5. What is Social Media? It’s a conversation, not a lecture It’s an extension of everyday interaction It’s group driven, not top-down It’s messy, disorganized & hard to control It’s a tool, not an end-point It’s where our customers spend their time http://ebennett.org/fall-09-presentation/
6. “ To find something comparable, you have to go back 500 years to the printing press, the birth of mass media – which, incidentally, is what really destroyed the old world of kings and aristocracies. Technology is shifting power away from the editors, the publishers, the establishment, the media elite. Now it’s the people who are taking control.” – Rupert Murdoch

We asked respondents what concerns they have about using social media…
Respondents were mostly concerned about privacy, both from patients and their families and from random people on the web. I hear this quite a bit. In fact, I heard it from the President of a major professional society – not AAHMP – another one that GeriPal cares about. I hear it from my wife, who never attaches her name to her comments on GeriPal. Here’s the deal. The only way to be completely safe is to be anonymous. If you post anonymously, at least you are contributing to the palliative care social media community. But if you put your name out there it adds legitimacy to your statements because (1) you are not just some random person, you are a person with a name, and (2) you can be held accountable for what you say. Furthermore, publishing your name lets other readers know who is in the community – it’s not just some anonymous commenter, it’s someone this blogger might actually get to meet, at a meeting like this.
