I was an invited speaker at the Sparkle PR Training and presented: Twitter for the Local Section Public Relations Chair presentation at the American Chemical Society Sparkle Training May 1, 2011.
#AIHCE
#AIHCE Social Media Meetup Organized by @pidgirl Read more about it here.
#ACSDenver
#ACSDenver Tweetup Organized by @pidgirl
I was an invited speaker at
#SERMACS2011. I presented the following in the Social Media in Science Symposium:
My Twitter Tool-Box: how I utilize Twitter for my small chemical business
The Value of a Facebook Business Page
#SERMACS2011 SCI-MIX presentation: Rapid separations on a portable GC with resistively heated columns
2011 was an amazing year and I really enjoyed celebrating the International Year of Chemistry via the Cape Cod Science Cafe Q1-Q4 as well as other numerous outreach activities including National Meeting events like "chemists can dance" video and the Global Water Experiment-{whose deadline by the way has been extended until the end of March 2012-there is still time to participate in the world's largest chemistry experiment} !
I was fortunate to work with several other GC/GC Column/Accessory manufacturers this year on technical presentations and to meet many really excellent folks through the use of social media as well as meeting them in person at the social media meetup/tweetups and at SCI-MIX and other networking social events. Thanks for reading and I wish you Happy New Year!
Stay tuned for my January 1, 2012 blog post: A glance ahead to @pidgirl's 2012 presentations.

@pidgirl's #IYC2011 month by month best in blog & media coverage
@pidgirl's #IYC2011 month by month best in blog and media coverage
January 2011-Media Coverage News of the Week Kick-off of #IYC2011 including science cafe's on Cape Cod and my blog post Cape Cod Science Cafe
February 2011-Northeastern Section of the American Chemical Society (NESACS) Local Section Monthly Meeting where I got to meet Nancy Jackson, 2011 President of the American Chemical Society.
Her dinner talk on technology was inspiring and the spirit of her speech was certainly echoed by Jack at all of the #IYC2011 Cape Cod Science Cafes during his introductions of the mission of IYC and the vision of the sustainability of the chemical enterprise.
Not an Official IYC event but we sure discussed #IYC2011 at our February National Committee Meeting: Committee on Public Relations and Communications (CPRC)-first visit to the American Chemical Society Headquarters in DC (pictured below).

March 2011-#pittcon Leveraging Social Media
April 2011-Cape Cod Science Cafe
I was an invited speaker at Sparkle Training of the Local Section PR Chairs, ACS HQ, Washington, D.C. |
May 2011-The Chemistry of Industrial Hygiene Reception
This was a particularly neat event: bringing together the fields of chemistry and industrial hygiene (like we do at PID Analyzers) by organizing an #IYC2011 event sponsored by the Northeastern Section of the American Chemical Society at the American Industrial Hygiene Conference and Exposition. I contacted governance from the local section: Portland American Chemical Society. Read more about it.

June 2011-Hanover Day
NESACS reserved a table as a civic organization in order to introduce the denizens of the South Shore to the International Year of Chemistry.
July 2011-Told all my friends to watch "chemistry" Jeopardy!,
Blogged about the IUPAC Congress Meeting

August 2011-Greater Boston Mass Spec Discussion Group Family Picnic
I talked this symposium up on Twitter creating this Twitter event that earned lots o' re-tweets:
Communicating Chemistry to the Public symposium
For sure we could have used a much bigger room for this event. The house was packed and there were constantly folks standing along the walls. Important also to note that this was a continuos session without a break and extremely well attended.
More info including speaker line-up etc about this awesome symposium here.
George totally hooked us up with the tye-dye lab coats |
Chemistry Ambassadors at the family picnic. Attendees with kids were amazed and delighted that we provide hands on chemistry experiments for the kids. As if the bouncy house wasn't awesome enough...then add in some cool science, and yes, we had LN2!! Read more. Here's what the press had to say about it. |

Here's my Facebook status after I spotted the Twitter Takes Hold at #ACSDenver:
http://cenblog.org/newscripts/ 2011/09/ twitter-takes-hold-at-acsdenver /
I have arrived: I've been blogged about in Chemical & Engineering News!!
The Twitterati were out in full force at this year’s ACS fall national meeting it seems. So much so that yesterday, ACS Web specialist Chris McCarthy (@CMcC_ACS) tweeted: I did a little analysis. #ACSDenver was tweeted >3x as much as the hashtags for Anaheim and Boston were and the meeting isn’t eve...
