Social Media for Anaesthetists.

Talk delivered at the beautiful Josef Chromy Winery in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia.

Social media is enormous no matter how you look at it. Billions in ad revenue, millions of tweets every day, hours of our time on platforms. Pervasive in our personal and professional lives. Can't separate ourselves from it now.

I asked them if on WhatsApp .... yes but that's not social media they said .... 😬 .... we're on it, and we don't even know it sometimes ...)
