The lighter side of transcreation

Gone tweeting…

Titanic fun

You can be creative and
funnyBrowsing Twitter
feeds to see if transcreation was
a subject that was generating
any interesting debate
or insight, I was
quickly disappointed. Was I
expecting too much of
the micro-blogosphere?

Yes, there is a #transcreation tag and a #copywriter, but it didn’t take much effort to find out how boring and repetitive said transcreation tweets were. Well, the ones that I could find.

Surely if lawyers are connected to the law and tennis professionals to tennis, the  transcreative people should be, well, sort of CREATIVE? A modicum of creativity, innovation or even imagination?

Don’t we owe it to the world to practise what we preach?

With barely a second’s hesitation I sent out the call, and lo! a hero emerged from the depths of the blogosphere. There is a small but hopefully not lone outpost of creativity attached to transcreation.
Get thee to Twitter and follow @eltcblogger; and #transcreationjokesfor a bit of a larf!

Here’s one to get you started:
“Hear about the dyslexic who thought
transcreation was an art director with
gender issues? Boom boom!”
