Perhaps you could consider to mention that anyone can sign up (but that the service is primarily meant for medical professional/students).

Thank you for your input! You raised some important questions.

1) Webicina is primarily for medical professionals and medical students as I work in the field of web 2.0 and medicine. So I believe I can come up with the most useful tips and suggestions in this topic. Anyway, anyone can sign up and request a service. We’re quite open and ready to find individualized solutions.

2) The wiki format is not the best one if you want to provide a personalized service.

Webicina is not a free service as it offers products to facilitate the work of medical professionals.

I’m currently working on a FAQ page where, I hope, I will make things clear.

Best regards,

Berci

You invite us to sign up for a newsletter. However, at Webcina it says: “If you are a physician who is ready to meet the expectations of e-patients, please sign up!”. So I gather that you have to be a physician to sign up?? (yes, I’m not and I’m jealous)

From your comment on Dean Giustini’s blog I understand that webcina dot com will be (partly) profit-based. I’m sure that it will be worth wile (knowing you and your knowledge of med 2.0), but I wonder why you choose such a format and not a wiki for instance. Or is it because it is rather confidential (the security sign) or you have the only input?

Anyway, I wish you good luck with this new initiative.

Jacqueline
