At one stage during TCT show I thought my phone was stuck on some kind of vibrate cycle, it was whilst I was chairing the afternoon’s sessions too so I couldn’t take the phone out of my pocket to see what the problem was. It turned out it wasn’t a Samsung Note about to explode in my pocket but the TCT twitter account going notification nuts.
Here’s how TCT Show 2016 unfolded told through the medium of tweets:
