Abstract
We report and discuss on the basic stages of development of a Web application designed to support an ubiquitous and altruistic health application based on the Web 2.0 paradigm. Our starting idea is that several technological tools are mature enough to enable such class of applications. In particular, we present the main features of our system, the most prominent, even if preliminary, result is a new approach to filtering and discovery, to associate the most appropriate doctor to a patient in the case of an emergency.
