Follow Friday - roving edition
I'm out and away from my PC, but I feel I should still get out a #FollowFriday post. I am still on a high from my meeting with @nathanmars @adetorrent and @sergiomendes last weekend. They are all worth a follow.
The main Hive site is still showing strong growth on Hypestat and rising hundreds of places each week. Word must be spreading.
I discovered photographer @dannewton this week. He is in Lincolnshire in the UK and says several people he knows have also signed up. I hope he will let us know who they are. He is also into heavier forms of metal music that he features on his @earthsea account.
@bushradio is a musician from Germany making music with some cool electronic instruments.
@c0ff33a is grinding coffee in the North of England whilst also being a Hive witness. He is looking to organise some meetups around there that could well include lots of coffee.
@katharsisdrill is a comic artist who has just has his work put into a beautiful book that I will be getting soon. I am really looking forward to getting that.
We need to keep pushing to get the world to hear about Hive. Send people to HiveOnboard and help them get delegation from @giftgiver out someone with HP to spare.
Hive five!
Coffee, food and all sorts of Beverages #hiveuk #teamuk will show the world how to do a local meet up of #hive - and if it's only me I might need a week off work to recover from the over indulgence lol
It still counts if it's just you! I hope it isn't though.
I will check the comic guy .. i already like the concept
Thanks @steevc, its good to meet some more of the Hive members who are based in the UK, and thanks for sharing both of my accounts, its greatly appreciated. I haven't found many people interested in the more extreme side of Metal yet, but its early days...
And yes like I mentioned, a whole bunch of us have joined recently.
It started with @fastchrisuk, who got @brianbrogan1960 and @richgaynor involved.
They seemed to really enjoy it and told the rest of us so the floodgates opened... now we have:
@wildonewon
@purplephoto
@neilru75
@flashpointstudio
@fizogphotography
@ebabb
@audreyvr
...and me! I think thats everyone.
We all do photography, although we all have slightly different interests (wildlife, people, light painting, flowers, landscapes, planes, trains and automobiles!)
Wow, that's quite a hub of Hivers in a fairly small area. Considering there may only be about 100 active in the UK this makes a big difference.
There is due to be a meet-up in Halifax in September. Maybe some of you can make it. @c0ff33a can make you coffee!

Thanks for the mention. I’ve not been on for a while, need to start posting again soon !
No worries audreyvr... It can be time consuming to post on here, and 'real life' often gets in the way. 😉
Followed couple of people that I wasn’t following already.
Keep up the good work
Nice to know we are going places. I miss hive this past few days (I am getting better)
I saw there was a little bit of small pump in Hive the other day. I am not sure why, but it was nice to see the price jump up a couple of cents. Hopefully it was because some more users were buying into the chain.
Any increase is welcome, but we have to build on firm foundations. Hive is just ahead of Steem, but the latter ought to do worse considering what has been gong on there. It's up to the markets to decide what has value, so we need to show them Hive is better.
