Hi,
As a number of the Psycho-Babble board members have been nice enough to share treatment ratings on my site RemedyFind, I thought you might be interested in a change to the site.RemedyFind has been purchased by a start-up company called Revolution Health. Revolution Health was created by Steve Case (AOL founder) and others, with the goal of bringing constructive change to health care. The aim is to give people the tools, information and support to actively manage their health and wellness. I’m now a Revolution Health employee and think the new company has the ideals, and resources, to really achieve some amazing things. In the next few weeks, RemedyFind is going to be merged with the Revolution Health site, and will become an important part of it. What you see on RemedyFind now (unbiased lists of treatment options; strict privacy protection) is what you'll see on Revolution Health, only better.
Revolution Health is in preview mode now and your participation and feedback would be greatly appreciated before we open it up to the public later this month. If you have a minute, please go to http://www.revolutionhealth.com/preview?code=YQ1zrIG6u3 and register (it’s free). If you are already a RemedyFind member, be sure to use the email address you used at RemedyFind – so that we will be able to identify you and move over your RemedyFind treatment ratings.
Here are a few things you can do on the site:
* Rate your doctor and see what others say
* Create a blog
* Share the helpful websites / resources you have found
* Ask health questions and get answers from people like you
* Fill out a profile and invite others into your circle
* Create charts to chronicle the course of your health and moodThanks again for participating in our preview and for being an important part of the launch and building of Revolution Health. Feel free to let your friends know about the site too - the more input we can get now the better (they can use the same url to get to the preview site).
All the best, Brett HodgesNote: If you have a Mac, you should use a Firefox browser instead of Safari (we are working on accommodating Safari for our public debut).

I like how you used the word Unbiased. For me that really is key. On a site like remedyfind it's really integral to not sway to outside pressure to censor or promote (IE: Who you let Advertise/donate)...
Either way I love RemedyFind and I'll be sure to check out the new site once it's launched.
Good luck!
