INTRO:Thank you (Amy). Good afternoon, everyone. I am honored to be here and I am very excited to have the opportunity to talk about using social media for cancer prevention and control.Before I begin, I thought I should tell you something about myself that I wouldnât normally reveal in this kind of setting. That is that:
I was born in 1972. I tell you this because I think it is important that you know that like many of you, I did not grow up with this technology. I lived 18 years of my life without a computer, 23 without the internet, 26 years of my life without a cell phone, and 35 years of my life without a Facebook page.
Social media is new. It is new to you, it is also new to me, and it is in a constant state of change and evolution. In fact what I tell you today, will be completely different a year from now, perhaps even a month from now. New applications are being developed daily and failing daily. We are being bombarded with online informaiton updates from all sectors of society including news, entertainment, business. And if you arenât using twitter and facebook, there is somebody out there trying to convince you that you shouldâŠ. So is social media just hype or is there true value in these new technologies? Iâm here to tell you itâs a bit of both. There is no doubt that some of what is out there but maybe not so useful. But no one can deny that the information landscape is changing our culture and our society, and social media is playing a major role in this evolution. Social media should be thought of as a new tool in the health communications toolbox. These technologies are relatively inexpensive, (often free), easy to use and requires no special technology skills. It can improve communication and collaboration internally, it can be used to build support networks and communities, and connect with hard to reach populations. These tools can be used not only to push information from our organizations out to our populations quickly and easily, but it can be also used to gather consumer input and feedback. Most importantly social media can be very effective means to engage consumers in the creation of a message, and can be used as a platform for message delivery through natural peer networks ultimately establishing social norms and promoting healthier behaviors.Letâs take a moment and take a quick poll⊠how many of you have a facebook page, or have started using social media in your personal lives. Whenever I ask this question, I always follow it up with why⊠most of the time I hear many concerns about âŠ.perhaps your are feeling reluctant to sign on because you feel like its only for the younger generation, or you are concerned about your personal privacy, that you really have no time to start updating your status or really. for many it might be that you are just not interested in connecting and reconnecting with people in the online environment. So I want to reassure you all that the goal of my talk today is not to convince you that you should seek out your high school sweetheart on facebook or that you should start tweeting about what you had for breakfast.
So is social media just hype or is there true value in these new technologies? Iâm here to tell you itâs a bit of both. There is no doubt that some of what is out there but maybe not so useful. But no one can deny that the information landscape is changing our culture and our society, and social media is playing a major role in this evolution. There was an article published (online of cours) recently about 5 ways that social media is changing our lives. s a social media consultant and blogger, recently published a list of 5 ways social media is changing our lives. He said that social media is changing:where we get our news..
My goal is to start a conversation about how you might be able to use these technologies to reach out to your patients, consumers and communities, as well as enhance collaboration within your organizations.
So today I wanted to give you an overview of web 2.0 and social media, and talk about how some of the technologies are being used, and could be used to engage consumers and enhance collaborations.
so letâs take a step back and start by talking about what we mean by web 2.0?
Letâs look back 15 years, to1994, when we were introduced to the world wide web. What a fantastic innovation.An individual, sitting at a computer was able to get online, go to a website and retrieve some information. We could forward the information by copying and pasting a url into an email, or print the website and pass it along. The websites were created by people who had programming expertise and training, had to be uploaded to a server, and were generally pretty static.
Then something happened. Blogs and wikis came along and we were able to not only read the informaiton but we could write and contribute ourselves.
Then pretty soon, there were millions of people writing, creating, sharing informaiton online. And now they no longer have to be at a desk, they can use cellphones and laptops and contribute from where ever they are.
So basically, where web 1.0 was author generated, static, organization driven. And it was about information retrieval.
Web 2.0 was is about pulling information. It is user generated, participatory, community driven and about informaiton creation.
Web 2.0 is all the websites out there that get their value from the actions of users.
Who are those users?Letâs look at who is online⊠79% of all American adults: 93% of 18-29 year olds, 43% of those 65 and older; 62% of people making less than $30,000/year, and 95% of those making over $75k.

In 2000, 25% had looked for health info onlineIn 2009, 61% of people had looked for health info online. This is up from 25% in 2000. Of those 61%, almost 2/3rds (60%) are are using social media to find health inforamtion.
And what are these consumers using to find information and to connect? BlogsWikisSocial networksMedia sharing sitesAt work:slideshare
In addition to these types of technologies, new applications and are being developed constantly. There are applications that can help you âŠ.
So today Iâm going to concentrate on the top 4 technologies:
Starting with blogs⊠A blog is a website that is in the form of an online journal, with new entries appearing in reverse chronological order. Anyone can create a blog. They can be used to post events and news, they can be sent out as newsletters, personal diaries, or can be the platform for a website. For example, Advantages:Can feed into email People can subscribe to categories⊠Anyone can contributeChallenges:
Here is an example of a typical blog. The apha get ready blog⊠News and informaiton about the flu. Continous updates. Blogs can also have multiple authors.
Blogs are also allow for comments, and so they are a good place to post information and gather feedback and input.
The blog for a cure website is a place where individuals can set up their own personal blog and tell their story.
One of the advantages of a blog is RSS.
Rss allows an individual to subscribe to a blog either through rss or they can receive email updates or digests. It also allows you to embed your blog in your website. So it is a great platform to create a news or events feed, or even maintain updated content on your website without a webmaster.
Wikis: wikis are collaborative websites that can be directly edited by multiple people who are given access to it
Wikipedia is of course the most popular wiki site. Somewhat controversial in that anyone can go in, click edit, and revise the content in an entry. The idea of course is that knowledge of many is more powerful than knowledge of a few.
Medpedia. Ther are other websites similar to wikpedia that are more specialized. Medpedia is an online medical encyclopedia. This resource allows only vetted experts to contribute content and the articles are reviewed for accuracy.
There are many other wikis out there. Here is an example called wiki cancer. The is a good example of a site that is consumer driven and has more of an open editing policy.
Wikis are great tools if you want to build a website quickly, and have multiple authors contribute. For example, perhaps you would like to build a project website, that would allow uploading photos and other multimedia, as well as be edited by multiple people. A wiki would be a great tool for thatâŠ.
What are social network sites?Why are they so popular?Who are using social network sites?
As of August 2009, FB most popular SNS for adults (18+) Facebook â 73%Myspace â 48%Linked In â 14%10-12 % other
Letâs take a moment to talk about twitter⊠2 years ago, nobody had heard of twitter. Now it is a key component of any social media presence. One in 5 people use twitter. I will freely admit, it has taken me a while to figure out the value of twitter. I mean who really cares what everyone is doing every minute of the day. But as twitter evolves so have its users. Facebook/Myspace v, twitter⊠=visual/audio platformsTwitter = 140 charactersThe value of twitter is threefold:What can you do with twitter? 1. provide information and tips 2. provide motivational support (qwitter)

Building motivational support
These technologies are excellent tools to be able to push out informaiton to our constituents. But what makes these technologies really powerful is the ability to extend our reach using natural peer networks. I want what my friends want- I like what my friends like--I do what my friends do The consumers create and distribute the messenges.

So have I convinced you???Easy right?Nothing of course is ever as easy as it sounds. Over the past 2 years I have been working with health departments to explore ways that web 2.0 can be used in their work. We have explored using blogs and wikis for internal communications, and have also been looking into wyas to use social networking and other tools to reach their communities When we began the project our intent was to train the staff and help implement specific projects, but we quickly learned that using web 2.0 technologies was a continually evolving process that required a great deal of flexibility, patience and support. Several issues quickly emerged that we needed to address:Technology â firewallsPrivacy and security, official voice of the organization, Resources. â training staff, maintaining a presence⊠Engagement# of followers and friends # of posts, responses, commentsReach new friends, followers, re-tweets network data referrals to practiceoutcomespatient referrals # of screeningsonline questionnaires
What now? Your convinced? So now what⊠Start small, identify your goals, and create an appropriate technology to accomplish those goals. Allow yourself to fail and try something new. Most importantly get your feet wet⊠start listening to others observe what they are doing and then when youâre ready you can join the conversation.
