RE: I Explained Busy And Steemit To My 79 Year-Old Mom Using This Analogy

[full-steem-ahead]

That's a beautiful analogy @stellabelle, and great graphics too. If you come over to stemmit I wonder if you could edit the 2 train pics at the top to show different trains (steemit and busy), as you did below.

Nice work! I have yet to go to busy, going there now to check it out...

The two train pics are a mistake! There's no way that I've found so far to edit a published post in Busy.....I may have to go to Steemit to do that.....

[tibonova]

Because there is no way for that yet.

Writing this on steemit.com. How does busy know who I am to log me in? Why did my comments disappear?

Don't misunderstand, I know it's early for busy.org, and there will be bugs and functionality that is not yet implemented. My questions are just to understand. I like what you've done, very much. I actually wrote about the things I liked in my response to @stellabelle on busy.org, but that original response to her is lost.

@busy.org developed an open-source solution for any third party who wants to build an app on Steem, its name is SteemConnect. It does the authentication process of the users and give access to the public profile information.

Comments are disappearing when you haven't gave Busy (through SteemConnect) the necessary permissions (e.g. for posting).

Oh I see. Just so you know, I was not prompted for credentials (maybe was asked for an account name some time ago, but definitely not within the last 1 to 2 weeks). It would be nice to have a check to provide them when submitting the comment (or article) rather than loosing the work of entering the text. It's a test case to note for future revisions of busy.

[stellabelle]

that is odd. i had to log in normally...

[stellabelle]

ah, ok thanks.

I writing this on steemit.com. I responded to your reply on busy.org which appeared to be accepted, showing up as slightly indented with a smaller diameter icon. I like the idea of the icon reducing size, the indentation not so much. Unfortunately the original response to your reply is lost to the ether. I also clicked the "Add Comment" button in busy.org and posted the following, which seemed to be accepted but doesn't appear here in steemit.com. Had I not saved it in my cut buffer it too would have been lost. Here is that followup comment:

Hmmm. I wrote a response to your reply to my comment @stellabelle, and it showed up as I would have expected it to under your reply with a smaller sized icon. I like that BTW. However, after browsing around a bit on other articles I returned back here to yours to find that response to your reply gone altogether!

I wanted to add that I don't understand how busy.org is allowing me to post here at all, or how it knows who I am. It appears it logged me in automatically some how. It knows my posting key... somehow, apparently. Or does it? Is that why my response here is MIA? My brief investigation continues.

I may have come to busy.org before, long before, and perhaps I provided my posting key, perhaps only my stemmit account name. I don't recall. I'll go back to the steemit tab and see what appears there.
