Thought folks might find these articles/resources interesting or useful:
Use of the Internet: Two articles that address the use of the Internet to
find information, including health information:
* Online Activities and Pursuits. According to a December 2007 Pew
Internet & American Life Project report, more people turn to the Internet to
provide information and resources for help with a variety of common
problems. The 23% with low or no Internet access turn to TV and radio for
help. View the article:

* Social Networks and Health Searches. In a January 2008 Media Post
Publications article, new research from iCrossing indicated that about 60%
of all adults use the Web to find health and wellness information. View the
