As a speaker when you try to crack jokes in tech talks - many of them will fail, some will work and some will land really really well!
This is one of them 😆

#ConfTalkJokeTips Share the hashtag with audience and request them to use it on social media posts if they like the talk.
And request them to use your name instead if they didn't like the talk 😜

#ConfTalkJokeTips
* Give a Yes/No title to your talk
* Give the answer after introduction without explanation
* Thank audience for attending the "short and sweet talk" 😄
Here's a video clip from my #SeattleReactJS talk on #reactjs hooks while I did that! https://t.co/LgGGpEcT4Y
#ConfTalkJokeTips With "3+weak+rum" I tried a new joke at #SeattleReactJS meetup - at it worked!
I should spend some more time on "rum" (around 5-8s) to increase suspense 🙂 https://t.co/4oOznmfs1c
#ConfTalkJokeTips #NodeConfEU If time permits and you're doing live coding or explaining some stuff, reproduce the exact steps developers do in those circumstances.
Audience will relate to it, and laugh 😃
#ConfTalkJokeTips #NodeConfEU The joke delivery (voice modulation) matters and Software Engineers are not very good at it. That's ok, we're good at coding which matters more 😉
Still tell some jokes in your talks - some will succeed, most will fail, but you will improve!
#ConfTalkJokeTips #NodeConfEU If your name is difficult to remember, crack a joke about it and ensure that the joke is relevant to the audience.
This is a good ice breaker, gets audience attention and also audience will hopefully remember your name because of the joke.
#ConfTalkJokeTips #NodeConfEU Don't keep two jokes very close to each other, as audience is recovering from laughing at first joke 🙂
