Online community acts as clearinghouse for diabetes blogging   

A new Web community called the DiabetesBlogNetwork.com aims to give diabetes patients and caregivers a centralized location for personal diabetes blogs and discussion. The site, from Incendia Health Studios, is "the Zagat Guide" of blogs, Fabio Gratton, president and CEO of Incendia, tells ePharm5. He says the site is reviewed and updated from real diabetes bloggers, and that people are rewarded with free music downloads when they post, rate, and review blogs. The site also has an RSS feed that users can subscribe to. Incendia Health Studios also recently launched BannerMoments.com, a new online community for women with breast cancer (ePharm5, 10/5/06).
