    Since a lot of ppl here in Digital Point know quite a bit of information of GOOGLE and its practices. Whether it be for adwords, adsense, search and so on and so forth.

    Information is such a powerful and useful tool when it comes to aggregating data for the better of your business or corporation and in this case HEALTH.

    But what are your thoughts about the Google health "beta" project!

    http://google.com/health


    List your pros and cons on this thread!


    Personally I am not sure how this will go over with the internet generation now? I am definitely all for better health care but I cringe at the thought of all of my business being out for open consumption. How do we move past the uneasy feeling of 3rd party collection of personal info?

    Thanks :)

    Google Health puts you in charge of your health information. It's safe, secure, and free.

    * Organize your health information all in one place
    * Gather your medical records from doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies
    * Keep your doctors up to date about your health
    * Be more informed about important health issues

    ----------------
    It's nothing about our webmasters

    Google Adsense knows my bank account.
    Google AdWords knows my credit card.
    Google toolbar knows what i like to visit on the internet.
    Google Analytics knows all about my website traffic.
    Google Desktop knows what's on my PC.
    Google Docs knows my budget spreadsheet.
    Google mail knows who is writing me and what.
    Now Google health wants to know my medical records.
    What they will want to know next? My will?

    Think of it guys....
