Continued from yesterday’s survey of Game Developers Conference 2017 tweets, here are the most common words on the #gdc17 twitter hashtag for March 3rd 2017, fifth and final day of the conference:
Michael Chu of Blizzard gets the most mentions, quoted for saying that Blizzard embraces diversity in Overwatch.
And last day, of course.
And those were the main themes on Twitter.
Time: The first time I did this, a mere 8 years ago, Twitter wasn’t yet an integral part of the communication strategy of every company on the planet, so it felt more like these word clouds were revealing something fundamental about the conference.
Today, Twitter has to be approached with some skepticism. I have had to remove the endless stream of tweets that concerned the promise of prizes for everyone retweeting a particular tweet. And you never know how many accounts are real, and how many are puppets made for whatever reason.
But still: This GDC had no dominant theme.
