The margin between the two giants of the internet was razor thin. For the week ending March 13, visits to Facebook.com accounted for 7.07% of all Internet traffic in the United States, according to Experian Hitwise, a company that measures online traffic. Visits to search engine Google made up 7.03%. “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind” Facebook now has a recorded total of more than 400 million active users.

Google told the online site that it’s “signed an agreement to acquire Aardvark but don’t have any additional details to report at this time,” although Tech Crunch valued the deal at $50 million. Aardvark has deep ties to Google thanks to founders and former Google executives Max Ventilla and Nathan Stoll. The company had raised $6 million in venture capital funding for the concept, which involves getting answers to questions from social distribution channels.

While the revenue increases are not at the level of 40 percent growth routinely seen in the past, it does reverse a trend of declining revenues which started at the beginning of 2009.

The post announced Google's simple to use search story video creation tool. Google introduced these search stories during the Superbowl with this ad, Parisian Love. All you have to do is type in your searches, pick your music and transfer it over to Youtube. Try it out here.I thought I would test out the tool by creating a quick sample video marketing my health care legal practice featuring my Health Care Law Blog.Also thinking about how marketing staffs for physicians, hospitals and health care organizations might creatively use this tool to create great marketing and public informational pieces.

Circuit ruled that Congress hadn’t given the Federal Communications Commission power to regulate the Internet and the FCC couldn’t bootstrap that power from other authority. It was a rare but welcome affirmation that the rule of law might actually pertain in the regulatory area. But the Open Internet Coalition put out a release containing threat exaggeration to make Dick Cheney blush: “Today’s DC Circuit decision . . . creates a dangerous situation, one where the health and openness of broadband Internet is being held hostage by the behavior of the major telco and cable providers.” That’s right.

But we editors and writers tend to give our first allegiance to content — not least because of our labours to research, commission, select, create and otherwise add value to content, and to do so in a way that informs and stimulates our readers: the people who pay for it. But, unquestionably, conversation can add value to such efforts. Therefore, this week we introduce an online commenting facility that will allow readers to respond directly to any of our content.

The earliest available photos of me were taken when I was five months old, just after I was adopted. I have dark hair and freakishly large eyes that seem far too big for my face, like a Japanese anime character. In fact, they’re so big and dark that the rest of my facial features seem almost invisible. All you see are eyes. “Alien baby!” shrieks my friend Clare, spotting one of the photos on the wall of my grandmother’s house. “Look at your eyes!” She puffs out her cheeks and opens her eyes as wide as possible, and laughs.

It enables patients to scour the Internet for information using their browser. Google is so powerful these days that searches are quite accurate, and indeed we mentioned that doctors could even use Google to help in diagnostic difficulties. There have been a few cases of patients or their relatives successfully using the Internet to make rare diagnoses as in the case of a mother of a girl with a mysterious illness who made the diagnosis with the help of the Internet. It’s not as easy as it sounds, as symptoms are often common to many illnesses and symptoms by themselves are not the only clue to illnesses. There are also clues in other aspects of the history and not forgetting physical examination and physical signs which patients often do...

For healthcare, the initial launch includes Sexually Transmitted Diseases in the U.S. and Cancer cases in the U.S. The charts allow selection by state and time options. For these two charts, CDC data sources are used. So could this data explorer be used more broadly with other health data sets. For starters, those at Data.gov (although most of the health data sets are Medicare cost data).

Well, according to a CBS News.com article, the word “Asperger’s” was Google’s most popular search term on Wednesday. (Oddly, ratings-wise, “Parenthood” didn’t win its Tuesday night time slot.) And, while there’s nothing funny about Asperger’s Syndrome, here’s something we can laugh about. On Wednesday, Google’s third most searched-for term was this attempted version: “assburgers.” Post from: BlissTree (Source: Breastfeeding ...

The video, which showed Italian children taunting an autistic schoolmate, was promptly taken down after Italian authorities notified Google. The company assisted the authorities in locating the girl who uploaded it, according to Google’s account. (Her subsequent conviction makes it safe to assume that Google was cooperating with a criminal investigation as required by Italian law.) But four Google employees were charged with criminal defamation and failure to comply with the Italian privacy code. That can’t happen here—unless we let it happen here. This is a good time to revi...

So I’m very glad when I see an example that works in real, and it means there are reasons to work more and more in order to change healthcare through social media. I also have to mention the 53% adoption rate of hospitals. Ed Bennett highlighted we’re now at 805  hospitals out of 1,500 doing some sort of social media. Not bad, right? Let’s see the scenario Ves Dimov, MD featured on Clinical Cases and Images: “It is difficult to keep track of which patients are in which rooms, how many patients are in the waiting room, and how far the doctors are falling behind with their patien...

Now it turns out it’s not the future: Google’s popular mail service, GMail, has launched advertising targeted not just to the particular e-mail message you are reading, but to other e-mails you might have read recently. For example, let’s say you’re looking at a message from a friend wishing you a happy birthday. If there aren’t any good ads for birthdays, you might see the Chicago flight ads related to your last email instead. You may have also heard about the Google Buzz scandal. It might be one reason why so...

The problem was that this exposed your contacts to one another, initially including even their email addresses (which you didn’t realize nor intend when you agreed to Google Buzz that first day it launched). And Google never asked your permission to add these people to your Buzz network. It also shared your Google Reader documents, apparently. (I don’t use Google Reader, so I wasn’t aware of this comp...

We have setup websites for ten doctors within the first month of going live, which means the idea behind the venture is a solid one. Doctors have a business to run and need to provide high quality information to their patients to give high quality service. A website is a great medium to communicate with patients – and has now become a key tool for every doctor in private practice. Why does Website for Doctors appeal to the doctors who are signing up? Because we are a specialized service, like a highly specialized clinic, serving only doctors. Since we focus on dealing only with doctors, we understand their needs and wants , so we can deliver what is best for them. Every website we have done has gone live online within 48 hours of the doctor providing us with the required information. W...

I say “unsuspecting” because suddenly, without warning or notice, this new “feature” appears to Gmail users as a part of their email program. This was an unprecedented way to launch a product — in disguise right in the middle of another product. Google, despite generating billions of dollars in revenue every year and employing the supposedly brightest minds in the industry, didn’t foresee the backlash that would occur. Apparently, despite its ridiculous hiring process and wading through oceans of money, Google can’t hire people who understand privacy. But this isn’t the first time Google has had a lack of empathy or understanding abo...

It was interesting to see the initial responses from colleagues about the tweets - but then they just got a bit overwhelmed watching one side fo a conversation and switched off. Instead I am trying to get them to join twitter...will see. Google seem to be highly responsive to change and I am enjoying the fluidity of teh Buzz response team at present Ves Dimov, M.D. - Twitter is inferior platform to Buzz. Hardly suitable for conversation. Unless the Twitter team changes its structure, it will fade away and be replaced by Buzz and Facebook....
