Both of those seem unusual to me and I don't see how that method could possibly be beneficial in assessing knowledge.
It's annoying when people are uptight about something that's merely pragmatic. They're talking about social networks people use and know about.
Including Diaspora, a network almost no one has ever heard about, would be completely counter intuitive. Diaspora simply isn't an alternative for the overwhelming majority of users of active social networks.
That's completely ridiculous. Developed countries actively import doctors, going so far as to genuinely trying to lure them by advertising the kinds of salaries they can get.
Countries like Sweden, Norway, Germany, etc. now get significant numbers of their dcotors from abroad. Because their own population doesn't provide enough doctors. Additionally, the foreign ones tend to be cheaper (both because they're paid less but also because you don't need to put them through education).
It's so extreme that in some developing countries of Europe, half the doctors leave for the above-mentioned developed countries.
