digitalk

(also known as netspeak, internet slang)
How to sound like an idiot. Digitalk is used by people who try to sound cool using internet slang words in everyday speech, such as spoken hashtags, bae, lol etc which actually just makes them sound stupid.

Digitalk is sneaking into our everyday speech and even in formal contexts too, like OMG, can't even. It’s a legit problem (you see?)

OMG guess what, I didn't even put any makeup on today but, like, my friend just gave me a compliment #blessed

digital transformation

A word used by sales people with limited knowledge of technology to define the movement from an older type of technology to something newer, sparkly and expensive but not necessarily better.

Do you want help with digital transformation of your current set-up to the cloud, all it takes is money, poor project management, staff re-training and if you are lucky, you might have something that is less secure, a pain to administer and at best as awful as what you had before but on someone else's computer

Digital Renaissance

The era where information and ideas were easily accessible in the age of computers that started with the beginning of the Internet in 1995. A new enlightenment age, like the original Renaissance era of the 14th to 17th centuries, where art and culture thrive. A time where old and new ideas are revisited and reshaped to lead humanity into the next era all across the world.

We are living in the Digital Renaissance.

"Hopefully, after the Digital Renaissance era, people wouldn't be as stupid."

"Sorry Dave, you're wrong."
