Hey, @denmarkguy.
Well, it's T-minus 18 minutes and counting and I'm here plugging away. Not sure what to expect. Yesterday's steemitblog update helped and didn't help, depending on which way you want to look at it. I guess at this point I've expressed concerns (mostly in comments) and I've asked my questions and there appears to be little to do other than let it happen.
So, here's to letting it happen. Bring it on.
By the way. How are you liking steempeak? I see you credited it for this post. I've been using it and have my own thoughts but I'm interested to know what you think.
Congratulations Glen, you have been selected to get the last comment I will make before everything gets forked!
It often feels like we are all living in a house that could use some major remodeling, and the landlord makes a huge fanfare out of every time he sweeps the front steps or paints a windowsill. My single biggest takeaway from a couple of years here is that while "decentralization" may be a marvelous and game changing ideology, this kind of "working by consensus" might possibly be THE single slowest way to progress a project through the business cycle.
But yeah, bring it on!
I like SteemPeak for a couple of reasons. The primary one is the ability to keep and save drafts and templates. Because I tend to have"lots of random thoughts" rather than a linear string, the ability to jot something down, save it for later, and then return to it is a huge plus. Along with that, the fact that I can upload photos to posts at home and then finish the post at work with the pictures in place... that's also great. I also like the built in metrics and control panel.
It has its shortcomings, but overall it's much easier to work with than the primary interface... OR busy.org or something like it.
Well, T-minus 2 minutes! Hold on to your hats!
