    Halfway through the 2008 HIMSS conference, the editorial staff at HCI had a chance to refuel and catch up with our editorial board at a breakfast reception held at the Peabody Hotel, right across the street from the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.

    The board members in attendance were each called upon to identify trends that they witnessed at the conference, discuss initiatives that have piqued their interest, and give a brief review of the projects they are currently working on. It also provided a rare opportunity for board members to converse both with each other and with the HCI staff in person.
