Brian Ahier - Health IT: Wave and Healthcare

  • andy stewart · 2 months ago
    Online collaborating and teaching can work, If you have trust and the right tools.
    I recently tried http://www.showdocument.com - good app for uploading documents and working on them in real-time.
    Most file types are supported and it needs no installation. - andy

    I think the most confusing part here is the "public" wave - currently, a wave is public insofar as you have a Google Wave account. But as time moves on, I suppose we'll see the emergence of a truly public wave platform.

    I'm looking forward to exploring the health care uses of Wave. Once we see the development over the API, we'll have even clearer views of just what can be done with Wave.

    I really like the emphasis on collaboration in Wave. There are at least as many uses for Wave in a healthcare setting as there are for twitter, email, etc.

    "There are at least as many uses for Wave in a healthcare setting as there are for twitter, email, etc." ~ since you can share documents and files inside a wave the possibilities become intense...

    To hjluks - GWave is fun, but it's very much an alpha product. There's almost too many freedom and options. I think the most effective communication happens when your options are limited.

    Looks like wave is not going to be good for a while. I'm not missing anything so far.
