ICYou. Think hospital wards, think videos.
ICYou is a video site focusing on healthcare. The site fulfills the role of support group, medical advisor, lifestyle guru, entertainer and inspirational life coach. Topics neatly categorized on your left hand side range from aging and blood disorders to organ transplants and wellness. You’ll find doctors discussing eye conditions, bypass surgery and diet; there are boy bands talking about living with diabetes. There are cancer survivors giving others hope. Videos are grouped as either Patients and People, Doctors and Experts or News Reports. A tag cloud displays popular topics. Users can upload videos, comment, and lend support.

Some Questions About ICYou.com
This site would be more effective if it implemented groups, networking, ratings for more videos displaying more squeamish material, perhaps blogs and chat. If such features were added, users would feel more involved in a community, rather than a simple video site.
