New Web site lets users search for, share health information   

Pharma companies could be among the first sponsors of a Web site that says it is the first health-focused social networking site. OrganizedWisdom.com allows consumers, healthcare professionals, and health organizations share their knowledge about more than 6,500 health topics. Users can search for information about health topics, and if a particular health topic does not yet have a sponsor, links will appear that invite sponsors to "be the first to sponsor this page." Content is divided into information from the site's health library or from the online community. For example, a search about headaches can either yield doctor-reviewed informational content or tips and feedback from other members of the community about their experiences with headaches.
