Andy Beal previews Google Health: Google Health Actually Google Co-op.
Google Co-op beta is a community where users can contribute their knowledge and expertise to improve Google search for everyone. Organizations, businesses, or individuals can label web pages relevant to their areas of expertise or create specialized links to which users can subscribe.
Significant contributors already involved in the co-op include the US National Library of Medicine, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Health on the Net Foundation, Harvard Medical School and Mayo Clinic. Other groups interested in contributing can inquire at the site.
On another post, Andy points to data compiled at Hitwise. Hitwise clickstream data shows that for the month of April 2006, 2.67% of Google's downstream traffic went to sites in the Health & Medical category. Yahoo! Search sent 2.43% of its traffic to this category, while MSN Search sent 1.97%.
