Bi-weekly Development Updates for D.Buzz - Today : More Sharing Comming Soon!

Hello fans and friends of D.Buzz!

As the hip-hop legend, movie star, and poet Snoop Dogg once said...

“It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none. ”

― Snoop Dogg

What Snoop Dogg was referring to in this particular statement was sharing. While we are not going to venture a guess as to "what" he was referring to that you should share, it's a warm sediment indeed.

So our homies can have some, today we are rolling out additional sharing features! In today's update you will now not only be able to share directly to Twitter, but also Facebook. This will give you a greater ability to use D.Buzz as a hub in your social media syndication cycle.

With today's update on https://next.d.buzz/#/ staging platform, a share button is added at the bottom of each Buzz, allowing users to share Buzz's to Web 2.0 sites, this means you will be able to share directly to Facebook and Twitter today. However, by next Tuesday you should be able to share to all the specific networks listed below .

Filter by Notification Type

We like to keep things organized as much as the next micro blogging site. Today we also integrated a system that allows you to filter notifications by notification type.

This means with a click, you can see all notifications about one specific type of content, these are, comments, replies, upvotes, etc... we hope this will streamline your content searching and perhaps save you sometime!

Marketing Updates

If you are not aware, we are setting up a full marketing facility in the Philippines to help promote and grow HIVE along with our microblogging platform.

• There was a delay with setting up the marketing facility due to renovation taking longer than normal ( #ConstructionWoes ). These are being addressed however and progress is being made.

• Additionally, Hive account@chrisrice is in talks with a professional crypto/blockchain marketer, their goal is to fill up the computer stations with trained personel. We expect excellent results from this meeting!
