But if your research is in machine learning, I would say the correlation is significant. Just keep track of the number of papers uploaded to arXiv in machine learning and you will see why. | |

| Sep 29, 2020 at 10:27 | comment | added | dusa | That is interesting indeed! What do they measure? I read that if you have a certain number of followers and your paper is tweeted, it is likely to be cited more. Having a Twitter really helped me getting more connections, increased participation for the events I organize etc. | |

| Sep 29, 2020 at 8:31 | comment | added | einpoklum | @Dirk: I assume the recommendation is about general-public "social media", like Facebook, LinkedIn etc. , not internal systems which are "social-media-like". | |
| Sep 29, 2020 at 4:31 | comment | added | Dirk | This sounds a bit too simple (one point: the "learning management system" at my place, something similar to moodle, has a lot of features like a social media platform and the university certainly encourages that we engage with students there). | |
