Here are some great articles I found this week.

Australian Students ditching Outlook for gMail

This is something I was really excited about, being a big fan of gMail and Google Apps for Your Domain in particular, and not a big fan of Outlook/Exchange. Basically one and a half Australian students just started using gMail. This is particularly interesting, as these students will enter the workforce familiar with a whole new set of tools.

More on topic with health care, the article below from Ars Technica talks about safeguarding patient medical records, and extending it to cover things like Google Health and Microsoft's HealthVault.

FriendFeed and Brands

In the realm of branding and social networking, I found an interesting article on FriendFeed. Now, if I can only figure out what email address I used when I signed up, I'll be happy.

Embedding RSS with Google's Ajax API

Google has apparently made embedding RSS super easy, and since I am working on a bunch of feed related projects, I will be all over this. At first glance it is cool, but I'd like to be able to jut add feeds directly. I'll need to spend more time with it.
