ThinkFest 2015 on Social Media
ThinkFest 2015 has just wrapped up. Ideas were shared, connections were made and, in the case of Buzz Bissinger, profanities were used liberally.
Of course, what makes ThinkFest truly great is not just the discussion on stage, but the chatter out there in the ether. Below, some of the social media highlights of a great day of intellectual exchange:
