>From Edupage: CR TACKLES ONLINE MEDICAL HELP Consumer Reports spent two months exploring and evaluating the myriad medical information sites on the Web, and has concluded, "The wealth of useful medical information available online is well worth the initial difficulty of finding one's way around this new world -- and the constant need to be on guard against dubious material." Their recommendations? < http://www.ama-assn.org >, < http://www.medicinenet.com >, < http://medscape.com >, < http://www.oncolink.upenn.edu >, < http://parentsplace.com >, < http://pathfinder.com/thrive >. Also recommended are two sites that offer links to other sites: < http://www.arcade.uiowa.edu/hardin-www/md.html > and < http://www.slackinc.com/matrix >. Oh, and if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. (Consumer Reports Feb 97 p27) --------- My opinions are my own, NIP's opinions are theirs ---------- Simon J.
