meta Morgan TV

You sit down with palms sweaty against the keyboard, ready to write your next grant proposal to get your Big Idea (™) funded. You are dead serious and you let your reviewers know it, as you spew forth a stream of endless facts and figures about the wonderful work you do and will do. This is how to write a grant, right? You know that your proposal is very impressive, and therefore agencies like the NIH, NSF, and DOE will clamor to fund it, right? Morgan shatters your illusions in this episode of Meta Morgan TV.
