Google Releases Health Service Details
Google CEO Eric Schmidt told the Associated Press that the search engine will not use advertising to support its new health service that is currently being beta tested at the Cleveland Clinic.
Schmidt says Google's new service is merely a platform for users to store their medical information. It will be an open system inviting third parties to build direct-to-consumer services like medication tables or immunization reminders. He emphasizes no data would be shared without the consumer's consent.
