“Ed Bennet, hospital web manager at the University of Maryland Medical System has kept a running list of social media accounts managed by U.S. hospitals for some time now-his most recent update tracks the popularity of YouTube accounts vs. Twitter accounts.
Bennet notes that it took 26 months for hospitals in the U.S. to rack up 100 accounts for the service, while Twitter has only taken about 17 months to reach the same figure. Bennet expects the number of hospital Twitter accounts to overtake the number of hospital YouTube accounts in about four to six weeks.”
