    St. Patrick’s Day Clickbait?

    2. Jamie Dornan
    3. Colin Farrell
    4. Cillian Murphy
    5. Michael Fassbender
    6. Domhnall Gleeson

    reddit Goes Green

    reddit-patricks-dayOf course, you can’t talk about how the internet does anything without heading over to reddit. Not only did the reddit team change up the site logo for the day, there was plenty of St. Patrick’s Day content being bookmarked and shared by redditors around the world.

    Among our favorites were this St. Patrick’s Day email marketing campaign gone wrong:

    And this tweet – yes, it is actually real – a reddit user captured from the OECD:

    oecd-patricks-day

    Who knows how many shots of Jameson Irish Whiskey the social media team at the OECD had had when they thought that tweet was good idea…

    Wherever you spent your St. Patrick’s Day, we hope it was a good one.

    Share.
