I’ve been trying to discover who from the healthosphere is using Twitter. I’ve been using Twitter Search, Twellow (see their Pulbic Health & Safety sub-category), and noting commenters on health blogs, to locate the prolific Twits. I’ve found TweetDeck to be useful for creating groups, so I’m personally watching what all these people have to say there. Unfortunately, TweetDeck is a custom solution, but I can at least share my list here.

Thanks for the tweeple to follow! I just started getting the hang of twitter, and this helps me find other public health people.
