> I'm supposed to say something [in Washington next week] about: (1) how aware patients in online support groups are of the various online ethics and quality initiatives, (2) to what extent those initiatives influence their use of online resources, (3) what other methods they use to decide whom to trust, and (4) the ethics of facilitating such groups.

> Any comments on any of the above? (Remember, these are comments I might present.)Or, looking at it another way, I'd be curious:
1. From the perspective of someone looking for information, how do you decide what information to trust? What leads you to trust a web site? Another group member?
2. From the perspective of someone providing information, do you just pass it on, or do you try to present it in a certain way?
Thanks!
