- He designed the HyperInfo Knowledge Power Centre web site with an emphasis on the knowledge content in simple and consistent manner rather than pretty graphics. The web site uses an electronic commerce technology from First VirtualTM Internet Payment System for convenience, ease and security. The credit card information is NEVER sent over the Internet where it could be intercepted by strangers! HyperInfo Knowledge Power Centre allows the visitors to immediately read and access high-quality on-line knowledge contents at nominal cost with a single VirtualPINsm instead of a credit card number, expiration date, name, etc. The use of knowledge packets with high signal-to-noise ratio represents exceptionally creative manner of electronic publishing, thus making a significant impact on the development of Canada's Information Highway.
- He has also initiated a bilingual MediCanada Choose-Your-Physician service on the World-Wide Web. A visitor will select the criteria, and an intelligent system will generate a list of relevant physicians from a value-added database. Recent health care reform proposals by some provincial governments to force their residents to sign a contract with 1 (one) family doctor highlights the need for a service that helps identify a suitable physician.
