Another 'Inspiring' Cancer Patient Story? Don't Think SoEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
I've written about PR people before ... and you'd think a PR person would actually READ some of my blog before pitching a story to me, but no. Another one just came in, from a PR person who actually has his own PR firm, Matt Russell, president and CEO of Russell Public Communications. I don't know where this guy is based, in the 520 area code, wherever that is. Here's the first paragraph of his pitch, which is as far as I read:Here’s an inspiring story that I thought would be of interest to you and your community, and the big moment is this week. To me, it reflects the kind of attitude that ca...

Online BuddiesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
My most loyal "online buddy," The Cheeky Librarian, sent me the link to this story on NPR about online friends. The story is interesting, but the information in it is nothing new to any of the people I know with cancer who use the Web to share information and support each other. One source quoted in the story says that patients are far ahead of doctors and hospitals in their use of the Internet. Yeah, we know that. One quibble: The story talks about the use of social networking sites by patients, and while I know that people do use these sites, I think that blogs and also listservs and bulletin boards...

I am someone who is constantly grappling with a TMI problem -- Too Much Information. I have cobbled together a patchwork of solutions in response.

Recently and in order to cope with my TMI problem, I have begun to use my Palm Pre to quickly scan incoming email during my odd downtime intervals.

I agree with Kevin MD that Dr. Bryan Vartabedian has made an important point, that is Physicians are Obligated to Participate in Social Media.

Many of our patients already scour the internet or ask their contacts in blogs, forums, facebook for help when in comes to health issues. Googling is often not enough as the hits can be so varied and include information from scammers, MLMers and outright misinformation.
