Beyond Bitcoin Hangout - 5/27/16: (RSVP Here)
Beyond Bitcoin Hangouts are made for anyone to join and be heard...
The launch of Steem hit me hard. So hard that I found myself dazed with all the possibilities and decisions that seemingly were laid on our doorstep by its arrival. It opens up so many possibilities, in fact, that it at nearly blows my mind to sit and think about them for hours on end (don't laugh...if you are reading this you likely do it too).
I am wanting to test a new format for announcing hangouts in a way that gives everyone an incentive to promote our themselves, their projects and alliances that germinate in this very hangout community. So for a period of 1 month if you want to be covered in beyond bitcoin hangouts in any serious way, we will be asking for you to upvote this post, RSVP and give upvotes to other projects/topics you find valuable.
How to get Coverage
Post to this and future Hangout Announcements telling us if you are going to be there and what project/topic you would like to cover with the Beyond Bitcoin Community. The highest voted project/topics at the start of the hangout every Friday @ 10am EST will be covered first, followed 2nd highest, 3rd highest...etc in sequence from highest to lowest.
How much time will we have?
Hangouts will be at least 45 minutes long, but depending on attendance and projects/topics to be covered may last up to 2 hours. Given this, we will try to be as flexible with guest speakers as possible, but will be forced to limit the number covered in any hangout to 10. This should enable us to at least let people speak/take questions for 10-12 minutes each.
Is coverage all I get?
No. You also get the opportunity to post links relevant to your projects, steemit posts/updates about your project and have those links posted to soundcloud and the steemit thread where the hangout is posted.
Is any topic off Limits?
Yes. We reserve the right to learn from the newest trickster trolling steemit consistently searching for way to insert chaos into the equation and devise future strategies for negating these. Naturally if these efforts become ham-fisted attempts at shutting down free speech in honest conversations, the audience will hold us accountable.
But with that said....pretty much anything can be covered--even up to and including current events. However, I personally will only be voting up stories that touch the blockchain in some way shape or form.
I would like to Shine a light on Xeroc tomorrow and just take a few minutes to talk about all that he has done in bitshares. He is truly a bitshares allstar and i would like to start doing this with other community members on a weekly basis.
Xeroc has worked on so many projects it is insane.
Jonathan and I would like to continue to announce the weekly Peerplays updates on the Friday morning hangouts, if that is alright with you guys. Perhaps 10-15 minutes, with a few minutes afterwards to answer questions.
without meaning to sound rude can you please post links so we don't have to search for the podcast.

sure! actually thanks for the feedback. I hadn't really thought about leading people to the soundcloud directly through here because...well everyone who usually attends already knows. But you are right! we are on steemit so we should be telling new people how to reach our channel. :)
