NOTE: Every nominee for the Pharmaguy Social Media Pioneer Award is a winner and deserves recognition. But only 3 individuals (or groups of individuals who have pioneered as a team) will be awarded the coveted Hawaiian shirt. This is NOT a popularity contest. "Winners" will be chosen solely by Pharmaguy (me) based on my evaluation of merit. Your votes, however, will also count to influence my decision. Mostly, however, I need your comments about the people you nominate so that I can profile each and every nominee in recognition of his or her pioneering effort.

I also visited your linkedin profile. Indeed a great career profile & frenetic performance.
