It’s a great pleasure for me to host Medicine 2.0 again, the blog carnival of web 2.0 and medicine. We, medical bloggers, try to write more and more about web 2.0’s impact on medicine and healthcare. I created some sections mentioning the subfields of this big topic; wikis, blogs, Second Life and many more. That’s the first time I start with my own post, but I made my slideshow public yesterday and I really hope it can summarize the whole field:
Web 2.0 and Second Life:
Frankie Dolan at Frankie Speaking Frankly describes the Health 2.0 term.

People is really sensible to the confidentiality of their medical data. It is critical information.
The danger with Google Health and HealthVault is that somebody in the future crack their security systems.
Also the fact about a private company getting data about your health must concern us.
There is an alternative, http://www.keyose.com/, designed by the doctor that described the first case of Wiiitis, its philosophy is based on total anonymous users. A smart mechanism allows the store of clinical record without asking you any personal data (not even your email).
Confidentiality is in such a way assured.
Dr Bonis!
That is the solution! Fantastic, I’ll write about it soon.

PS: Anyway, I think people wants to steal our money more than our medical data. So if there are bank accounts online, why not to have medical records?
I have visited this site on many an occasion now but this post is the 1st one that I have ever commented on.
Congratulations on such a fine article and site I have found it very helpful and informative – I only wish that there were more out there like this one.
I never leave empty handed, sometimes I may even be a little disappointed that I may not agree with a post or reply that has been made. But hey! that is life and if every one agreed on the same thing what a boring old world we would live in.
Keep up the good work and cheers.
It means I almost understood everything you wrote in French in an other comment of yours.
