Social media take center stage at this year’s American Academy of Dermatology annual meeting, as the AAD offers its first Twitter "selfie" photo contest. The winner will receive a $50 Starbucks gift card; how’s that for an incentive?
To enter, you (or a friend) need to have a Twitter account. Send your best selfie (it can be one person, two people, or a group shot) of you and your friends enjoying the meeting. Note: Photos may be taken in or around the convention center, or out and about in Denver, but no photos may be taken from inside the meeting session rooms.
Once you’re on Twitter, tweet your best selfie to @AADMtgs, and be sure to use the hashtag #aad14.
The contest kicks off on Friday, March 21, at noon (Mountain Standard Time), and ends on Tuesday, March 25, at noon (MST). A panel will review the photos, and the winner will be notified by noon on Friday, March 28 (Central Standard Time). Gift cards will be mailed or e-mailed. More information is available at the AAD’s website, aad.org.
