My article “Integrating Web 2.0 with Mental Health Care” written for the Connect Newsletter (Autumn 2010 issue) is now available to view online. Connect is the newsletter of the Mental Health Informatics Special Interest Group (MHSIG) of the Royal College of Psychiatrists.
The article covers the current and potential use of some Web 2.0 applications and the emergence of mobile technology which offer an exciting future for developing a wide variety of mental health and social care resources both for practitioners and clients (as well as other areas of health).

Great article – I was especially interested in your investigation of patient blogs because one of my students is studying that topic, although more looking at pain and chronic disease than mental health. Have you written more on this?
