Hive Meet Ups: One Good Thing

In an increasingly disconnected, key-board warrior, Covid-regulated, sterile kind of world, the One Good Thing I'd love to celebrate and honor today is an upcoming Hive Meet Up. 😊 Actually, it will be the 4th meet up for the Swiss Hivers! 😍

What's so good and important about physical meet ups?

I've attended a few here in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and they helped me to really grasp the DIVERSITY that exists here on this blockchain, and the really talented and amazing people it draws.

I love seeing the leadership that bubbles up at meet ups, and the sharing of information. Not everyone learns well from tutorials or complicated, techy posts. And the How To level on Hive takes some serious keeping-up with.

Thinking back on the Hive meet ups I've been to, I learned a lot about other communities, and people. I learned a lot about the travel peeps, and through that, and the inspiration from @gooddream and others, I became a regular user of the @pinmapple community. Heck, I even learned about Thai craft beer from that meet up!

Not all the great people I met at Hive meetups have stayed active on Hive, but they remain solid, personal friends. I like to think as the Hive price steadily climbs, many of those people will be easy to draw back into a regular posting habit.

Ultimately, we are people first, with personalities and quirks and the need to connect. We become better Hivers and better supports to one another when we can put a FACE to a Hive ID and can connect more deeply with their content for having some understanding of who the authors are.

Happy to see physical meet ups continuing around the globe!
