Health Care Blogging Summit 2006

Health Care Blogging Summit 2006

The first Healthcare Blogging Summit will be held on December 11, 2006, at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, DC, co-located at Consumer Health World.

I've been invited by Dmitriy Kruglyak, the organizer of the summit to participate as a panel member of the session on Healthcare Blogging - Facts & Issues. The panel members include:
The focus of the panel will be on:
Whether or not you are ready to participate directly, there are some things about blogging you need to know. As you are reading these lines bloggers may be writing about your organization and shaping the public opinion! How do blogs work? How many are out there? What is the source of bloggers’ trust, credibility and influence? What options does an organization have for responding to the activities of independent bloggers? What about the legal and ethical considerations?
