Concerning an article I put up this morning, here is a video detailing some more aspects of the upcoming Leo Twitter.

In this video I discuss how the feature is going to be utilized by individual accounts and not a "master" account to do all the posting. I also cover how this is potentially a nice piece for onboarding users.

Good come back to the Twitter post and this eliminates the initial misunderstanding. As I see it is a microblogging with a look and feel or behavior like Twitter which takes the comments or micro posts to another level.

Instead of having regular blogs which are lengthy, the microbloing addresses another niche and brings more dynamism to it. Hopefully people will not become too lazy and will try to do just microblogging.

I'm already lazy, I may like this microblogging thing. This might be great for people like me that don't create much content. It may keep the front end cleaner for some awesome well-written posts to be what most people see when surfing Leo Finance. (never drink and comment) lol, Crown Royale!

Nailed with your response and as the investors from Shark Tank would cheer on the The Chevaliers du Tastevin.

It actually allows for the better flow of information. Let's be honest, especially when it comes to finance, there is a lot to share that doesn't include long form. For example, often sharing a chart is the best thing to sum up a particular stock's move.

Thus, we can increase our sharing of knowledge and the level of communication we have.

Sounds like a pretty good way to leverage the immutability of Hive as a data storage. What we're hoping for is that this will facilitate the migration of many people in crypto over to Hive from mainly using Twitter.

At least an adjunct to their Twitter activities. If some start to use the front end for their Twitter posts, that will allow them to benefit from the immutability of Hive. Thus, if they ever get their Twitter account slammed, the posts themselves are still available on Leofinance/Hive.

Of course, we want them to move into other areas of the ecosystem too.

Thanks for the vlog, I really do enjoy them! This sounds pretty freekin cool to me, I cant wait to take it for a spin.

I think there are a lot who feel the same way.

It will be interesting to see what it looks like when it rolls out.

So is it going to be emulating Twitter microblogging visually or be short blog posting? Can't a person just post short posts already on Hive so what's the difference?

I'm for the idea as appeal to the Twitter crypto world and feel this is a logical initiative. Cater to their way of life, not just by some "madness" spamming.

Personally I don't like the default Twitter colour but they do have a super clean interface which looks good on mobile. Image border rounding for instance has a great impact in that visual appeal.

Another thing I find in need of better coding on this chain is how images expand to the screen on the frontends. Some images play nice and others stay shrunk with dead space. That really bugs me and it's those bugs that I feel developers could fix over a coffee but they're not taken seriously or they don't think it matters to people.

In general I feel these platforms need some user customisation so that they can have the belief instilled into them that this is WEB_3.0 and that it's not just code that makes it superior but the USER EXPERIENCE too. I'm not saying go back to MySpace days.. no way. But a few choices of "optimise for my device" would really help in that platform loyalty/return user because how content (and the presentation) makes a person feel (even subconsciously) play vital roles on why a person makes a platform their digital home.

It will be more like Twitter microblogging than short blog posting.

The main difference is where this is all located. On Hive, like with DBuzz, the post shows up as a blog post meaning it in other people's feeds, can hit the autovoters, and ends up in the tribes/communities as a blog post. Often people do not want a picture with a few lines of text.

With this, it all resides in the comment section. Thus, all of that is eliminated. When one goes to the feature on Leofinance, when it is goes live, one will be able to access all the posts similar to Twitter. The users wont really be able to distinguish the difference looking at the front end.

Of course, if one looks at hiveblocks, then he or she see the difference.

Some much needed clarification, thank you very much.

Also you touch on another important topic - the different keys aren't interesting to new users, they are not sexy. So it's important to first showcase what they could do for you before asking them to claim them. My Steem account was created by Splinterlands back in the day, but I wasn't even aware that I had a Steem account. Then eXode popped up on Hive and when I wanted to create my @khazrakh account on Hive, I found out it already existed.

That was when I finally cared to claim them, because suddenly, I saw a use to having them. Fast forward and I now use them on a at least a dozen different services. Bottom line is, people need to see the use of having these keys, only then will they make the effort to claim and use them.

Yeah I guess not many people are really able to blog and sometimes they'll need this microblogging feature to actually talk about things they want to talk about. It's going to come in handy, this I actually know. Might help a lot of onboarding by all means. It might allow new users to blog freely too. All in all, it'll be good

I think most of us have it completely backwards. Obviously next projects might help onboard new users but the incentive is low. Internet is full of projects and not really full of people being in love witg idea of decentralization.

Just putting out there next projects without using power of community is all the old paradigm. Your last video about people in poorer countries made me thing it would be relatively easy for the rest of us to make it extremely profitable for those without money.

Flat curation on Hive would help it a lot.
