Free patient websites, blogs, support and community - CarePages.com - 0 views

  •  
    Carepages is a site that allows individuals undergoing a health care challenge to connect with others going through the same experience. Families are also able to create their own blogs and websites where they can share updates with family and friends. Carepages provides support, community, and resources for anyone needing information and help during these trying times.Teachers can use this site to gain knowledge of conditions that might be affecting their students as well as by providing them with a way to check in on a student who might be in the hospital.
  •  
    Carepages are a great way for families and patients to keep family and friends updated both in and out of the hospital. They would also be a great way for teachers and students to stay in touch with a friend who is in the hospital and missing school.
  •  
    A website that connects patients during a "health challenge." This site, like CaringBridge, is for ill children and families and has information, discussion boards, and blogging. Although useful for a certain segment of the population, does it belong on techhome?

Family Fun, Blogs, Homes, Health, Travel, Parenting, Marriage - Families.com - 1 views

  •  
    Families.com is a great website for parents and families. There is a lot of information on a variety of different topics. This site provides a discussion forum where members can post topics to gain advice or knowledge from other members. I recommend it as an easy way for parents to stay informed and connected with other parents.
  •  
    Advice blogs and discussions on a variety of topics but not about technology.
  •  
    This website would be useful for parents and families. Not only do they offer a plethora of blogs, there are message boards, as well as money saving ideas and coupons. This website offers a lot of support to parents or all different types of families. For example, you can sort the blogs you are reading, by selecting "Jewish Family", "Single Parent" or "Fatherhood" just to name a few. Members can comment on blogs and offer their opinions and support. The only thing I did not love about this site is that there are lots of advertisements.

TokBox - Free Video Chat and Video Messaging - 4 views

  •  
    Recently learned about this new web-based tool and have tried out the feature which makes it very easy to send a video message by email. I am also interested to test out the chat feature, which would allow a group of people to hold a videochat (up to 20, according to the website), to see how well this works. If it works well, it could be used in many ways, to support meetings and collaborative work.
