This week marks the 10th anniversary of the "Web Log" ... the genesis of the "Blog".  Of course, sharing ideas over the internet goes back to the dawn of the net itself.  The original idea of the then government sponsored network was to connect academic institutions and government agencies for the purpose of research and collaboration.

The Blog came along originally as a way to share information about where the "blogger" had been on the internet that day and what they had experience.  It quickly became an on-line diary of sorts.  This created the "stickiness" of the concept which since evolved in that dimension and many more.  

For My Health Care Manager the concept has been extended to caregivers helping aging parents and even seniors looking to improve the health and well-being.  Take a look at the blogs listed here - you'll find information on all of the most common heath challenges facing seniors and their families.  Some examples include falls, home safety, dementia, congestive heart failure, diabetes, and many more.

Having access to key thoughts on these challenges is valuable, but even more valuable is the key blogging concept of providing direct feedback to the author.  If you have a question of a comment on an article you've read, don't hesitate to use the "Comments" link right below the posting.  You can read comments and responses from others and best of all ask your question directly. 

If you don't see an article on the subject you're most interested in, post your question as a comment to the top entry in the Blog.  We'll answer the question in a future blog, comment, or email.
