RE: Real Talk About Friends On Steem... Or Lack Thereof
Congrats for stepping out of your comfort zone. What was your talk in Vietnam about?
Ironically, I'm of the mindset that the horrible markets people would actually help people be more inclined to take communication into the real world and/or pursue meeting to redeem some more value from this place, especially if it fades away. Steem is the perfect bridge for that and common ground. It takes time to get to know someone, but for some of us interacting on Steem/Discord for years, it just feels like the logical next step if there was substance to it.
Thanks for chiming in and leading by example.
Most of the folks in Hanoi were new steemit users and this was more of a how-to session.
My talk consisted of showing them different tools like SteemWorld that could show them different stats that steemit didn't at the time.
I've gone to a local Portland steemit meetup here. That was more of a schmooz and booze type situation.
I did however, end up with a part time job that paid in steem from that one. :)
I agree! Getting people to communicate honestly is an actual strength of this blockchain. Fewer people are talking shit when money is involved.
Don't forget though...It takes effort to communicate :) Some times it is easy to turn it off. :)
Have a great day! communicate with ya later.
