How to use Twitter to post updates from #ACAAI meeting

See examples of best practice by  @MatthewBowdish and @DrAnneEllis posted here: http://allergynotes.blogspot.com/search/label/ACAAI (tweets were summarized in a series of blog posts by me). For example, the tweets from 2012 AAAAI meeting reached more than 250,000 people.

I would strongly encourage you to post updates on Twitter from the CME conferences that you are planning to attend in the future. Here is how to do it: Twitter for Physicians: How to use Twitter to keep track of the latest news and scientific meetings, and share information with colleagues and patients.
