Millions of people do that every day for years of their lives. But e-health is over-rated. It is not a killer application. It will be beneficial to the few who need continuous medical help, but I am not atypical. In my 60 years I have averaged two or three short medical consultations per year. That is nothing compared with 16 years of daily formal education, so don’t put e-health in the same category as e-education.

Just as we avoid doctors unless necessary, we don’t look to interact with the government unless we cannot avoid it. (I’d rather watch YouTube.)

The real killer application I think will be e-commuting.
