Getting volunteers involved
 Adds  legitimacy to social media venture
 Presentation to Associate Editors at the AACC
  Annual Meeting to encourage social media use
 Many had problems understanding and adopting
  social media
“It is very easy to invent reasons for not using Facebook,
Twitter or LinkedIn, and to build a case against the social
media based on unfounded allegations,” states Peggy
McKee, who recruits laboratory personnel in the U.S.
Nevertheless, the future is not difficult to predict. The
telephone and the Internet are now taken for granted; it is
only a matter of time before the social media will also take
their rightful place in the office and the laboratory.
