Social media can be defined as a set of web-based and mobile technologies that allow people to monitor, create, share or manipulate text, audio, photos or video, with others.

Why consider social media?
Stay informed Communicate (engage) with peers and patients Disseminate information Advocate for/against something Because if you decide not to use social media, your
decision should be based on sound knowledge about what you are choosing not to use
12
Why consider social media II(graduate class)
For public health purposes (e.g. tracking epidemics or spread of new pathogens)
As learning tools in medical education Showing your clinical technique on YouTube To deliver clinical care!!!

Why I tweet (by a respirologist)
… an increasing number of organizations now use twitter as a way of disseminating new information they have published. A concrete example; I learnt that the NICE quality standards for COPD had been published because a link to them was tweeted by the Harefield Medical Library.
By following interesting people you can find out what they’re thinking. You can also engage them in conversation which leads to the second reason to join in – like any social media Twitter is dependent on the quality of its participants – the more sensible people engage with it the better it becomes.

Nick Hopkinson @COPDdoc @rcpsych @RCPLondon What do you think of sneaky @sainsburys
&@UKTesco tobacco displays concealing health warnings?copddoclondon.blogspot.co.uk/#!/2013/03/sai…
The RCP @RCPLondon @COPDdoc @rcpsych @sainsburys@UKTesco Thanks Nick, these
displays are a concern - yet another reason for introduction of standardised packs

Social Media and Publishing
…based on the incredible popularity and success of our monthly podcasts … we have decided to further our social media efforts by enlisting the expertise of Christopher L. Carroll, MD, FCCP, and Deep Ramachandran, MBBS. Drs Carroll and Ramachandran have already begun to stir additional engagement in CHEST by posting comments and posing questions on the Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/accpchest) and Twitter (https://twitter.com/accpchest) pages of the American College of Chest Physicians, and we look forward to forging new conversations around the science of chest medicine in the social environment.
Peer review is, after all, inherently social, and we aim to extend this value even after publication.

Advice from a nurse (+ expert)
I think there are too many people on the Web offering advice to you on how to use social media. Most of this advice is just regurgitated advice from people you may never have heard of before, …
You really don’t need “How To” tips on blogging or Twitter. Oh, I’m confident that you’ll be told otherwise – but those folks, well-intentioned as they may be, don’t understand that you’re smarter than that.
You’re bright – you got through organic chemistry and medical school and years of residency.
Rather than learn bad habits from the get-go, take advantage of your lack of experience. It’s okay to make mistakes that don’t cause harm and violate the privacy and dignity of others.
