Everything that's great comes from blogging!

Today, I want to point out what Webicina is and why it is important. You may be asking yourselves....webicina? What the heck is that? and Why should I care....

Here's why. Just about everything in my professional life has gotten light years' better since I started blogging. Some notable achievements.....

1. Invited to participate on the Coriell Personalized Medicine Collaborative's ICOB
2. Invited to speak on a panel with Navigenics, 23andMe, deCode, DNADirect
3. Inivited again to speak on a panel with Linda Avey (this one for the second time)
4. Invited to speak to the National Society of Genetic Counselors about personal genomics
5. Working on a scientific collaboration with OSU (and many others) because of blogging
6. Interviewed by Karen Shughrue of 60 Minutes and the NYT and the LA Times and MSNBC and CBS.........
7. I met some great friends
8. I have been asked by 3 web health companies to help them create genomics resources
9. I have formed 2 companies because of blogging
10. I have learned to handle the masses of people who disagree with me in much better fashion
11. I have sparked a national debate when everyone was cheering something that was not quite of value.

I could go even further but I won't b/c I want to talk about how it all started.

There was this guy named Bertalan Mesko.

He saw that I started a lowly blog back in March of 2007. He stepped in and said, "Let me help you build your blog" First you have to get HON Coded, next you have to join a group, then you should do 1,2 and 3..........Why was this important?

You see, Berci (as his friends call him) was starting his company without even knowing it. What he did for me, he had most certainly done for dozens of other blogger....the fruits of his labor are now called Webicina!

What can Webicina offer you? exactly what it offered me.

Building medical blogs and online reputationIt is crucial for a medical professional to have a well designed online image. Patients are more likely to search for the name of their doctors to find some information about them or their practices. And the information they find online should represent their pratice properly.A medical blog is a perfect tool for establishing an online presence.

It is pretty plain and simple. Berci (Webicina) launched the Gene Sherpa! There is no reason why they can't launch you too.......

The Sherpa Says:
Hopefully Webicina will collaborate with Helix Health of Connecticut of CT to create online educational conferences this coming year........
