Right now one of the things driving convention news is trending topics on http:/twitter.com . #iranelection has used it to get news out of Iran to protest the election as well as to let the world know it is an important issue.

We must do the same. Our goal is to make #MECFS a trending topic, so as to play a small part in bringing us out of darkness. Please notice I am not talking about the #BRC4ME tag. The reason for this is that getting the news out of this disease is bigger than any individual or organization. To bring our message to the outer world, we must work together to tweet #MECFS news and information. If we can make this a trending topic, and keep it a trending topic, it will raise the profile of all organizations working hard to bring ME/CFS out of darkness around the world.

We are asking that you volunteer your twitter account to tweet for #MECFS. This means you volunteer to tweet and retweet #MECFS news. Together, in many different languages, with tweets from one corner of the globe to another, we can do this. If you volunteer to tweet for #MECFS I will put your twitter account name up here so that people can follow you.

You can either Direct Message http://twitter.com/Kllandra or mail info@blueribboncampaignforME.org to get your name put here as a dedicated tweeter for #MECFS.

Eventually, when there is enough of us, we will organize simultaneous tweets.

Our current goal is 100 Dedicated #MECFS volunteers.

To participate you can tweet our standard tweets by copying and pasting them in to your twitter account, or you can save #MECFS in your saved searches and RT tweets, news, and people using the #MECFS hashtag. BRCForME.org thanks you all for your dedicated tweets.
