The topics: 
T1: What are the greatest benefits of participating in an online chat community or FB group?
T1a: How does the choice of platform affect community growth and development?

Earlier this evening, one of my #hcsm colleagues tweeted that there are more than 3,000 healthcare hashtags being tracked these days. #hcsm started 5 years ago. Keeping that staggering factoid in mind… 

T2: When does it make sense for an online community to spin-off another chat or FB group?
T2a: What are the potential pitfalls of having multiple, similar chats or FB groups?
T3: Focusing on our chat community, what have you valued most this past year?
T4: What would you like to chat about more or in more detail in 2014?

This week's chat moderated by Meredith Gould (@meredithgould)
