Hospitals: The State of Social Media Use

Ed Bennett at Found In Cache does a wonderful job of giving us a statistical glimpse of the increasing (skyrocketing) use of social media tools (YouTube, Facebook and Twitter) by hospitals across the country.

His post, "Hospital Socia Media Stats," gives some interesting statistics into the adoption and growth of social media. To the right is a chart that he includes in the post. Check out the link for more interesting information.

For those of you who might not already know - a few months ago Ed started a tracking chart showing the adoption of social media by hospitals.
