Web2.0 in Medicine – are we there yet ?? Thoughts about web based Medical ware!!

Are We There Yet ?!! , that`s Q. i planned to answer the last post.. to prefer to later and test some more Web Based Medical softwareand medical web sites … almost all what i test didn`t adopt Web2.0technologies and features , which including simplicty (in Development -Design – and use ) as well as Web 2.0 Technologies as Ajax .. many ofthat software basic .. and focused on the concept it`s DB application(EMR – EHR) ..

lake of communication i notice with some (I meanbetween the for the patient and the doctors ) ….some of EMR softwaresdidn`t get Calenders ….. including more communication details as (Emails – Skype – IMs accounts ) i mean Web Communication features ….

For Developers it`s quiet hazy for editing especially or developingmodules , or re-architecture the system … ( I means for open source systems )

Medical Web sites : many of old respective medical search engines …didn`t adopt the Web2.0 features yet .. but here we have 2 featuredprojects : healthline.com , healia.com -as medical / health care search engines

So.. that`s the Main Q .: are we there yet ? yas and no

• Yas ..

1. We use blogs and it`s quiet Web 2.0 publishing system.
2. Now Wikis .. at WikiPedia ….and Wetpaint Wiki
3. Search Engines

Web2.0 in Medicine

Web2.0 Revelation all over the Internet including featured useful project , we all use , but here i want to exclude some points about web2.0 and medicine – health related use .

• what`s web2.0 ?
• web2.0 featured projects – and related medical projects
• Web2.0 Conepts in Medical Informatics Development.

What`s the Web 2.0 ? is web Revelation
, based on new concepts to develop the web sites and treat the Web as
Platform , so now u used some web sites sometimes as desktop
applications , The main new concept is the simplicity , in design , development , information delivery , Web2.0 included many featured projects filed under many sections as (RSS – Podcasts – Weblogs – Wikis – Social bookmarking )

Web2.0 featured projects … adapted web2.0 concepts in developing web based systems make the internet more interactive , more simple to use , that adaptation included in :-

• Social Internet : Social Bookmarking del.icio.us , connotea.org (alot of social bookmarking services available now)
• Social News system : Digg , Newsvine.com
• Desktop like application : Online office (ThickFree Office / gOffice)
• online feeds readers ( Netvibes.com / google reader )
• Podcasts Services – using many Technology to produce podcasts including simple blogs , but what the online podcasts services? odeo.com to subscribe podcasts feeds / Podcasts.net as podcasts directory and podcasts search engine
• Wikis : www.wikipregnancy.com -

What do we need to get out of the Web1.0 for the medical / health informatics related projects ??

• Web2.0
  power is in the simplicity , in design , and development , that`s make
  the projects really handy and easily to update with new features when
  it`s needed
• User Interactivity , that features provided by ajax , adding more interactivity and life to the web page , but is that the main use for ajax ?? (i`ll try to exclude it later another post)
• Simple Notification – RSS feeds , that feature included in many blogs – CMS – Wikis
• Rich Internet application : as Flash / Multimedia / adobe
• Simple search Friendly : remember the ajax elements not search friendly
• ajax Frameworks “alot of ajax frameworks Opensource free” but which is one to use?
• Modularity :- Modularity system allow the developers which use
  the system to add and customize the system according to their needs ,
  that`s could be developer side .. developing extensions – Plugins & addons sometimes make the system more strong and flexible especially if that Modules easy to develop simply
