A big HELLO to all my friends in the Eurasian time zones! And for all you whale watchers, at the time of this blog posting, and according to the Catch A Whale site we mentioned in the last issue, Bernie Wang, Steemit200 and Au1nethyb1 have been active in the past 1/2 hour.
We have more news of Steem Fest taking place in Amsterdam November 11, 12 and 13. Tickets just went on sale and you can even purchase them with Steem! More details below.

The budget for this event for 300 people is now surpassing € 115,000 and with help of Steemit HQ and Whale support we are trying to lower the lowest entry price to about 1/4 of it.

If you are not attending you can also buy a 'NO-ENTRY-ticket' for which we thank you very much and send you a gift to your doorstep.

Steemit is a fount of boundless possibilites
For me, the really really cool thing about Steemit and Steem is that there is no end to what you can do with it. Over at other social media, you are pretty much going to take whatever they dish out. Your possibilities are endless here at Steemit. If you have not been to Steem Tools, you owe it to yourself to explore what they have there. Everything from a mobile application for Steem, a Who's Who guide for steemit, a list of venues accepting Steem or SBD payments and much, much more.
