Thanks, Mods, for the most detailed response to date to our concerns re the website revamp.
Two questions:
"Not all of our community members read our medical content...".
What percentage of community members do read the medical content?"...just as only a portion of the 23 million people who visit the content areas of our site each year make use of the discussion forums."
What percentage of the 23 million people who visit the content areas do make use of the discussion forums?The extent of what I'm guessing is a large fall in usage of the community pages in recent years is a topic of interest, because, obviously, more community members would get BCO cranking back to the vibrant forum it once was. And the obvious opportunity to get even one percent of those 23 million people from content to community would add 230,000 people to the community. Likely this would crash the site! Could you also ask the site analytics person if those 23 million are unique visitors, whether it includes repeat visitors, or if in fact it's just 23 million page views. Getting to the bottom of these stats would be vital for making a plan, so I hope you can answer here on this topic.
I don't follow the "if it's not broke..." school of thought here, because I know you have a mini crisis and need to move the site in different directions, with different features, and more integration. I know this will also boost your site revenue from ads because there'll be more visitors to much more targeted content. This is an income boost given in this industry.
Many of us here have strayed to other sites servicing bc patients and survivors such as Facebook groups based on cancer type, locality, gender, etc, Chat sites like Wisdo, and info link sites such as Twitter. Many of these people would surely return once BCO got its mojo back.
Re fundraising. Have you really exhausted all Silicon Valley options for a pro bono refurb job?
-
Wildplaces, a few of us have been chiming in for months now. It appears from the Mods reply to you that nothing we've been asking about, questioning, or raising concerns about has been considered or addressed.
Not that I had high expectations...I'm nothing if not pragmatic... but I'm actually kind of stunned at how clear it is that our input has been ignored. I need to think on this before I write any more.
-
Have to say, I nearly never look at the other parts of the site because I don't trust them. Beesie and Barred Owl pointed out glaring errors, but there are other more subtle biases that have disturbed me over the years. The most obvious is the unwavering promotion of mammography and the suppression of information not supportive of its benefit.
At this point, I'll never fill out my diagnosis specifics. The whole process is too creepy.
-
Beesie,
To me there are two issues:
1. The needs of women and men with breast cancer by stage and treatment
2. BCO role as a non profit organisation in 1.
I specifically did not address the medical content - it is poor and outdated - that is all - still I am not sure I found earth shattering info in any of the other organisations.
I guess the Mods' main things they would like to work on:
1. Site information - I imagine that includes medical content
2. Access to a whole range of supporting tools across diagnosis and treatment
3. Members profile and access/storing to/of forums
To me those changes do not seem unreasonble.
I agree with Traveltext in sussing out the reasons behind some of the motivations that could be driving the proposed changes but again, to me, it does not matter - if a new site is more functional and keeps up, the project might be worthwhile. I also agree that trying to get some of the site redesign time donated might be a cost effective idea. Again the 2.5 million is crazy to me.
When I asked for people "to chime in" I wanted to know what if you could have anything you would like from a site like BCO - I did not want specifics of what is currently being done badly - I hoped for broad brushes of what is needed to begin with. I guess that makes me naive or an optimist. But I though we could backtrack a little ...to where it should be/ what it should be like. For example - I would like for us to discuss more the huge financial burden BC brings to one's life.
Outfield 😊 - I think filling in diagnostics has more to do with who you are than with the site. Some people talk others don't. No easy way through this shitty disease..
-
Wildplaces, that wasn't really the meat of what I was saying, and I probably should've just left it off.
The crux is that if I don't trust this site's information to be both as unbiased as possible (admitting that for humans no-bias is impossible) and accurate, why would I ever want to look at their informational content?
-
If bco intends to "manage" me based on my info, I will delete everything in my "info" profile.
-
"I did not want specifics of what is currently being done badly - I hoped for broad brushes of what is needed to begin with."
Wildplaces, I don't think any discussion about the future direction of this site should take place without first fairly and openly assessing what the site currently does well, and what they do poorly.
I don't think we can ignore the "poor and outdated" medical content, because as I read through BCO's list of proposed changes, it appears that the intent of their changes is to expand the prominence of their expert medical content and make this information more directly and privately available to people. If this site truly had "the most up-to-date medical information and research" and if the information really was "presented in an objective and responsible way, with no bias to commercial interests", I might not have the same level of concern about some of the proposed changes (note that the quotes in this sentence come from BCO's Press Kit). As for where BCO stands relative to other information available on the internet, as someone who has regularly included links with my posts for 12 years, I can assure you that better information is available on many other sites on the web. Frankly, better information is available all over the discussion board. There are selected members who regularly post information that is substantially more clear, detailed, current, accurate, understandable, actionable... than what's found on the BCO information pages, on a wide range of topics including most benign conditions (cysts, calcifications, etc.), BIRADs, breast density, LCIS, SNBs, DCIS, breast reconstruction, research summaries, etc... (I've highlighted only the topics that I am most familiar with).
Separate from my concerns about the expanded and private dissemination of medical content that is to varying degrees cursory, inaccurate, outdated and subject to misinterpretation, the proposed changes raise two other broader questions:
1) Can a website whose primary function is to provide huge amounts of information to the mass market also accurately provide highly specific targeted medical information to (thousands of) individuals? The BCO mission, "to help women and their loved ones make sense of the complex medical and personal information about breast health and breast cancer" pretty much covers everyone. The proposed changes suggest however that BCO wants to move towards individualization, i.e. "be able to get you the right information and support at the right time". Can BCO (or any organization, for that matter) do both things effectively? And if the individualization isn't accurate, what is the harm done?
2) Is a large public website an appropriate venue for individuals to be inputting highly personal medical information? Is the firewall between the public and private sections of the site strong enough? Will the tracking and 3rd party advertising targeting that's done on the public site be carried over to private side where people input their most personal information?
As I read BCO's goals for the redesign and rebuilding of this site, it seems to me that the path they are on moves BCO into territory that should be reserved for our medical teams, who deal with us personally and privately on a one-on-one basis.
-
I am still unclear as to what the proposed changes really entail. And I am someone who is of the opinion 'if it's not broken don't fix it'.
I am also unhappy to hear about new sign in securities being put in place. As I always feel that entails more personal contact information having to be given over. Also, tailored interest/treatment linking? (BC wording: " helping structure texts so they can be used to match members to each other and relevant articles." I can find what areas interest me all by myself.
Beesie . Well said....
Also Wildplaces. I don't understand your sentence ...
"I guess the Mods' main things they would like to work on"and you then go on to list a few points.
Why on earth would you be guessing ?
-
"If bco intends to "manage" me based on my info, I will delete everything in my "info" profile."
nihahi, even if you delete your info, BCO still has it stored and available for in-house data mining.
The BCO privacy statement explains this. You can read it HERE.
When you fill out the My Diagnosis section you get this preamble:
Note: Adding a new diagnosis is private. You can update them to public under Settings. Public diagnoses will appear in your Discussion Board signature.
Tell us as much as you can about your diagnosis, and we'll send you content and research updates that are based on your unique situation. We know that you don't get all your diagnosis information at the same time, so you can come back and enter more information as you get it.
When you fill out the My Treatments section you get this preamble:
Tell us about the treatments you may have, the treatments you're undergoing, or treatments you've completed, and we'll send you content and research updates that are based on your unique situation. You can enter and edit as many treatments as you'd like.Note: Adding a new treatment is private. You can update them to public under Settings. Public treatments will appear in your Discussion Board signature.
When you fill out the My Profile section you get this preamble:
You and your doctor will consider personal information such as age, ethnicity, and family history of breast cancer when making test and treatment choices. Tell us this information, and we'll send you content and research updates that are based on your unique situation.Note: Adding Personal Info is private. You can update information to public under Settings. Public information will appear in your Discussion Board signature.
I believe profiles are at the core of BCO and they imply as much. They assume people here discuss mostly by disease stage, type, treatment, etc, and they likely believe this helps the community make comments on posts. They also form a database of diagnoses, treatments that would be valuable for research purposes. Just how, of if ever, this material has been used is a question I hope BCO will answer here, because when they say "information is private" what on earth does that mean? Private to who? The privacy concerns of many here really need to be addressed, since our information is in both the public domain and the BCO domain.
-
I found those so called “content and research updates that are based on your unique situation” were no where close to what was/would have been of interest to me. Stopped checking them after a while when I got notices. BCO couldn’t even get that right. I chose to live flat. BCO finally recognized that some of us take that route after being called out on it. I’m very disappointed that it is put under the Reconstruction heading. Maybe that heading should be changed to cover all choices. Read over it a couple of times and shook my head. Feel there is an underlying push for reconstruction or at least to wear prostheses, IMHO
-
Hi All,
We are doing the best we can with what we have. We have been listening and documenting all your suggestions, concerns, and needs for years. Naturally, we will never make everyone happy with our potential upgrades, and hearing all sides was the original intention of this thread. No changes will be happening quickly -- this is a long (years-long), continuing process of listening, conceptualizing, itemizing, fundraising, budgeting, prioritizing, implementing, user-testing, revising, reconstructing, and hopefully, eventually, finalizing what we can practically and financially do to update and improve our back-of-the-house technologoy and the face of the website and community to make the optimum experience for you, our current members, and just as importantly, our unfortunately inevitable future members. Because we are still in the very early stages of the discussions around this very long process, we simply do not have all the answers yet. When the time comes that we have in hand a vetted, concrete plan for design and/or other changes, and are in need of more input, user testing will be initiated, and your constructive criticism will then be welcomed. Until then, please know we have listened to you, have documented your concerns, and we will continue to discuss them, and reach out if/when we decide a further discussion should ensue. Thank you once again for all of your insight. -
Have you considered that if you add lots graphics and video and that type content that women in rural areas with slow connections may have difficulty or be unable to access the site because pages won't load?
Once you are past treatment do you really want or need the "applicable to you" medical content every time you access discussion boards?
-
I assume you have legal advice. Giving someone tailored recommendations based on diagnosis sounds like practicing medicine.
-
while you say this should not replace your docs, tailoring it in detail will lead to some not going. I know some people don't keep up with their follow up and they are high risk. Being the end all board could create this with some people.
-
Mods, all this fake consultation is a bit wearying, so if this is a long, years-long, continuing process, we can relax and get on with blogging as we please under the regime ancien.
-
Tailored means if you have DCIS you do not necessarily or immediately receive/read information or conversations about Stage III-Stage IV, and vise versa.
If you are pre-menopausal you don't want information about post-menopausal (in our written content or our discussions) to be the first thing that you see. If you say you are on aromatase inhibitors, then perhaps you want to read all information on that subject matter. If you are in the middle of chemotherapy, we could help you best find the threads and the content relevant to getting through chemo vs. those who never chose or were prescribed chemotherapy.
We are talking about helping people sift through the enormous amount of content written by our editorial team, and our members. It can become overwhelming, and difficult to digest when you are a "newbie" or in the thick of a specific situation (e.g. a treatment)..
Tailored means we'd like it if you say you have stage IV breast cancer in your profile, you receive the newest information (e.g. research news, podcasts) on stage IV, as well as the conversations on stage IV. If you are new, and waiting for test results, you find others and information to help guide you through this phase, without reading about all the other stuff that can make it all feel really scary and overwhelming. If you are a caregiver, you receive information specific to your needs on how to best help your loved one.
Tailored does not mean you can't read or respond to the other conversations or read all our other content, rather that we help guide you to content and conversations hopefully most appropriate for your unique situation, in that specific moment, based on what you decide to share in your profile, should you decide to make it "public" (ALL this will be opt-in/opt-out).
Would anyone truly dispute that this is helpful? If so, we'd like to better understand this, so please do post.
No information on the web replaces a physician who knows you, understands the nit and grit of your pathology report, your life situation, your survivorship plan. We could never be that.
Our goal in our eventual new design is to help guide you quickly to what is relevant to your life circumstances, and provide and support you with the the most important questions and information for where you are.
It may be that we shared this idea too early with you, based on some comments, but we were just trying to keep you in the thought loop, and hadn't expected so much friction. So, please do continue to share, as we're documenting the helpful, constructive comments, which are many. Thank you for ALL YOU DO!

Beesie,
What do you think BCO does well at present?
😊🌷🐣
-
No doubt Beesie's writing a reply as we speak, but I think what BCO does best is let the community go for it with a minimal amount of direction, intervention, or censorship.
-
Wildplaces,
First thing, I agree with Traveltext about the community/discussion board. That is by far the strength and uniqueness of this site.
Second thing, they do a great job of getting BCO to almost always show up first, and often second and third.... on internet searches. If you are googling anything to do with breast cancer, it's virtually impossible to not find and click on a BCO link. No surprise then that they get 23 million visitors to the site every year.
Third thing, their information pages are quite thorough, covering most topics relevant to those diagnosed with breast cancer. Unfortunately, the organization of topics is confusing (even after all these years, it always takes me several tries to find the topic I'm looking for) and the point has been made the poor/outdated quality of the content.
Considering how prominent BCO is in Google searches, if they were to put their efforts into fixing the medical content and the organization of their information pages, they could be a truly excellent site, and could probably much better hold on to many more of those 23 million annual visitors.
From their recent posts, it's clear that BCO are frustrated with the input they've received from many of us, likely because it's been critical and not fully supportive of their future direction. Given this response, I will bow out of this discussion.
And the Mods breathe a sigh of relief!
-
It may be interesting to the Mods to note just how many have decided to delete their treatments at the ends of their posts. I believe this has happened because of fears of privacy issues.....
I for one need to know the current treatments posters are undergoing. If I don't see it, how do I know who I'm talking to and if they can help me with my treatments or if I can help them?
Also, the diagnoses in the posts lets us all know who is posting and on what threads. I am not stage IV (thank God) but if you have no diagnoses entered, you could post anywhere. Stage IV posters could be conversing with someone who has DISCS and think they're both at the same stage. I have occasionally posted on Stage IV but my diagnoses is there for all to see and stage IV's can tell me not to post if they wish, and I don't.
Without the diagnoses signature it's confusing at best, not very appropriate at worst.
-
I am bowing out as well, not that I was here that long.
I have a fundamental disagreement with making information more available to people when the information is biased and unreliable. This plan is self-serving, and shows a lack of self-awareness.
-
"It may be that we shared this idea too early with you, based on some comments, but we were just trying to keep you in the thought loop, and hadn't expected so much friction. So, please do continue to share, as we're documenting the helpful, constructive comments, which are many."
Sorry to hear the Mods are offended by friction they didn't expect...and feel they "shared too early".
When you ask for input, you must allow yourself to hear all sides. When you are in the early stages of "revision" is exactly the RIGHT time to share ideas and hear opposing voices. Not when the deed has been done beyond fixing.
Mods...your plans may be a good starting point for people who come to this site fresh off a dx, who may be confused, or overwhelmed. It becomes less relevant and more "big brother-ish" to those of us who have moved through the tx ranks, and stay on the discussion threads to help those who are still finding their way through the dark days. Are your plans to "tailor" our interactions strictly info/article based, or will you be also selecting the discussion threads you want people to see?
Since the plan is to "direct" people to information based on dx, tx, etc...I am very interested in hearing your plans for the frequent new members who are as yet undiagnosed, and often not yet in the process of being dx'd, but come to the discussion boards convinced that they have IBC? What about the members who refuse to be dx'd for years? If they have no info to fill a profile, how will you manage them?
-
Outfield, can you be more specific on how you find our information biased and unreliable? We know we have outdated content, but can you be more specific?
Please note, we are not frustrated with all the posts, and welcome a discussion.
-
Beesie, Indeed the organization of the topics is confusing. Part of the update is addressing just these things -- the organization and how the content is served will completely change, as well, we will be "touching" each page when the content is transferred to the new CMS, and we'll be reviewing each piece to ensure it's up to date, and there's nothing lacking in the info. Basically, most of the information will be "refreshed" but that takes time on a site with 8000 pages (and a small editorial team).
"Considering how prominent BCO is in Google searches, if they were to put their efforts into fixing the medical content and the organization of their information pages, they could be a truly excellent site, and could probably much better hold on to many more of those 23 million annual visitors."
Yes, exactly. This is precisely what the upgrade is about, in addition to other things including keeping up with outdated technology.
Outfield: "I have a fundamental disagreement with making information more available to people when the information is biased and unreliable. This plan is self-serving, and shows a lack of self-awareness."
Can you say a bit more about this, and how you feel our content is biased and unreliable. Do you mean the content that we curate with our editorial team, or the discussions here in the community?
Please note that we aren't frustrated with a discussion, in general, at all.
-
Nihahi "Since the plan is to "direct" people to information based on dx, tx, etc...I am very interested in hearing your plans for the frequent new members who are as yet undiagnosed, and often not yet in the process of being dx'd, but come to the discussion boards convinced that they have IBC? What about the members who refuse to be dx'd for years? If they have no info to fill a profile, how will you manage them?"
Really great questions. We are thinking upon registration, that people will identify where they are (worried about breast cancer, dx'd with breast cancer, a caregiver, etc.) and based on this, they will receive different profile options.
As for the members who refuse to be dx'd, we continue to create content that we hope will help address the barriers to getting the testing, and the psychology for why they stay.
-
I, too, am bowing out of the debate, because I can't get answers to my questions and because I really don't feel anything I say will make any difference. Besides, I'm sure management will do a reasonable job with the revamp, and I look forward to new features that bring more people, who will continue to be well served by community members and the mods.
-
Ms. Wohl, Melissa, and BCO board. I have continued to read this thread and am growing increasingly concerned about how disconnected BCO appears to its members. I have read your posts critical of what appears to you as "friction" when we try to address concerns and I feel devalued. I have read your posts asking us for our input, then later stating that you gave us the information too early. You ask us for funding, but won't state how you plan to spend $2.5 million (not sure how you could come up with that figure if you didn't have an idea or plan on what was going to be done). BCO keeps saying it plans to target or tailor to the information and its marketing to the diagnoses of its members when many of us are removing our diagnoses or specifics from our profiles because we are concerned about our privacy. The Outbrain fiasco last year demonstrated how upset many were with targeted information such as what you propose now--even if it did pertain to their diagnoses--but you don't seem to want us to be involved in this commenting about your remodeling of the website. You ask why we wouldn't want your "tailored" information and don't recognize our desire for privacy or from information overload. BCO indicates it wants to be a used by members as a place to compile their medical information when most of us would never trust BCO to do that. BCO indicates it wants to be the provider of medical information and many have indicated it could never replace or supersede the in-person, individualized information we receive from our medical providers. You ask how to better serve those new to the BCO site but then don't seem to want to hear about our experience with the website. Many have pointed out medical misinformation or outdated information and BCO indicates it wants to target more of this same information to more of us. We ask for data to support your plans and seldom get responses. Even simple corrections such as correcting the bloated, non-current, members, forums, and topics numbers used under the blue box area in the upper left of the threads pages, or removing the over-large cell phone picture which requires scrolling down on the login page, (totally unrelated to logging in on that page with a laptop) don't get done and now BCO wants us to trust you to make major changes without input.
I value the members of the BCO threads and return to glean information from them and "help" others new to their diagnoses in areas where I can share my experiences. I see providing that platform for sharing on a secure website as BCO's major mission, leaving me wondering why BCO has such a seemingly grandiose vision of being a targeted marketing medical information provider, personal medical records data warehouse, and being the end-all, be-all to everyone including those new to the site. Perhaps the BCO board and management needs to step away for a time, re-envision its mission, vision and values, and realize that to be a leader in any field, you must have followers to whom you can sell your ideas. I'll be waiting for you.
-
Beesie,
Please do not bow out - your stuff is great.
I have read some of side posts - and they are quite a few of them.
Call me an eternal optimist but I think the Mods responses have been a lot better than over the horrid October campaign. It may not feel like enough but it's a start.
I am sure everyone here values your input! I do.
(Your perspective and mine may be a little different but I am willing to listen and learn. In fact I am not even sure our perspectives are different - I think we have different ways of bringing something to the table.)
Outfield,
Surely if one walked away from any clinical practice where one disagrees - we would both have to find something else to do for a living. I agree with you on mammograms and quite likely on a few other things beside that. In Australia the lack of support for MRI is a financial decision. It's about money. Women should be told and be given options.
Traveltext,
You are an excellent advocate for men with breast cancer.
And I very much doubt you are the type who bows out of anything - but we do not know each other that well so it's a guess at best.
Mods,
As long as the sparks are controlled it means we all give a Sh.t.
It's a good thing, and the time everyone invests in trying to brings this to BCO is the simplest and most honest expression that the site is valued.
😊🌷🐣
-
Wildplaces, I'm just withdrawing from discussion on the website revamp, that's all. I'm staying in the community to help and/or be helped.
-
I’ve been lurking here as time goes by. People who are far better with words than me have spoken. And are withdrawing from this thread.
Can’t say I blame them.
The Powers That Be at BCO are going to do what they want, how they want, when they want. No matter what themembers say.
