description This article attempts to show evidence of the emergence of two distinct kinds of information as a result of information and communication technologies: health information and medical information. While it is gradually gaining credence in the press, this distinction is extremely significant on the Internet. Notably, those two kinds of information refer to new uses of health information, as well as forms of industrialisation of that information that has been until now relatively public and scientific. The article is based on analysis of the discussion  forum of a French language site, Doctissimo (www.doctissimo.fr), as well as on semi-structured interviews with Internet users and physicians.
