Dr. Internet at your service

I'll be the first to admit it. Right or wrong, when a health problems first pop up I turn to Dr. Internet for an early diagnoses. We all know the internet is not a doctor and we shouldn't try to diagnose ourselves. But this article says that patients aren't the only ones googling their symptoms.
Do you "play doctor" with your health on the internet? Do you think the information is helpful or hurtful?
