Elena Milani (Academia Obscura):
The Internet and social media are plenty of cute fluffy cats, because kittens sell, especially among academics. Everybody knows that!
But what about beer? I love craft beer (and kittens, of course), and in Twitter I’ve found many hashtags on beers such as #beer #craftbeer #beerbods #beertography #breweries #beerselfie and so on.
However, there isn’t a hashtag for academics who love beer, as me, and I was curious if beer could help me to engage others scholars in Twitter. So, I started “an experiment” launching #academicswithbeer with the help of Cristina Rigutto.
A lot of people replied, retweeted and favorited this tweet! And you are invited to join the conversation too!
You can tweet:
- Quotes
- Selfies
- Sketches
- Sketchnotes or mind maps
- Other pics or texts
But you must include beer in your pic/text/tweet!
Here's my pic so that I don't violate the rules of #academicswithbeer (notice the hand blown pub pint from Asheville Glass Center [right across from the Wedge Brewing Co.]):
