Medicine 2.0 #10 – Medicine and the Second Generation of Internet-based Services

Reading time: 2 minutes

Medicine 2.0I’m hosting this weeks edition of Medicine 2.0, the bi-weekly blog carnival of the best posts pertaining to web 2.0 and medicine.

I’ve published Medicine 2.0 #10 – Medicine and the Second Generation of Internet-based Services over at the Highlight HEALTH Web Directory. I’m working a project there involving web 2.0 and health, fitness and medicine, and I thought it would be a great resource to supplement the other articles being developed. I’ll fill you in on the details of the project soon.

The past two weeks were rich with medicine 2.0-related articles and there are almost 40 blog posts included in this weeks edition. I intentionally kept my comments short so that you can focus on the content of each article. I’ve organized the articles into a number of categories, including:

  • Medicine 2.0, Informatics and Personal Health Records
  • Web 2.0 Tools: Blogs, Video and More
  • Health 2.0
  • Social Health Networking
  • Medical Science, Biotech and Healthcare

I hope you enjoy Medicine 2.0 #10 – Medicine and the Second Generation of Internet-based Services. The next edition of Medicine 2.0 will be hosted at The Health Wisdom Blog on Sunday, October 28th, 2007.
