Be Fit With Biray

In Hawaiian wiki means “quickly” or “fast.” In today’s internet-savvy world, the term wiki has evolved to “a type of computer software that allows users to easily create, edit and link web pages.” The most popular one being wikipedia.

Since wiki software is open source, more professionals are creating their own industry wikis as a way to organize field information and collaborate on company projects. Of course, what better use of a wiki than to take advantage of the collective intelligence of health, fitness and wellness professionals!

Attention all health and medical professionals (especially doctors): there is now an official medical wiki (WiserWiki) accessible by any internet user. All entries will be “edited only by board certified doctors to ensure that the information is as trustworthy and reliable as possible.” It’s still in its infancy (beta phase), therefore, has limited entries. But over time, I suspect this will be a significant resource for the general population, as well as, medical professionals for acquiring knowledge on all-things health-related. Think of it as WebMD meets Wikipedia.

Nothing is currently available exclusively for fitness or wellness professionals, but perhaps it will only be a matter of time before we see a group exercise wiki or a personal training wiki.

Watch out world, here wiki-come!
