AskDrWiki -- A Collaborative Medical Encyclopedia

AskDrWiki.com is a medical encyclopedia based on a wiki platform. The authors were one of the first to use YouTube to upload medical videos. Dean Giustini and I discussed this fact a few weeks ago, and he wrote about it in his landmark BMJ editorial How Web 2.0 is changing medicine, linking to AskDrWiki.com.
Ganfyd is another medical Wiki community, created in November 2005 by a group of doctors working in the UK. It is intended to become a large on-line textbook of medicine (source: Wikipedia).Graham shares his concerns about medical wikis in his post "I Will Never Trust Dr. Wiki… because I will never trust malicious teenagers."
