THE IDEAFinally: Social Drinking goes online!
Homeoffice? Quite alright for most. No more commuting? Even great. No more nonsense-talk with your best friends over a drink or few? F*%& you Corona! There is only so much one can take!
Enter modern video-conferencing tools! Enter the rise of teledrinking with the opening of the worlds first teledrinkingbar! Might it be here in the #teledrinkingbar with your friends or strangers from around the world or in your very own virtual speak-easy or online pub with your best friends: Get together over a drink, or numerous more to meet, discuss, connect, shit-talk like in the real world!
On a slightly more serious note: Social integration has been proven to be the number one indicator of longterm happiness. We shouldn´t waive on it even shortterm and even though a face-to-face meeting is an aweful idea at the moment.
UPDATE 2022: We had some really fun moments in the Teledrinkingbar. But as said back then:
This shit will go over.
Your friendships will stay.
Live and enjoy them!
So we have closed the Teledrinkingbar in July 2022.
Thanks for all visitors & supporters!
Some rules apply even here:
- Make an appointment at a specific time with your friends to meet here, or get lucky looking who from around the world might be there.
- In case of the latter: Introduce yourself, telling a bit about your current situation, where you are in the world – and maybe about your countries drinking culture. Be kind, silly and the best you. There is enough unpleasant in the world – and this bar doesn´t got a bouncer.
- Please use a headset. Otherwise the sound is terrible.
- Make a screenshot and share it online to inspire others to not loose sight of social interaction. Tell the world who you did meet.
