24. Regrouping to Plan
Just as genomics is the future of personalized
medicine, personalized media are changing the
way people get the news and information they
want and need. But as genomics increasingly
supplements and improves traditional medicine
without replacing it, new media are helpful
additions to mainstream, mass media. We
strongly recommend reforming our processes
to efficiently produce content that can be used
for both mass media and personalized media.
Content Creation Task Force, 7/26/2006
25. We recommend a three-phase approach. First,
take our existing products and, with minimum
incremental effort, place them in new media
formats. Second... work across teams ... to make
best use of the audio and video production
resources we have. Third, get more resources...
to produce timely or even daily content...
We have not recommended a blog strategy at
this time, primarily because we have emphasized
developing audio and video content that could
have multiple uses in both mass media and
personalized media, with relatively limited
physician involvement.

70. #2: Electronic tools merely
facilitate broader, more
efficient transmission by
overcoming inertia and
friction
71.
72. #4: Social media are the
third millenniumâs defining
communications trend
78. If you think blocking is a viable
long-term option...
79.
80. Implication
⢠You already have most of the risks...
why not also get some of the benefits
from these powerful tools?
81. âWhat about the negative
comments or complaints?â
⢠Anonymity is responsible for most
irresponsible trollish behavior
⢠Those grinding axes already have free
opportunities to broadast worldwide
⢠Preferable to air complaints in platform
on which we have significant influence
⢠âThe solution to pollution is dilution.â
