Search Engines for Cyberchondriacs
Many of us have admitted to being a cyberchondriac, so what's a cyberchondriac to do in this google happy world. Well, stop googling, for one. Instead search for health problems that you may have now and could have in the future, on sites that will only search reputable health sites backed by physicians, not some guy sitting in his basement.
Are You a Cyberchondriac?

The Internet is a useful tool, but there is a lot of information with little context provided, making it easy for the impressionable to jump to conclusions.
