#MedEd 100% agree. I share relevant content and RT content that I wasn't fast enough to share or content from other concurrent sessions. It becomes a log for me to refer back to later.
A1: Very timely since I’m going to the #FMEC_2017 conference tomorrow! Usually live tweet sessions but I like it when a conversation starts. I 1st started tweeting at conferences! #MedEd
T1: Love to tweet at conferences! Connect with old and new twitter followers. Share info from sessions. Engage as part of conference! #MedEd@MedEdChat@GLBDallaghan
It was an honor to host Roy Williams for Medicine Grand Rounds today! A leadership lecture for #meded. Here pictured with Dr. Falk, Kristine Falk & Dr. Greganti. #trainwiththebest#gotarheels
T1a I take notes for notes (in @Evernote) so I can search them later. I live tweet to amplify the work of the presenters for the benefit of the field. Knowledge for evenyone! #MedEd

It is definitely a skill to reduce the concepts in a lecture to one or more 140 character tweets.
Even more of a skill to use 140 characters when you have liberty to use more. #meded
I have also found that great plenary=slow tweet stream; boring or average plenary=robust and interesting tweet stream. This was borne out at the recent #aamc17 meeting; tweet stream was slowest during the great doc stories on last day. #meded
But your perspective for in the room is skewed.... Imagine being a follower of any one tweeter. #meded have to love the term 'viral' for that very reason!
Back in '87 we proved that learners spent most of their dedicated #meded time searching for something to distract them from learning. (Norman et al., 1987)
Tough to multitask, esp when I am following a great talk. When the talk isn't great, engaging my mind elsewhere (e.g, #SoMe) keeps me focused on the topic, if not the talk. #meded
HUGE thanks to everyone at the Section of Teachers’ dinner donating! YOU are helping us further family medicine education and shape the future of primary care in Canada! #familymedicine#medschool#MedEd
T2 You have to follow the #SoMe at the meetings you attend.
Otherwise the kids in the back of the class are talking and you don't get to hear what they're saying.

This is essential. Although sometimes the hashtags get changed because they are co-opted by another meeting at the same time that impossibly has the same acronym. #meded
I've always planned to go back and compile a "best of" tweet collection from each conference, but you know what happens... life, limited time, & shiny new things to tweet about 😂 #Meded
T2: I follow conferences I am at and conferences I can't attend! Beauty of #SoMe. I have not yet attended #ICRE17 but I have certainly followed along and learned! @drjfrank@sherbino#MedEd

T2 I almost always want to attend more than one session at a time, so I follow the hashtag to try and get the highlights from the sessions I can't attend in person. #meded
If u use your "likes" judiciously, then you are compiling the 'best of' collection as you go along. I find that the way I like things is very different on Twitter (collation of content) than Facebook (relational liking) #meded

#MedEd Brevity was always a benefit & a necessity with #140CharacterClub@Twitter, now chances are you'll miss something while typing your @Twitter dissertation during a good talk! Like I'm missing something now!
T1: this has lessened FOMO (fear of missing out) anxiety. I don't have to feel like I am missing anything, can always check colleague's tweets on a topic I didn't get to attend. #meded
I remember when the Society of Hospital Medicine and the HistoryMakers (youth religious) conference both (inadvertently?) shared the #HM13 hashtag at the same time.
Hilarity ensured.

T3a #meded I use Symplur for conferences to compile all of the Tweets. For my summary, I go back through what I tweeted on my feed. Helps to see others' comments as well
T3: Being able to search for past tweets comes in handy when I remember the point or quote and want to figure out who it was attributed to. Important to give credit where it's due! #meded
Twitter is still (curiously) unique enough that it can be something you have "in common".
Wouldn't be the same to walk up to someone and say, "Hey, you and I both have cell phones!"
