One correction, though: We ARE using social media at UPMC. We have a UPMC Facebook page now, with nearly 2,000 fans, and use twitter in some of our service lines (i.e. urgent care, sports medicine). We're novices, to be sure, but we're learning. Thanks Wendy Zellner Director, Media Relations UPMC Ed,
