I think it's awesome, but better to do it through the doctors office than through patients, since most people aren't going to bother thinking about it until they're sick.
I guess there are privacy concerns and stuff, but seriously. It blows my mind that I have to answer the same questions every time I go to a doctor. In the 21st century, why on earth isn't all this stuff on file somewhere for any doctor in the world to access?
- sixQuarks 14y agoI actually think it will work better as a "private family network". All it would take is one person to start it, then email family members and tell them to add whatever info they can. There is a viral effect to it. Each family member that joins will see themselves as the "center" node, with branches connecting them to their closest relatives. The software should be smart enough to connect each member intelligently. So let's say you enter your grandmother's information, the software will ask: mother's side or father's side. then will create an empty node for your parents, and link it through them to your grandmother. (make sense?). Anyway, there's a bunch of cool things you can do with it.
