HI,

Thanks for the summary about D.Buzz! I feel kinda special to be included. :) I want also add some additional information for you.

D.Buzz does have a progressive web app (PWA) that was rolled out and released today. (* you can read about it here https://peakd.com/hive-167922/@dbuzz/d-buzz-pwa-ready-for-download-and-uses-mobile-and-desktop-app )

  • "New users will be limited from posting because they have no hive power."
  • If a new user signs up through the D.Buzz on board link (LINK :
    https://hiveonboard.com/create-account?ref=dbuzz ) they will automatically get a delegation of HP to start to post and engage on the block chain.

Other projects that we have developed and released, Or will soon be released.

I really enjoy using D.buzz because it's a simple and nicely packed twitter copy solution. The only thing some people seem to complain about is that it will be shown over my wall and can look a little spammy.
