Rhetorical Velocity on Twitter: Thyroid Diseases
In today’s world of social media, a knowledge of rhetorical velocity is necessary for anyone trying to convey a message to the public. Twitter is one of the easiest means of doing this. It allows for short posts and quick sharing options. Another very useful tool on twitter is the hashtag. This makes tweets more attractive and can make ideas easier to spread because anyone can use that hashtag. I looked at tweets from five different thyroid groups and one of the things I liked the most was how they integrated other media into their posts. So for two of my tweets I added videos. I tried to set them up in a way that would make people want to watch and share them. Videos are a more convenient way of spreading information quickly and efficiently. For another one of my tweets, I created a sort of campaign where twitter uses tweet the hashtag I have set and add to it whatever relates to them personally. I think the best way to maximize rhetorical velocity is to pack a lot of information into something small and create that in a way that is easily shareable and attractive to anyone who reads it.
