While I doubt anyone would check a web site for wait times for an extreme emergency, I can tell you this sounds like a fabulous idea if you feel you need to visit the ER for a non-emergency. It's good to see healthcare embracing this level of customer service -- perhaps the next evolution of this might be some sort of online pre-registration.
Imagine entering your basic information -- even if it's just your name, medical problem and perhaps an estimate of how many minutes you might be away -- into the site. This might allow whomever is updating the wait time to have some idea as to what cases will soon be appearing and plan ahead accordingly.
