101 Scientific Friends - Building Twitter Networks 2009

Posted Jan 07 2009 4:37pm

David Bradley - writer and blogger over at Sciencebase.com - is ringing in the New Year by listing more than 100 of his most important Twitter friends - his twitterati. In case you don't know, Twitter is the hottest social media tool to emerge in 2008. It's a cool, easy microblogging tool and a handy way to stay in touch with colleagues and fellow researchers around the world.

You are advised to check out Twitter by seeing OpenMedicine's feed. Here is my feed and the Twitter account for one of our editors, Dr. Anita Palepu. You can build a network of friends quickly (and get some ideas from the many scientists listed from Bradley's blog).

Happy new year ~!
