Well it has to be said that Google is very good at developing applications that make our life easier and allow us to integrate with the web. That's a long way from saying they could provide the NHS with a reliable and servicable records system. Whilst the NHS has experienced the evident incompetance of the IT provided by government, getting into bed with a private provider carries it's own inherent risks. I think the problem lies in presuming that one system will serve all our needs. Even the NHS does not work like this. Integration across boundaries by all accounts but keep the strategies implemented locally.
