The 2nd annual #IwishPeopleKnewThatDiabetes Day on Twitter, Facebook and the blogosphere was a success and I’m so grateful and happy. Honestly, I was worried because I’d been traveling for the majority of April ( 3 conferences that I still need to finish posts for,) right up until last Sunday night and I was worried that I might not have gotten the word out in time.
But once again, the Diabetes Online Community came through and hit the hashtag out of the park and across all social media platforms!THANK-YOU
By 1:23 am on the morning of Wednesday, April 20th, the hashtag had already generated 2,987,152 twitter impressions thanks to Australia, NewZealand, Japan and Kenya.
By 10:57 pm the night of the 20th, the hashtag’s twitter impressions had reached 14,117,989.
And according to Trendinalia, we were the 24th most popular hashtag on twitter. Personally, I believe we would have cracked the top twenty if it hadn’t been for so many hashtags devoted to the 420 genre.
As of this morning, there are 16,238,322 #IwishPeopleKnewThatDiabetes twitter impressions in one week. And since April 17th, 2015, the hashtag has generated 40,791, 919 twitter impressions - ALL BECAUSE OF YOU.
