So when a startup said technology would help the nonprofit seven-hospital chain slash death rates by allowing specialists to monitor patients 24/7, they were interested. And it worked: Mortality fell 27% initially, and Sentara thinks the new system has saved almost 500 lives. Now the e-ICU concept is spreading. More than 100 U.S. hospitals have e-ICUs, and the company that makes the technology went public in April.

The plane maker is among a small but growing group of large nontech companies -- such as Walt Disney, General Motors, and McDonald's -- embracing the power of blogging. That means Boeing has learned to cede some control and expose itself to stinging criticism in exchange for a potentially more constructive dialogue with the public, customers, and employees Thu, 11 May 2006 17:00:00 -0400 10:25 Boeing, BusinessWeek, Web Smart, aerospace, aviation, blogs, blogging, Web logs http://www.businessweek.com/mediacenter/qt/podcasts/websmart/websmart_05_11_06.mp3
