Develop Live in tweets

Yesterday saw the inaugural Develop Live conference held in Edinburgh, Scotland. More than 100 developers, students and other members of the industry were in attendance, and – as with any event in this day and age – they all had Twitter close to hand.

If you missed out on the conference itself, we’ve collected some of the highlights and responses from the audience below. For more of the insights from some of the key sessions, feel free to trawl through the tweets of our official account @DevelopLive.

A big thanks to all who attended Develop Live yesterday.

Also @GamesWriting’s usage of an all-knowing owl in his @DevelopLive talk has ruined all future talks not involving an arrogant puppet.

On reflection, we were all outclassed by the owl at #developlive yesterday. pic.twitter.com/mg60iXC0aO
