If you’ve been following Med 2.0 for a while, let me first thank you for your support; but as you may know, I am almost constantly playing the catch-up game and not always able to publish new blog posts as often as I would really like.
So, in order to help lighten the load a little and also to bring a fresh (and international) perspective to the blog, I’ve asked my friend, Erik van der Zijden from Holland, to help guest/co-blog on Med 2.0.
Erik works at Intervet/Schering-Plough (in Holland) and is also the co-founder of DigiRedo — a new media agency with a focus on pharma and healthcare. Erik has plenty of experience with Web 2.0, social media, and traditional media as well, and you can read his blog posts on the DigiRedo blog.
I first met Erik — together with his colleagues/friends, Rene and Annemieke — earlier this year at the 2008 New Media Expo in Las Vegas, NV. After spending an evening with them chatting over dinner, we all discovered that we share the same passion for bringing Web 2.0 and social media into the world of medicine, pharma, and healthcare.
So it is with that common passsion and goal, that I am glad to invite Erik to share this blog space with me and look forward to his upcoming posts and media updates (Erik does a lot of video and multimedia work). I’m sure you’ll all enjoy them too!
