When I saw mention of identi.ca and Mastodon I was thinking that @dickturpin would be interested in this post, but then I see he led you here! I was into blogging many years ago, but experimenting with various social sites like identi.ca, Multiply, Google+ and others. Many don't exist any more. I like that Hive can exist as long as someone keep processing the blockchain. I still write blog posts like I used to, but get more responses here than on my old personal blog. That has value to me.

Hive can be more than blogging with games, video and other 'dapps'. You can use it however you like. If people appreciate what you do then you can earn.

Enjoy!

Have a !BEER (that's something else to check out).
