So illtags.com was also a web app that sprang to my eye as a part of the finnfacts tour. Most certainly because it’s an app that uses collective knowledge to fight deceases.

It basically gathers data about how you and your friends are feeling – a very good example of this is the current global situation with the swineflu.

If you are ill you can list your tags on either facebook or on illtags.com if you want to give anonymous tags about your wellbeing.

Another nifty feature is that you can receive notifications if any of the places you have listed that you are visiting the most, has an increased level of different illness symptoms. I love when the collective datastream that we put out there is used to increase awareness of the things surrounding us – and illtags.com is one of those services… Two thumbs up from here=)
