Read Write Web is one of my favourite sites on the net and a must read among my RSS feeds, so the fact they the good folks over there have recently taken such an great interest in Healthcare is fantastic news for me and no doubt the greater good. The site generally covers the Web 2.0 world from both a technical and philosophical stand point, but with a great deal of analysis and forward thinking rather than simply reporting the latest tech news.
A few key posts that are worth a read to anyone interested in Healthcare technology and / or Health 2.0:
Health 2.0 Conference Review – I couldn’t make it out to this event this year so I’m grateful for all of the recaps including this one from RWW. Bill Allman from HealthCentral.com guest authors the post and details the major themes of the conference.
Web 2.0 Meets Medicine: Focused on Communication is another great post authored by Richard MacManus that highlights Dr Jay Parkinson who is a new bred of Doctor that is embracing the web and other aspects of Health 2.0 and building a highly successful practice based on these concepts.
Top Health 2.0 Web Apps also by Richard MacManu reviews some of the best of what Health 2.0 has to offer based on interviews with Matthew Holt and Indu Subaiya, two of the organizers of the Health 2.0 Conference.
And finally Health 2.0 – Apps & Trends to Watch which is authored by Josh Rosenthal, founder of Sprigley. Josh too reviews trends he gleamed from the Health 2.0 Conference, however he also highlights an interesting site. ReliefInsite is a site that allows people to map, monitor and analyze their pain.
