Interesting of wikis in health care

WiserWiki (beta)
http://www.wiserwiki.com/

Welcome to WiserWiki!

This website was originally started with content from the "Textbook of
Primary Care Medicine" (3rd Edition) by John Noble - a leading figure in
primary care medicine. It is evolving to become a key source of
authoritative, online medical information.

Like most Wikis on the internet (such as Wikipedia), WiserWiki can be read
by anyone who has internet access. However, unlike most Wikis, WiserWiki
can only be edited by board certified doctors to ensure that the
information is as trustworthy and reliable as possible. Doctors can also
use WiserWiki as a valuable resource to collaborate with each other and to
determine best practices by group consensus. We hope that you enjoy
WiserWiki and find it useful.

As WiserWiki is currently in beta version, we are experimenting with
various ways to make it a better site for you as a user. We hope that
users will continually evolve the site to best suit their needs.
Therefore, we welcome your feedback and suggestions! We have already
received several helpful suggestions and are determining appropriate
changes to make the site more user-friendly. We hope you will be patient
with us during this beta phase. But please check back often as we work to
add additional features and functionality!

Sincerely,
The WiserWiki Team
