\subsection{Social media is like a magnet that can draw attention to our
research}\label{social-media-is-like-a-magnet-that-can-draw-attention-to-our-research}

One day I received an email from a researcher who is living in Japan. He
said there's something wrong with my supplementary data set which was
published in a paper in 2014. Apparently there was a miss-location in
one of the coordinates. Recently, I received an email from a fellow
researcher from UK asking for my availability to be the co-PI (Principal
Investigator) on a project. Both researchers said they know me and my
work from social media. \textbf{I even got invited for a coffee
science-talk originating from a ``mention'' on Twitter}.

\subsection{Social media opens what once a
closed-loop}\label{social-media-opens-what-once-a-closed-loop}

Although Indonesia is the 4th most populated country in the world, it
doesn't make our research have more impact. This is mostly due to
language barrier and limited network. \textbf{For years we tend to do
research only as personal or organizational event, no more and no less}.
Nevertheless, out of that manner, we demand acknowledgment, citations,
and better yet we use that citation counts to judge who are more
prominent than others. Research had been placed as a closed-loop
activity, with no attention from others except the team member itself.
More and more research will ended up as closed report and then locked up
in somebody's drawers or some dusty shelves in the library. Social media
could be the answer we've been looking for. Continue reading and we will
show you that \textbf{it is the answer we've been looking for}. Please

\subsection{Social media creates and opens more doors of
opportunity}\label{social-media-creates-and-opens-more-doors-of-opportunity}

Before we know and use social media, as academics living in a developing
country, we have suffered from brain drain, lack of ideas, lack of
facilities, lack of information and limited network. Today, we can
harvest ideas in a snap, add some thoughts, and having more ideas in
return. We can exchange ideas with people from the other side of the
globe (or other part of the world, for those who believe the earth is
flat-your choice). We know about the latest work/ scholarship offers
within minutes. It is that easy. We read more science than ever before;
we learn from it and disseminate it further. Borrowing
{[}@Thesiswhisperer{]}(www.twitter.com/thesiswhisperer) 's words
\textbf{``When I read the tweets of others I consume their thoughts and
ideas''}. We believe people now capture ideas more quickly from social
media feeds. Instead of have a direct conversation, most of us are now
skillful in fast reading and typing to explain something in less than
160 characters.

\subsection{Social media attracts more
scientific-generousity}\label{social-media-attracts-more-scientific-generousity}

So you might ask what did we and so many others do on social media. Did
we just create and respond to random posts or chats, spend more time on
it than on our real work, the one we get paid for? No, we simply share
what we know and re-tweet others' that we thought would be valuable for
our followers. It could be an inspirational one, a knowledge-driven one,
or even a funny one. We don't intend to brag (or
\href{https://theresearchwhisperer.wordpress.com/2016/08/09/lets-talk-about-the-humblebrag/}{humblebrag})
about what we do, we're just letting others know what we have achieved,
and what we have not due to many obstacles. Share the ones we know and
the ones we don't. \textbf{A kind soul would step forward and tell you
what's wrong with your work and how you can make it more sound}.

\subsection{Social media multiplies learning
curve}\label{social-media-multiplies-learning-curve}

Many times, we just send out words. We don't know who would read nor
deeply care about them, but oftentimes people just show up and send us
their opinions, corrections, and inputs to expand and enrich our work.
On the other hand, simplest rule of nature applies, ``you reap what you
sow''. \textbf{Social media is a giant `take and give' spyder web}. We
share solutions, instant help, or just send our sincere and deepest
sympathy. In the future, others will help you in a way you could never
predict. \textbf{Our number one motto as healthy and breathing academics
is `the more we share the more we learn'}. Isn't it a wonderful way to
live our life?
