This is a poorly executed launch. Poor because there is a serious shortage of partners supporting the launch. I'm not sure if this is a signal of Google's challenge of building trust with users who may see Google managing personal, confidential, and critical information as highly controversial. Believe it or not, I was more impressed with Microsoft's Health effort (<a href="http://healthvault.com/%29--and" rel="nofollow">http://healthvault.com/)--and</a> a MSFT plug is rare for me.bradbaldwinTue, 03 Jun 2008 03:32:54 -0000
