busy.org66 in busy

The team has been busy the last months building SteemConnect 2 with Steemit inc. (See announcement), while working on Busy.org new design version.

New version of Busy is in Private Beta and need testers!

WHAT IS BUSY?

The Busy team offers open-source projects on Steem. Our goal is to develop the best tools and strategy to enable billions of people to take part in this thriving ecosystem.

Busy aims to connect everyone to a social network platform that can bring value back to users in a peer-to-peer and decentralized way using the power of the Steem blockchain and cryptocurrencies.

We are currently working on Steemconnect, SteemJS, and Busy.org

Also known as an alternative platform to Steemit.com to interact with the Steem blockchain, Busy.org next-gen social media network goal is to be this all-in-one-platform like Facebook or Wechat, offering all the benefits of the Steem blockchain for mainstream adoption.

Busy new version uses Steemconnect v2 for login, and posting API.

AVAILABLE VERSIONS

Current version (Old design) on https://busy.org

Busy.org open beta is now running for a few months on https://busy.org

2 month ago, we decided to stop all further development on the first version of Busy, running on busy.org, to focus on our new release.

Many people were invited to test the first release, which allowed us to take several consistent feedbacks and inputs to redirect our strategy.

We want to thank everyone who helped us making the next version the best possible.

Incoming version (New design)

We are working on a new version with a new design, and need more testers to join the private beta!

The next design is running in private beta with some testers for more than a month now, and it’s time to add more testers before the official public release.

There are still several works in progress, and not everything may work 100% correctly. All feedbacks are welcome.

During this beta we plan to:

monitor feedbacks from our testers, and making improvements as fast as possible

gather data/inputs to improve the product and fix issues

work on a full User Interface/Experience redesign, with the help of the community and our designer

define priorities from features expected by our testers

JOIN THE PRIVATE BETA

To test our private beta, please request your access:

Join our Discord https://discord.gg/fGAMtzQ, you’ll be directly on our Busy Discord which allows communication between all testers. You’ll be able to give direct feedback to the Busy team
