Twitter is only as valuable as your network. To begin finding rheumatology-related people and organizations on Twitter, visit http://search.twitter.com and search for mentions of rheumatology keywords—you are sure to find ongoing relevant conversations. The number sign, or hashtag, is used on Twitter to convey the writer’s subject matter so it can be indexed and accessed in other users’ feeds. Tweets about the 2010 annual meeting sent by the ACR and other users should contain the official conference hashtag—#ACR2010. A search on Twitter for the term #ACR2010 will display recent tweets that reference the annual meeting.
Make sure you take advantage of the new social media networking opportunities offered in and around the 2010 annual meeting to network with colleagues before, during, and after the annual meeting and to stay up to date on important ACR news throughout the year.
