Just getting on the Web2.0 bandwagon? Oh, that is so 2004ish.

Why think about Web2.0 when we can all get ahead of the curve and start talking Web3.0?

Then again we can just sit back and take the view of Google’s CEO Schmidt, who in responding to a reporter’s question on Web3.0 stated:
“Web 2.0 is a marketing term, and I think you’ve just invented Web 3.0.”

Classic!

Listen to PropellorHead (sp?) Decks and Drums. I often think of it when I read the uber vendor (Epic, Cerner, Allscripts, etc) dreck here. No offense intended but really – they are all bad in one way or another. It is mostly just a matter of style as to which one you end upwith. The unfortunate part is that you can get pigeon holed in healthcare like no other industry sector just based on the vendor you have to play Russell Crowe’s Gladiator character too in your day to day.

Sorry for the ramble/rant. Just tired of viewing any of these moofs as the real answer. Give me a clever programmer for any of these posers any day and I can make the lipstick on any Epic/Cerner/GE/McKesson harlot look closing time good…
