That was definitely worth 40 minutes to watch, thanks for sharing it @nathanmars.
The first thing I really took to heart was core value of the product and not hype, and that is really something which Steem is building massively right now, and I think that will pay off a lot quite fast and much more so in the long term.
The second thing I thought was very important was that anyone should be able to use it, and here I think Steem has some way to go, both in terms of the whole signup process and how to use the network itself, it's easy enough for the people that really want to learn, but way too hard for the average person on Facebook and Twitter.
And the third thing was learning from mistakes and having an environment where it's a good thing to experiment and celebrating failure because that's how we learn, and I think this is something we have a lot of, want to make a dapp, just go right ahead, and if it doesn't work the first time adjust it until it does, that's great.
And the fourth thing is engagement of the users and I think that seven77 and PushBook Network really does a great job here, it makes new and experienced Steemians come together and communicate and use Steem, I for example made my first online video with seven77, that led me to do videos on Dtube, it makes people active on the Steem blockchain and enthusiastic about it and that is more important than anything else.
Truly appreciate Continuous contribution with our STEEM
Let's together keep pushing STEEM with Seven77 & PushBook Network
