Austin Steemit Meetup Recap
Are you kidding me? @ned and @andrarchy showed up to our humble little meetup last night! We had about 15 people show up but I forgot to get a group photo before a few Steemians left.
As usual we stayed at Cenote until they closed at midnight and then walked over to Brew & Brew for a little recap/after party. The meetup was just as casual as usual, so it was really awesome to sit around and talk about the future with the CEO of Steemit Inc!
Ned talked about so many things that are on the horizon for Steemit and the Steem Blockchain, that I am incredibly excited about. It was inspiring to hear some the behind the scenes details about things I've been looking forward to in the roadmap. All I can say is HODL STEEM!
I really enjoyed hearing about some of the cool things @andrarchy is doing like the @hardfork-series, which you should definitely check out if you haven't seen it. Last week @bakerchristopher joined Steemit and made an intro post that included a little bit about the project.

It was such a great time having @ned and @andrarchy right here in Austin interacting with a captivated audience in an intimate setting. I guess it's pretty obvious why Steemit Inc. would want a presence here in Austin, being a very tech oriented town, and the Steem community here is clearly going to be huge!
I can't imagine a better combo to have shown up to educate us and answer all our questions! Thank you so much for that guys!
Please join us on the Austin Steemit Community Discord
We now have the The Curiosity Bot and Banjo Bot on on our server so you can play with all kinds of cool features like quickly checking crypto prices! It looks like STEEM just had a nice little pump.
Next months Austin Steemit Meetup will be announced soon!
The 3rd monthly meetup was a great success! It looks like the meetups will just get better and better. We will probably be changing our location soon so we can have access a projector and be able to do more in depth presentations. @xtrodinarypilot is starting a Steem meetup in Houston so make sure not to miss out on that if you're in the Houston area.
Whoa! Talk about celebrity guests! Did you know this was going to happen, or did they just show up out of the blue?
Yeah, Austin is a great tech community... that's where I was (Dell) when I lived there.
I had reached out to him a couple week ago, but I didn't know he was coming until a couple hours before the meetup! Talk about a surprise special guest!
That's brilliant! "Community Outreach" at its finest.
Totally awesome! The CEO himself showed up and explained the future of Steemit that must be very encouraging. Long live Steem!
Really enjoyed this trip to Austin. A big thank you to Lindsey and Ike for putting this together. See you guys in Houston!
A huge thanks to you for helping to make the meetup awesome! I can't tell you how happy it makes me that y'all make the drive. Such a great time!
So glad I could be there!!! What an exciting meeting! :D
Am sure you had a great time with @ned at the meetup. Looking forward for the new things he has in store for the steemit platform.
Wow that's awesome bro i guess i could see @ned for the second time now
This is so exciting that you get to know about the near future of Steemit!!! :)
And now everyone knows about it! Smart Media Tokens! This is a game changer!
