On the second day of Christmas my true love sent to me, two Twitter doves…
On day two of our 12 Days of Christmas Posts we turn to Twitter. What would our year have looked like without Twitter? Our version of an alternate ending to It’s a Wonderful Life? Thankfully, our health information technology universe is just as it is, in part due to this list of great Tweeters. They kept us informed, engaged, and often amused throughout the year.
#Hashtags
This year we continued to followed the hashtag. From conferences to HIT topics, we were following and highlighting the tweeters and what they were saying. Our regular post on www.HIEAnswers.net keeps you updated on trending hashtags to follow and Tweet Chats to consider.
Our newest “This Week in #HealthIT” debuted this year. We are using Storify to collect all the highlights for each week and share with our followers. Follow us on Storify and share our stories.
Twitter Lists
Are you subscribed to any Twitter lists? Here are some worthy of a mention; @HCNowRadio station favorites, @logtrust Big data players, @MMaxwellStroud Talking About HIMSS16 (this one is going to get big!), @EdBennett US-Hospitals, @RetailMartech Analytic Warriors, and @JennDennard #HealthITchicks.
Follow me where I go…
And as another song goes, You are nobody til somebody follows you… (Or the current interpretation of the song!). To all our loyal followers, we would be nothing without your retweets and mentions. Here are just a few we can always count on for sure that’s what followers are for (is that a song too?) – Justin Barnes @HITAdvisor, Mandi Bishop @MandiBPro, Gregg Masters @2healthguru, Joe Lavelle @Resultant, Joy Rios @askJoyRios, Marty Mercer @martymercer, and Sarianne Gruber @subtleimpact.
And finally, follow us as we go through 2016 talking about health information technology and our own personal passions…
