Are You a Cyberchondriac?
According to a Harris Interactive poll, 160 million Americans use the Internet to seek out health diagnoses and information. 74 percent of those polled have looked up medical information more than once in the last month. Harris calls them (us), 'cybercondriacs'. In just two years, the number of 'cybercondriacs' has increased 37 percent from 136 million people to its current level of 160 million people.
160 million represents a whopping 71 percent of all Web surfers. So what do you say -- are you willing to cop to being a 'cybercondriac?' Do you stay up at night clicking for your next illness?
