Microblogging and Webicina.com

I’m a real fan of Twitter, a microblogging platform where users can post messages containing only 140 characters. Discussions become fast and accurate while sharing information is easier than ever. That’s why we implemented a microblogging platform-like box into the main page so now I can share announcements and news about Webicina even more efficiently.

Everytime you click on the main page, a new message will show up automatically.

Soon, we are going to come up with a free tool for physicians and we also have a big surprise for patients. Stay tuned! In 2009, we must get to people and help them understand why they need guidance in the medical field of web 2.0.

Webicina.com is my service that aims to help medical professionals and patients enter the web 2.0 era by providing e-courses, consulting and personalized packages.

I also made the list of available e-courses public:

Twitter is a microblogging service that allows us to send 140 character-long messages to our followers. There is a huge health 2.0 community out there. Follow me and let’s keep in touch.
