In Case You Were Wondering

... Kim has a nice run-down on what I've been up to over at Emergiblog. Yesterday's conference on medical blogging and the impact that social media will play in the future direction of health care was fascinating and well worth the trip. Issues discussed were far-reaching, including the legal issues facing physician and nurse bloggers, what new media means to hospital and the medical device/pharmaceutical industries, and the impact/influence medical bloggers can have upon mainstream media and patient communication.

Everyone had a great time and I would encourage anyone out there with an interest in this venue to join us next year!
