So Twitter recently announced that it now has a video feature (up to 30 seconds). See this post.
I wonder how we can use such an opportunity in medicine and medical education, Will short snippets or "nuggets" of information now be sent via Twitter from one doctor to another? Interesting to see what will come of this. The hope would be that health care professionals would use it for dissemination of information that IS allowed in the public space, and not to violate privacy laws.
For those interested in learning more about social media within medicine, here is a nice review from JMIR on the topic, published within the last year. The enhancement of such services is a great example of how innovation in technology has the potential to improve communication and education.
