I hope that many of you have taken time to visit makemedicinebetter.org. A huge thank you to all the BJC staff members who helped to bring this new site to life by reviewing the inititial design and making recommendations to make it better; going out and playing on the site during its pre-launch phase and making recommendations to make the navigation better; and being willing to share suggestions and comments to ensure that the site was visitor-ready. To be sure, the site is still evolving and while the number of visitors continues to grow, the site will only be as good as the content that is included. The great thing about a social site is that while we have the ability to post lots of content, there is freedom for anyone who registers to share what is on their mind in the "Who's Talking" section. Also, we encourage everyone to nominate a hero -- someone who is doing something swell for others, share ideas on how medicine can be made better and participate in the online polls.
I also want to encourage you to send suggestions to me on how to make the site even better. We look forward to posting Day in the Life videos, new blogs and other information that will keep the site fresh. But, I am sure that many of you have recommendations that I (and others working on this site) have not considered, so please share them. We also know that getting traffic to an online site is not as simple as the Field of Dreams mantra of "If you build it, they will come." Thus, BJC's new billboards and tv and radio spots all invite the public to visit makemedicinebetter.org. I hope you will do the same.
