] HipMojo.com » Example of Applying Social Media and Wisdom of the Crowds to Health

As I usually do, I just wanted to take a quick moment to introduce our latest sponsor, iMedix.

iMedix has won numerous awards and accolades; it’s one of the better exercises and uses of social networking, basically a health-centric community with plenty of information that allows you to learn more about health-oriented issues from professional sources as well as people who have - unfortunately - gone through the same challenges and - fortunately - persevered.

Anyway, expect the usual bag of banners, text links and experimentations in the weeks and hopefully months to come.  In the meantime, check it out.  I am not a major fan of anything-goes UGC sites and you all know I think the social media space, but as a hypochondriac myself who spends a lot of time searching for health content, applications of social media tools can work if they target the right vertical and if executed wisely.

Judging by the press, it looks like iMedix is doing some things right.

Anyway, as a side note, on the internal / housekeeping side of things, this also shows us executing our advertising sales, sponsorship and partnership strategy they way startups should: not having fifty seven ad networks running remnant ads, but signing one partner per vertical or cluster and building that relationship.

We’re doing that with Student Universe in travel, and welcome iMedix in health.  Expect more such announcements soon… and if you are interested in working with WatchMojo.com on our property, blog network or very-rapidly-growing syndication network, drop me a line at ash@mojosupreme.com.

All right, speaking of health, I have a doctor appointment; my wife is eight months into her pregnancy… from there I am off to watch the Montreal Canadiens continue their mastery against the Philadelphia Flyers in Round 2 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

A more personal post I don’t think I could pen.
