Special Guests

Our first guest this week is @elear or 'Diego', as we call him around Utopian. As the CEO of Utopian.io he know many... many things. Diego shares some of his insights with us. Specifically, he talks about the recent delegation event which impacted some of the operations of Utopian. You can listen to Diego in the show as he chats with @jedigeiss.

Our second guest is the project owner of hede.io, @ercu. Hede builds on the traditions of sharing skills and knowledge through 'dictionaries.' Unlike Wikipedia, contributors to Hede draw on personal experience to create their subjective posts. Information may be very subjective and opinions are welcome. Hede is built on the Steem blockchain. All entries by users are committed to the blockchain just as any with any Steem post.

Our third and final guest this week is the amazing programmer @helo. This busy Canadian wears many hats. First of all, he is a witness! Vote for him here @helo also manages the witness for Utopian.io!

When he is not managing witnesses he is programming. He is the curator of the French Magic Frog project. Recently he contributed some code to the very popular Open Source project OBS. This code provided the ability for a user to stream directly to DTube using OBS. His code was accepted and will be included in the next update of OBS. Read all about it here.
