There’s a ton of applications listed here and this company allows the updating and sharing of data as the article explains and you can watch the video to see how this works as it’s building data base information. The next choice is up to the user to focus on their internal applications they use or the other side is to build more data bases for sale. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure that one out with the epidemic of data selling we have out there today. It’s the same as using a spreadsheet if you will, and you can do anything you want if you will with a focus. Spreadsheets are pretty much miniature versions of a data base if you will that have code that does things. I used to do that all the time, put some visual basic modules in a spreadsheet and then you end up with one that really cooks and does stuff.
The example company here is called Zapier and the video shows an overall picture of how this works.
The next video shows how to connect Survey Monkey to Google Spreadsheets. Bingo then you have all the information organized to put out one of those “surveys” on the web, and I grow really tired of those as we have too many out there as everyone wants to be the survey master:) Surveys annoy me as it’s the old “team building” effect to sell something or move enough people to your way of thinking and the crowd surveyed a lot of the time may not contain the right demographics for the content but if you get enough people reading them over and over, then folks come to the conclusion “well get it must be right”. Scroll down to my footer and watch the first video, “Context is Everything” to get some insight on that one, warning though you may never participate in another survey once you do:)
Again when used internally the tool can be helpful and there’s the small free account and then you pay when your data hunger increases. There’s another video here that shows how to take Google glass data and follow the same path.
You go through and set your “triggers” to automate the processes. Sharing documents has been around for a long time as well as pictures and this automates the process. Watching the Evernote Synch is interesting. Again I can see both sides with production internally but there’s that other side and why we really need to license and excise tax the data sellers as you can pretty much be assured the brains on making money with creating data for sale are also tuning in here as well.
I’m not a spoil sport but again being a hybrid I look at both sides as to what the data folks will do to increase production and second how a marketing person will want to sell some of what they integrate. Putting your Evernote content into Gmail, a good thing but the example with the survey up above shows the other side and again why we need to license and tax the data sellers as here’s yet one more tool that can be used. I can already see the insurance business jumping in on this one with all the survey and data they put out to market for profit as they always do. BD
Time Has Come to License and Tax the Data Sellers of the Web, Companies, Banks, Social Networks..Any One Making a Profit-Latest Microsoft/Google Privacy War Helping the Cause –Consumers Deserve to Know What Is Being Sold and To Who in a Searchable Format
Kevin Lavelle uses this method at Mizzen+Main, his men's apparel company in Dallas: When a customer makes a purchase at his online store, the information flows from the store's host, Shopify, to PayPal, which collects payments, and Stitch Labs, which monitors inventory. Then it's processed by Xero, which tracks the store's finances.For years, many small firms have been leaning on low-cost online programs to handle jobs like inventory, accounting and payment processing. But those services came with a big caveat: They couldn't share information with each other. So, if your order system rang up a sale, you had to record it manually in your inventory system.
Now small companies are finding simpler ways to swap their data. They're using new programming tricks and low-cost third-party services that let them link up online software with minimal fuss. "For some of these companies, that amount of savings in time and money is substantial," says Ross Beyeler, founder of Growth Spark, a technology-consulting firm in Cambridge, Mass. "It's more than substantial. It's the deciding factor that allows them to start up."
For business owners who don't want to tinker with codes, there are third-party programs—such as Zapier and If This Then That—that automatically link up applications. Zak Tanjeloff uses Zapier at his New York-based workout-supplement company, JackedPack. When he gets an order, Zapier sends the customer's data from an e-commerce program to another service that sorts the customers onto specialized mailing lists to keep them abreast of new products and promotions.

SocialWellth’s certification process leverages behavioral psychologists, information architects and other internal and external subject matter experts. Using quick-polls, the marketplace initiates a digital dialog with consumers to gain insights that will ultimately drive a hyper-personalized experience. 
have different types of systems that need to connect and talk to each other. Sounds like I’m talking about electronic medical again doesn’t it:) Well it’s the same processes that everyone is bitching about there as well. 
algorithm day too as they deal with it daily and they don’t know either when one glitch aka one algorithm is going to shoot down a fully connected system as the data all talks to each other and it rolls uphill and it rolls downhill. I have tried to cover it as it is here being I used to write code and give a little insight as to what goes on with the workloads from the “working” side and it’s a lot of pressure. 
that don’t realize that all laws are tied to an IT infrastructure and you can’t just say we are going repeal a law that has a ton of working IT infrastructure written not to mention expense. Watching the soap operas and antics this week I would really like to reach out to these folks stumbling with this and educate them as to what goes on with the other side. It’s the same old thing in a way with lawmakers seeing little value with the complexities the folks have to work with today and then soap opera continues. 
not respond to the the alert if let’s say one were sleeping or otherwise not reacting with the unit. The sensor can be worn for 6 days and is smaller than most on the market 
glucose values reach a preset level and when the patient doesn’t respond to the Threshold Suspend alarm. 
sensor detects up to 93 percent of hypoglycemia episodes when predictive and threshold alerts are on.
equity firm does as far as managing and hopefully turning a profit again for the company. A loss of $7 billion a year sounds like some serious money issues. 
marketing to make some money, no concern for accuracy. See they even say how good their marketing is…
here with the resignations and the information the actions are all pointed at the CEO and the Board to include their legal counsel. 
and oranges someone needs to update their segmentation parameters as they don’t play out very well most of the time. For Obamacare some hospitals have even created their own insurance plans and some will be in the insurance exchanges, so they don’t hate everything. 
publicly in the press 
it was also an entirely different need to be filled. With drug shortages this could open doors for hospitals as an example look for for drugs and perhaps even those where shortages exist. 
company, nice and one of the few that’s not pouncing on consumers to enter all their information into an app to secure data for sale. 
I suggested they take a look at IBM Watson to help them model, private industry does this right and left, pays off with those math models at Citibank to get richer.
conditions”…says Cruz..
of app to fall all over. Consumers can’t identify this but the developers and Query Masters can and feed on it and we get this glut of apps that few use. I’m probably pretty vocal that way as I used to code and I used to sell too so I’m a weird hybrid out here in the medical blogging world and that’ why you see these types of post over here and nowhere else:)
in house, and there’s still a lot of Visual Basic in the software, still pretty solid. Do you see that with many of the other medical record companies, very few(e-MDs is one) and most are the big conglomerates like Allscripts who blew it a couple of years ago not telling shareholders the truth about all the code needed to blend two different software program…CEOs not involved in the heart of the software blow it and do things like that. 
up the portals and even the advertising on some the websites from some of the advertisers and come clean with consumers on who is selling your data, what kind of data they sell, to what companies or governments and have this flat out transparent on a federal web site. I’m not too particularly happy knowing that Walgreens make about a billion a year selling data, our data they get for free and then I read all their article about engaging the patient, sure when there’s big money to be made. Looks to me like the real winners here with both EHRs and PHRs are the ones who are not selling your data all over the place…an omen? 
savings don’t amount to beans as far as the over all picture of what is spent on healthcare. Back in 2008 I wrote about the McSleepy machine in Canada but it was attached to a cell phone for an anesthesiologist to monitor. 
numbers said were spent on sedating patients for colonoscopies and the cost for the machine would be $150 versus $200 to $400 for a procedures, no thanks J and J I’m worth the extra money for that dollar amount. 
billion is spent each year sedating patients undergoing otherwise painful colonoscopies, according to a RAND Corp. study that J&J sponsored.
is low or a high risk. Nobody like a biopsy and thus any tests with any areas of cancer like this would be greatly appreciated by consumers as well. The PSA is not gone, just got better with adding new markers for specificity. The University of Michigan Health System has begun offering a new urine test and a doctor’s request is needed to get the new patented test. 
GPS for your knee surgery to increase the levels of accuracy. This is what makes robotic surgery popular of course for doctors and patients to cut down on errors and getting precise placement. It’s also much easier on the patient when it comes to recovery as well. 
fear we all have is data used out of context and we have seen it but with complexities and more math in everything today the envelope gets pushed. Here's a post from November of last year on that topic at the link below with a good video and the big companies are talking and are not even sure what the quants and actuaries are to do with a lot of this data yet and how to find the value. NASA is one of the participants. Even Larry Ellison said in an interview referencing the NSA situation to
