UNLESS YOU’RE BUSY hibernating, you have likely heard that the Web Summit kicked off in Dublin’s RDS today. This year, the three-day event encompasses everything from tech and food to sport and music.
Of course, the vast majority of us are not attending Web Summit and the only way we can get a flavour of the event is by following it on Twitter.
And let’s just say that reading through some of the tweets can make you feel like you’re living on a different planet.
1. There are coloured sheep
The coloured sheep grazing on the green at the RDS have been one of the most-talked about features of the Web Summit on Twitter.
Because nothing says “Welcome!” like pink sheep.
2. This is an acceptable morning greeting
Happy networking day!
3. You hear the word “ecosystem” approx. 2,346,721 times
Ecosystem is the new disruption.
#ecosystem
4. These are the sort of pub chats being had
You make WHAT?
5. Phrases that are nonsensical in any other context suddenly make sense
Turbocharging the funnel?
Is that…safe?
6. “Wearable tech for dogs” is a real-life thing
Are we in the future?
7. This is the sort of question that people are forced to contemplate
8. Where else would tote bags like this be given out?
Er…
Interesting marketing ploy there, lads.
9. And then there’s this…
Darina Allen. 3D printing. Colcannon.
We need to lie down.
