"Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success." – Henry Ford

Hive is not simply a blockchain - it is a decision, a mindset and a like minded community that shares in the growth of such.

THE WHAT, WHY, WHO & WHERE OF IT ALL

These are my five...

WHAT

_{(What Hive offers you as an individual)}

Hive offers me the chance to write what ever I want, however I want. It lets me grow as a writer with every post I publish without fear of censorship of any sort and being based on a blockchain it stays forever.

WHY

_{(How Hive is different to other social media and blogging platforms)}

Hive is on a decentralized blockchain so it’s not owned by anyone. Every one of us that holds a little Hive has a voice in the governance so you have some skin in the game. It’s a lot easier to care when you own a piece of the action!
I really like the set up of the comments on posts. It allows for lots of engagement and free flowing interaction with people that read those posts, better than anyplace that I know.

WHO

_{(People & spaces you find Hive support and gain enthusiasm from)}

I’ve made some great friends on Hive! People I know, like and trust and some who even know, like and trust me. The list of people that I follow and interact with on a daily basis just keeps growing. I’ll not name individuals here for fear of forgetting someone, but feel free to ask me in the comments.

PowerHouseCreatives is a full service community that supports it’s members and the platform in general. It’s a great place to publish from, and the discord server is lively much of the time. https://discord.gg/yrZcBm

Peace Abundance and Life is another great community that is home to a very wide range of initiates and has their own broadcast studio with a great range of topics and one of a kind hosts. https://discord.gg/

WHERE

_{(The front ends / dapps of your choice and why)}

For me, there is really only two. I like HiveBlog just fine and know my way around it, but I LOVE PeakD. It’s set up perfect for me and it just makes my time on Hive a pleasure.

#THRIVEONHIVE

_{(My final thoughts & conclusion)}

Hive is the best place I know of on the internet for creators and curators of content. We have artists, bloggers, musicians, vloggers, and writers that intermingle and interconnect seamlessly.

Is it perfect? No, it’s not, but there is a huge team of dedicated Hivers working mostly behind the scenes to make it better all the time.

It’s a good place to spread your wings or build a nest.
