Week Updates

I actually had a todo list this week written down as every night when I couldn't sleep thinking about small things, needed to pencil them down, just to help me calm down :P The week was about finalising the mobile app, tested together with @good-karma who now submitted them, awaiting review. They will be live a couple of days before SteemFest, but you can already download last year's version which will simply be overwritten in your appstore next week, so you won't forget to download it.Furthermore I prepped a couple of Raspberry Pi's which serve as great standalone computers for projector stuff for the livestream, Art At SteemFest and a realtime photogallery for the photobooth of course :P.For the SteemFest Blockchain Hackathon I prepped some big fat ugly fake cheque's for the winners and mailed the Blockchain PT Meetup group subscribers, who co-promoted the hackathon. Really want to consolidate lists, as all participants for the hackathon will use the Devpost site to submit their projects.Wrote some invite letters, got very disturbing news the visa for @stellabelle's full expenses paid trip winner @gloglo was not honoured, with the same reason as @infovore's last year.... It is really a pain in the ass and demotivating to see this visa cancels from people who are super serious about attending and moving world's to make it happen. My heart is with you @gloglo, thanks for your kind words, you will be missed in Lisbon!Yesterday we arrived in Lisbon with some minor delays, again a headache and feverish from the plane, hope I don't start developing this 'plane sickness' or something, maybe it's just the age :P Hopped in the rental, visited the Art at SteemFest venue, wonderful, a bit rough on the edges, but perfectly fitting, and can host MANY artworks, so thats great too. Will need some lights, but manageable.
