So, for those members currently active on Twitter, and there may have been a few new converts since the Winnipeg conference, there's been an interesting conversation going on, post-conference, about the role of social media and the association.  You can get a sense of that conversation here.

Thing is, and I hope Dean, Karen, Dan, Jeff et al. will agree, Twitter sucks for carrying on a conversation.

So, being the guy that keeps telling everyone else to use this site more interactively, I'm putting this out there and hoping a conversation might ensue.  This is a bit of an experiment.  Will it work?  What are the barriers?  What can the association do to better enable the conversation to happen?

It's been proposed that we establish a Social Media Interest Group.  I think the idea has legs.  What next?  We probably all have access to Skype.  I have access to the Adobe Connect platform through the Centre for Global eHealth Innovation.  We have the tools.  Let's connect.

Now discuss.
