This is an open letter to Organized Wisdom, and more specifically to Alana and other nurses who have been "profiled" without their knowledge.

Like you, I was profiled on Organized Wisdom and my tweets being "harvested" and added to their index. When displayed in their index, my name, my photo and drug advertising were displayed prominently.

So, a few questions.

1. Did you know you were profiled on Organized Wisdom?

2. Do you consent to your name/likeness being used to promote their site? Are you OK with them selling you as an "expert"

3. Do you consent to your tweet streams, being harvested, unfiltered and added to an organization that chiefly sells drug advertising? It implies your endorsement.

4. Did you know, once submitted, sites are copied, plagiarized and their copyrights infringed upon.

5. Did you know, that as a "curator" you receive no compensation, even though Organized Wisdom makes money hand over fist from drug advertising. Can you say exploitation?

Suture for a Living: More #OrganizedWisdom Un-Fair Play, Ramona L Bates, MD

You may recall that last year I wrote regarding the un-fair use of medical bloggers post and twitter feeds:

Fellow bloggers do you remember Wellsphere? Well, the latest “thief” of our information using our reputations and twitter feeds in a similar way is Organized Wisdom. Check out @laikas recent blog post on the topic: Expert Curators, WisdomCards & The True Wisdom of @organizedwisdom

Organized Wisdom (http://organizedwisdom.com and @organizedwisdom on Twitter) is a 3-4 year old company that uses a similar approach to filter useful health information out of the daily junk. ……

Part of the problem may be that Organized Wisdom doesn’t only share links from “Health Centers”, but also from Wellness Centers (Aging, Diet, Exercise & Fitness etc) and Living Centers (Beauty, Cooking, Environment). Apparently one card can have information for 2 or 3 centers (diabetes and multivitamins for example)

I feel used.

Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation - About Pediatric AIDS

About Pediatric HIV and AIDS
Answers to the most frequently asked questions about pediatric HIV and AIDS.

What is HIV?
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV can be transmitted during sexual intercourse, pregnancy (i.e., from mother to fetus), childbirth, breastfeeding, and other forms of exposure to bodily fluids that carry the virus. When the virus enters the body, it injects itself into vital immune cells called CD4 cells. In the absence of treatment, HIV continues to replicate itself within the body, eventually leading to severe immunodeficiency, chronic illness, and death.

What is AIDS?
AIDS represents an advanced stage of HIV infection. In most cases, a person living with HIV eventually develops AIDS. AIDS is characterized by severely diminished immune system function, where the body is highly vulnerable to infections and cancers that are typically fought off by a healthy immune system. As defined by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a person has AIDS when HIV has drastically reduced his or her CD4 cell count, or when a person living with HIV is diagnosed with at least one opportunistic infection (i.e., an infection that does not normally occur in someone with a healthy immune system).

#Health Guides, Why is Your Profile Unclaimed? And do you Endorse Abilify For Bipolar Women? ? - #OrganizedWisdom #endtofarms

Organized Wisdom?

How many other expert profiles are "unclaimed" out of 5700?

How many of your "Touted" experts have no idea, they are being used?

As a Registered Nurse, Business Owner and Licensed Nurse, I'd strongly object to a website profiling me, then submitting my name, picture and likeness to promote their site.

It is especially misleading for Organized Wisdom to do this since it implies that their curators endorse the links, Drug Advertising and consumer advocacy mission the site claims to be on.

Notify your curators that they are profiled!!!!!
