.md launches for medical community

MaxMD, the official provider of .md domain names in more than 90 countries worldwide, this week announced the official launch of both the .md domain and what the company describes as a "first-of-its-kind advisory board that will tackle some of the most challenging internet issues affecting physicians and their relationships with patients such as the accessibility and accuracy of medical information." The .md domain allows physicians, healthcare providers and medical organizations to create personalized, permanent and portable identities online, be located quickly by patients using the Internet, and ultimately enhance patient care and communication.
