(5) Which Virtual / Social Media do you recommend?:
As we endeavor to go virtual, the Section and Chapters will be testing
the social-media waters. We'll soon begin conducting meetings on the
net, announcing events and RSVP’ing on EventBrite or MeetUp,
connecting via LinkedIn (and maybe Facebook...).
So, what do you use? Which method of content delivery works best for
you? Do you WebEx? Would you like an active IEEE Hawaii forum? Feel
