We’re always keen to facilitate such discussions, and with that in mind we have recently added ‘Post to Twitter’ as a convenient option in the right hand toolbar of each BioMed Central journal article.

So far, our Twitter feed includes blog posts and hot article notifications, along with various short updates and links relating to BioMed Central and open access publishing. Any other suggestions? Let us know!
