I'm generally a decent marketing copy writer; my background is technical writing in the IT industry, and I also did a lot of ad copy, radio ad scripts and the like. It's not what I enjoy writing... I'd

On the increased activity front, I kinda like seeing some old faces show up again; people who once were significant contributors of quality/interesting content and then slowly stopped posting, for this

I would tend to agree with the 75%. One of the things that constantly gets "missed" when these sorts of stats are presented isn't spending but HOW people are spending. Fewer and fewer

I suppose I am almost always writing something. If I'm not writing blog posts for fun, I'm writing descriptive copy on web sites, or descriptions of products for eBay or something else. Writing is just

I wish I could say it surprises me this is on twitter, but it really doesn't. And some of the crowdfunding platforms like Gofundme are also filled with people begging for money. I know times have been

We steadfastly refused to leave the house today, and the computer purchase this morning was the only thing that resembled commerce... and for a $370 savings on an intentional purchase, it was worthwhile.

Wishing for you a safe night, Karen! I've watched a few newsclips, and it looks just awful!

Happy Thanksgiving to you! This has definitely been a great day... and let's hope this is just the front end of a sustained "Santa Claus Rally!"

It's certainly a nice example of persistence paying off... at last. We kept plugging through 7c Steem in 2017 only to eventually get our efforts rewarded when it went to $8.00... With Hive it feels like

I think it's awesome how you're keeping this initiative running... so here's a Thanksgiving "thank you" for you for so tirelessly helping build this community! That Orca prize is a pretty amazing

Happy Thanksgiving, Denise! I hope your day was just filled with love, warmth and gratitude! There is, indeed, much to be grateful for. Just taking a quick break here in the middle of the "food

Thanks for stopping by; have fun watching movies!

Thanks for the support; I appreciate it!

I keep trying to be more structured in my approach, but I increasingly think the takeaway here is that it's an exercise in futility to try to go against our natural rhythms... whatever they may be. For

Well, just tried the "swap" utility to send 60-ish Hive to Hive-Engine, and it worked seamlessly, and I definitely plan to keep using it any time I have more than a handful of Hive going to or

Hoooo...boy. That would definitely be cause for all manners of panic. Been there (sort of) done that, when a piece of hardware failed lass than half a day after creating a crypto account. Fortunately,

Well, your post resonated... brought up things I hadn't thought about in a really long time. I worked in usability and human factors at Dell, and it was pretty much a joke. I was also a technical writer,

Ah yes... I remember Netscape (or Nutscape, as we fondly called it, along with "Exploder...") and it was a pretty solid browser. "Push Technology" pretty much is responsible for a lot

Yes, I have had plenty of tricky days... today was the closest yet; I realized with very little UTC time to go that I was about to miss it, and got my post out with two minutes to spare... The actual content

Thank you @goldenoakfarm, appreciate it! It was fun to find all these photos of favorite trees we've "visited."
