It's really not so bad, but there are a lot of things to be done, without even considering additional features. So many things could be done just to supplement the current ones, that would enhance usability with fundamental expectations, like various sorts on followers or following lists, and color coding of the buttons within those sections for faster visual scanning of follow and unfollow toggles. Things of that nature abound through the system in terms of immediate low hanging fruit, that it routinely shocks me we are at over 30,000 daily active users and so few are raising suggestions and dare I say complaints. I see enhancements on nearly every page, any of which are surely not more than a day or two's dev work, and some even less, based on my roughly 30 years of tech and software development organization roles and leadership positions as a basis for this one man's opinion.
As a former director of technology on a fairly sizeable social network multi-million dollar software project, I've got to agree though, finding good help AND affording them, is not as easy as it might seem.
Thank's for sharing Ned, good to see that the team is expending. This can only mean things are going well! Less is sometimes more and this post says a lot.
I wonder what it will look like when the whole screen is filled up with people. And everyone trying to say something at the same time. It will be hilarious.
Wow. That is a bigggg video conference !! I used to, when I was an Executive in my previous life, feel overwhelmed If I had 8 heads on a video conference. Thank you for all the hard work you all are putting in for Steemit platform development and promotion. As a minnow just a month old, I can only watch in awe.
I am continuing my passionate focus on wildlife. Today I wrote a blog on Snoozing parrots with my musings about Thomas Carlyle equating parrots to economists. I request you to take a look at it when you have time. Your comments, as always, would be an encouragement and incentive for me to make better blogs. Thanks
Well done post You deserve for getting Upvote from me. I appreciate on it and like it so much . Waiting for your latest post. Keep your good work and steeming on. Let's walk to my blog. I have a latest post. Your upvote is high motivation for me. Almost all Steemians do their best on this site. Keep steeming and earning.
It's really nice to see you posting again. It would be even better seeing it more often! :)
I only joined this platform recently, and only found out the other day that your are actually the CEO, @Ned. I have a great deal of respect for you my man. How does it feel to have now created the tool to change so many people's lives for the better?
I'm sorry about what has been happening with the value of crypto's lately.. I noticed your account has lost almost $3 million in value these last few days.. Stay strong. Again, you have my respect. I am in hopes that one of these days I will be able to talk with you. You seem like you could hold a really decent conversation :)
Well, I believe this shows, how Super Intelligent, truly involving, fantastic brainstorming-meeting sessions we "Humans" are capable of, so no doubt, the bigger the better and hopefully/probably the best outcomes from such extremely super engaging meetings can lead to or result in better solutions!. Sometimes though, more minds involved, in a discussion can lead to ambiguity and being non-unanimous and hence leading to another meeting and another one, possibly. Honestly, these meetings are pretty engaging, i know that very well. Three Cheers to the meetings !!!
Thanks for welcoming our Co-Founder and CEO to Steemit, @herman2141. The next step is of course for our leader to read the whitepaper he helped write, introduce himself properly to the community he already knows, and then set about earning his first Steem tokens which he already has. Then I'm sure he will deserve your follow and you can help guide him toward being an intelligent Steemian who stays on top of things like you do. :)
Yes, definitely. In fact, although I didn't name you (didn't know if you would like that), I was referring to you in a comment I made about the voting bots in this post by @markwhittam:
Thanks @ned you have shared about this, this is a great community ..
I just dreamed someday I was there, yes it might just be a dream that can not be realized ...
Upvote my comment and let ned know that he is doing a great job. Plus i will visit your profile. Hope i will find something interesting.. Cheers!!! 🙌🙌🙋🙋🙋🙋

Ah yes you are a lot. Anyway, thanks to all of you, you're doing a great job. I hope that Steemit will one day be worth billions. I would like to help you.
@ned,
Can we get an update on what the current team priorities are and when items laid out in the 2017 road map are expected to launch?
I'm specifically very interested in 'communites'.
Thank you,
@leongkhan
Congratulation for being one of the 3 relevant comment in this thread.
Ha, thanks. I'm here to try to add value. Thanks for the strong upvote!
Would like to see todays meeting view; getting bigger still?
I must say; VERY FEW updates from our commander; would be good to see a lot more dialog from you ;-)
Cheers
Careful, bigger isn't always better. Small focused teams can execute quickly.
^This
Hopefully at least two of them are finally UI/UX and marketing professionals!
Congratulation for being one of the 3 relevant comment in this thread.
If this had come from anyone else, I might have thought it was snark. LOL, thanks for the vote.. of "confidence" :D
Well, it's hard to find good help!

Yeah. Have you tried putting 2 phones in a call right next to the mic?
Ned I think you will need a bigger screen soonish, to fit everyone on LOL.
Have a good day.
I would definitely agree 55" minimum

That sounds fascinating. Would love to read the Carlyle piece. Going to go look at it. I am only a minnow myself, but I'm interested in parrots.
NICE
Waiting for someone to figure out all the easter eggs :)
LOL do the Easter eggs come with cute bunnies?
There is the word "mob" in the task list on the left, it either stand for a mob of steemians or an upcoming mobile app.
Great news, Keep it going!
Get ready for the Mars (not just the moon...lol)!
For the next one:
Why didn't i received my video conference invite? xD
Can you follow me back

Don't encourage them, lol.
I don't want to, but I'm too nice to say no lol

We share the same concern and I'm glad you are doing something about it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😐
you should always follow ned. He is the CEO of Steemit.com/Steemit Inc.
You should tell him "I'll upvote you if you upvote me, we can grow together", it works way better.
Steemit look like a best and good perfection for people
Great news, thanks for the information @ned

Success to all !!!
You're gonna need a bigger screen in a matter of a week 😱
keep changing the world!!
:)
Can somebody share the links for getting on to this call? If you have the Hangout link please share the same.
Unless you're hired by Steemit, you wouldn't be able to get on this call.
Think thats big lol. I managed calls that had well over 150 phisical endpoints and 1500 vurtual enpoints connected. . . . Once every 3 months.
It was a nightmare
