Thanks @robertandrew!

For a while, I guess we'll still be settling in... but we do have this great opportunity because Hive is getting so much positive free press, at the moment.

There are some programs from the early days of Steem (and not so early) that need to be revived or something similar started... "newbie resteem day," and "newbie contests" and the 10K Minnows gig could also use a shot of fresh energy. So far, only the "Hey, have ya met?" crew are the only ones I know of as being active again.

Of course, there's always the good old fashioned independent way of simply perusing the "introduceyourself" tag for a while and make some new arrivals feel welcome... the PeakD front end is great for that, because you can actually create follower lists to check back in with people after a few days.
