Vlog: 146: Busy 2.0 + SMT's.
It's been a crazy 2 months.
Recently @blockbrothers (a developers group I'm part of) launched Steemify and our witness is now up and running.
With that out of the way, I finally have more time to check out other cool projects on the Steem blockchain.
Busy.org 2.0 has been on my list for a while.
It's awesome.
For newcomers let me quickly explain.
When I talk about the Steem blockchain it's not the same as the website Steemit.com.
The blockchain is where all the data is stored and the website Steemit.com shows that data in a nice graphical form.
The blockchain is public so anyone can tap into the data and display it in the way they want.
Busy.org is another website that displays the data of the blockchain in another way.
And it looks very good.
The team behind busy.org is constantly adding new features to the site. Some features Steemit.com does not even have.
Like the new Activity page where it's possible to filter all kinds of cool data from your account.
Here you can see my latest power-ups. A finance filter.
The whole website is translated into a lot of languages as you can see here.
Busy.org does not charge any fees for your rewards when u use their frontend.
When you use busy.org you will also realize how powerful a blockchain is. Even if Steemit.com would disappear it's still possible to access data through this frontend.
And busy.org is not the only one!
I talk about it more in my vlog.
I have recently become a witness with our developer group blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.
This is so cool. You've helped me clarify the relationship between busy.org and steemit.com. I was always thinking busy.org is another form of streemian.com where your post is being made on your behalf.
It's glad to know busy.org 2.0 is out.
The interface looks really good.
I also use the platform beta.chainbb.com for my posting, replying and commenting. It's more like a mobile friendly approach to commenting on the steem block chain, added to the fact that you get an automatic $0.02 upvote added to any posts you make from the beta.chainbb.com site.
Thanks so much for these information, they helped somuch. I appreciate
Hi
Hello how are you
also if you post through busy and use its tag then your receive upvote from their bot up to 10$ . For example you received busy.org
29%
≈ 3.92$ , and if you will have more power in followers ( more steem power if we calculate all power of your followers) then you will receive more, i think its amazing !
It will be exciting to see which front end will be the best in a couple of years :)
As of now busy is the best front-end
Improving on day to day basis.
I liked your comparison of two services. Busy.org sounds little bit difficult to use for me but anyway i will try:)
I would like to ask you : you can post the same article on both sites or you should create different ones?
If you post on Steemit it also displays on busy.org and vice versa.
Ohh i see.. Thanks for explaining, i need to check and find out how it works then:))
@exyle The more I read your posts the more I learn about tech stuff that I had no idea about that is related to STEEMIT. I know in my Heart we are in the right place at the exact point in time. What a Wonderful Time to be Alive !
It is!
Nice post my friend, i agree with your thoughts busy.org is a fantastic frontend and it has lot's of cool features that not exist in steemit.com the one of the coolest feature is that once we login to our account through busy.org at the right side of the page we can able to see our interesting following and that's pretty cool feature as well and it tell us that how many huge stake holders are following us and i like busy.org layout it reminds me a facebook style and it is also so easy to use, i also like busy.org bot functionality and yes it's nice way to attract new users, wishing you all the best for witness node my friend and have a fantastic week ahead, Stay awesome
Thanks for the support!
The great news and the fact that With added new features it says about moving forward on the site and in our ecosystem as a whole. The more opportunities, the better for all of us! Thank you for informing us @exyle
Well done @blockbrothers and @exyle, you guys are really doing great, by creating steemify app to support steemit.
I really like how you explain about does website on how they work. I have learn a lot from your blog.
Thanks mark for your good work!!.
thank you, man!
Excellent, excellent explanation. You've broken down these different concepts so we laymen can easily understand.
Mehn, thank God someone is appreciating the effort the developers of busy.org have put in. @exyle you've done a good job. That site is really awesome. I use and it's lovely.
The features are just mind blowing. From embedded dtube YouTube and soundcloud videos into your feed, to side bar widget showing recommended posts, to translation in 40 languages, etc. This site is just so Kool. There are so much more this site offers, you can check them out at the busy.org public beta post at

Have a lovely experience
Wow! If I ever needed an example of Steemit having competition coming up the ranks, Busy v2 is it.
Yeah the private messaging is a game changer for sure.
Not tried to create a post as yet, only had a quick fiddle with the text.
But I did import a pic from my hard drive instead of having to link it a facebook album. This is also a huge step forward in my opinion.
I like this 2.0 bcos it the the platform you can get enough information about almost everything than on steemit.com. With busy 2.0 there’s no need to go to different steem blockchain platforms like steemd.com to check a user current steem power percentage, or the voting percentage a user uses to upvote a particular post. Everything Is provided on the busy platform.
