Web 2.0: Consistency, Relevancy and Reliability

With all of the hype surrounding Web 2.0 in 2005, now seems like a good idea to examine its implications for health and mental health online. Do Web 2.0 services, such as Flickr and Del.icio.us, bring a new paradigm to understand and leverage for online health? Or are they valuable individual services that suffer from lack of consistency when tasked with providing the larger Internet populace with useful information? Is tagging a solution to the problem of “too much information,” or one possible solution that comes with its own problems??
