Hey everyone, it has been a little while since the last rounds of additions to the NSG but I have recently finished adding several new sections to the Guide. There will be an hard update coming soon. This means that I am going to recompile the currently database and send it out as an update to all devices. This is so that will all the new content added, that the app will not have to contact the server each time it is opened to get the new info.

I am very excited about the new content. Some of the new additions in this round is:

I have received some suggestions to have this done native for the iPad. I have not done this yet as I did not know how many people would use this. Now that the iPad is becoming more more prevelent in medical use I thought I would test the waters to see if anyone would be interested in having an iPad version as well.
Let me know your thoughts.

If so, please use this link here and send me any recommendations. Or use the comment section below!
