Hello Hello Silver Bloggers and bees of the hive
If you celebrate Easter I hope you had a good one, likewise if you are observing Ramadan and Passover.
It seems there is always something going on in this wonderful Universe of ours.
That was what the Universe greeted me with on Thursday morning around 6am.
Talk about gorgeous, this is the view from our back garden.
I do love pictures where the houses seem to be silhouettes and all black!
The birds, as some of you may know I live close to the sea, probably no more than half a mile, I know I can touch the water in eight minutes if I walk without stopping to take pictures!
I will put some pictures that The Universe showed me, but am thinking that is probably my favourite.
You can tell Spring is in the air, all the animals are cavorting around!
As if to prove my point that was a couple of Magpies I saw at Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy a couple of hours later when I went for a walk.
But my post title, you know I think I spent more time wondering how the fluff I could title what I really want to put into writing today.
Will we spring Hive into life or has apathy taken root!
We have had #hiveblopomo going on this month,and I will be honest I did not post every day. I find it hard to do that without the #shitpost coming to the fore.
Aside from that, I have been involved in some initiatives with the aim of getting more engagement to communities.
One community in particular is this one Silver Bloggers.
We had a great Hive initiative which is the Weekly Author initiative, whereby a poll is created with four posts.
These four posts are chosen from posts that have been submitted to the Silver Bloggers community.
It was getting lighter now, you can also see where I zoomed in the center of the picture for my silhouette shots!
Back to the weekly author initiative... if you want to read about it then feel free to have a wee gander here 👉👉 Hive: Author of the Week initiative 👈👈
As part of the Weekly Top Authors Initiative a new Hive account has been set up @weeklytops and their post Hive: Author of the Week initiative explains the whole process in greater detail.
In short, @blocktrades @ocd @thecallmedan @leovoter will all upvote the announcement post and 60% beneficiary will be set to the winner and 20% will be spent on marketing on twitter to increase the amount of people coming to Hive.
The poll is open until midnight PST on Sunday. After that the winners of all communities who take part in this initiative will be announced by @weeklytops in a weekly digest.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
All these things are great, but if you don't get involved then what the fluff is the point.
If you goto threads you will see lots of these weekly author posts for different communities. I am sure you are in some of those communities. So go get voting at the weekend.
We need engagement. People go on about getting more users to hive...
Why would they stay though if there is no engagement...
Even discord seems to have gone quiet in so many servers.
Is it just me, or do you find that as well?
We have initiated a collaboration with the wonderful @dreemport for the next three weeks.
I am hoping that this will spring some of our Silver Bloggers and some Hivians into action!
What do you think?
The collaboration?
Here you go ....
Dreemers - MEET SILVER BLOGGERS! as explained by @dreemport
and
Silver Prompt and Dreemport Collab in April from our wonderful mod Super Eli @coquicoin
So let's spring into Spring and get Hive rocking again!
By the way @silverlions.leo is the Silver Bloggers LeoThreads curation account, come and thread and use #silverbloggers and we will curate you as long as it is a suitable thread!
What are you waiting for?
