I have a fair few family and friends in the medical field, and I look forward to what comes out of the Google healthcare work.

I think there is a lot of room for social medicine that uses the wisdom of crowds. We tend to trust our doctors and think of them as near god-like figures, yet they misdiagnose more than anyone thinks (not because they are bad, but because they are human).

I would love to see a network of doctors around the world with varied backgrounds (western, eastern, hell even voodoo).

Doctors (and in theory in time the public) could tap into the network with cases and the network could offer their comments, advice, and votes.

Has anyone registered Medicine 2.0?
