The Next New Thing

The next new thing in new media, could be the cyber interaction between a doctor and patient.

Through Skype, doctors could talk to patients about their ailments with the patients leaving their homes. This type of new media would be best for elderly patients who have problems leaving their homes. This is also useful for patients who need routine follow up visits.

For doctors, this would be a way to give them more time to care for patients who are very sick.

Patients would simply schedule an appointment over skype, discuss their issues the doctor and it would save them a trip to the doctor's office.
