Once again I want to thank MultiView/PRNewswire for accommodating our conference room needs on such a short notice. You guys saved the day but I do hope we outgrow that room very quickly!

The Health 2.0 NYC Meetup was a great success. Many dynamic individuals showed up that are passionate about healthcare!. Representatives from Phreesia, Rareshare.org, HealthWorldWeb.com, DrChrono.com are just an example.

First half hour was supposed to be a networking session but this group dove right into passionate conversations:

(1) Twitter, twitter, twitter - I feel like i hear that word at every water cooler (HBO please come out with another hit show)

(2) 23andme - I broke out my newly received kit. Some interesting conversations around it as I presented putting my genome out there in the pseudo-public

(3) We spend a lot of time around privacy. Do you want your work to know about your chronic disease, your friends, would you twitter, would you trust Google Health or Microsoft Vault with your data? wow - it was a fun one!

(4) Health 2.0 Startups got their turn with just a few minutes to say what they do and how they do it :)

(5) All around introductions!!!

(6) Doctor Reviews - Zagat/Wellpoint discussion. Doctor Reviews in the cloud - combined 30+ rating sites sharing same data bank. I introduced the concept at the HealthCampPhila last weekend. Seemed like there was warm reception once again tonight.

(7) Hospitals and Twitter as well as a good discussion around Sherman Health #sherman

Somewhere in the middle I was able to actually stop the flow of conversations to give a bit of an introduction!!!!
