my baby

The web site www.pathology-wisdom.com It is a wiki all about pathology. Simply put, I think it is going to be the coolest thing since sliced bread.

The idea is similar to what drives Wikipedia, which is a community of interested individuals who all have free and equal access to edit most everything on the site. Mediawiki, the php engine that drives the SQL database, keeps a history of posted entries so that the efforts of evil people is easily thwarted by roll-back to a previous version of any particular entry.

It was challenging to initially get the thing going, although now the server works and I am in the proccess of adding content I have been accruing in Voodoopad, a personal wiki with automatic wikification. My vision is to create the most comprehensive, organized, and useful database of pathology-related medical information in the world. This is going to include images.
