We are all aware Google is a giant in internet technologies, but not many know that google is looking into many other technologies to make life easy in the future. We have seen Google funding researches into driverless cars, robotics e.t.c

Now the technology giant has said it will be venturing into providing video chat services between doctors and people searching for diagnosis on the internet. This service – already being tested – will help thousands avoid misdiagnosing themselves. Google has said it will pay for the video chat services during the trial, but when it does go live patients, will have to pay for their appointments.

This can be a very important and beneficial service, as many people panic themselves by searching for symptoms on the internet, sometimes misdiagnosing and even self prescribing the wrong medicine.  Not to mention it might turn out cheaper for the patients than actually going to a clinic.
