Patients and the Web.
(Sounds sort of like a children's book title, no? "Once upon a time, there was the Internet...")
My friend Berci at ScienceRoll asked me to create a video to show his Medicine 2.0 class how the web can impact chronic disease management. My take on the whole concept is that it's amazing how the web can bring a world of people together to share their common experiences, which for me makes diabetes less isolating. I used to be one of the only diabetics I knew - now I know hundreds!
Thanks, Berci, for letting me virtually address your class. I hope they didn''t think I talked too fast.

I think you did a great job. Of course, this video is another "resource". :)
