As usual this meetup was the best one yet! I couldn't be happier with the presenters and the attendandees!
I got a group photo where everyone is ready and smiling but it's a little blurry and I like this one better anyway.
@ned showed up again!
He surprised us again! I sent him one little message a couple weeks ago just in case it could work out and sure enough it did. It's almost as if they were watching the live stream to come in at the perfect time! They walked in just as we were finishing the last presentation!
Huge thank you to
@ajaxalot for doing the live stream and giving a very educational presentation!
@ruwan for capturing all the presentations in high quality!
@instructor2121 for pitching in on the venue and giviing a great presentation!
@steemcafe for giving an awesomely entertaining presentation!
@lindseylambz for providing snacks and greeting everyone at the door!
@ned, @sneak, and @pkattera for showing up and answering our questions!

This was an awesome surprise from the Steemit Inc. team!
The After Party
At all the meetups we always have so much fun talking and want to keep the conversation going that we end up at Brew and Brew afterwards. They have a great coffee and beer selection that always entices us back so we kept the tradition alive this time as well!
The After Dinner
A few of us were hungry so we had a late dinner after the after party!
The whole night was just an incredible experience! Thank you to all who were there!
Next Meetup
The next Austin Meetup will be on Thursday, March 29th
Let's Talk about SMTs and the Communities We're Building!
There are so many new, growing, and thriving communities within the greater Steem community and we are excited to learn about them all! In this month's meetup we will take a look at some of these communities, how SMTs will power them, and give people a chance to talk about their community or to find communities to get involved in!
Oh man, I miss you guys! Happy to see you're still holding space to meet up and keep the Steemit community strong in Austin.

Very glad to see stuff like this happening on a regular basis! I'll have to try to make it down to Austin for one. Beautiful city, but a little more than a stones throw from Nashville, so will take a little planning. But this is the sort of thing I would love to see (or produce myself) in some other cities. So coming to see what one looks like and how I might be able to embrace the format to duplicate closer to home would be terrific!!!

Respect Steem Samurai. Can't stop reading and watching this.
This is great to see and is a great example for us all what can be done with community and blockchain. Steem, Richard, Austin, and everyone who attended made this happen and showed the rest of us what we can accomplish with just a little positive momentum. This post alone is worth bookmarking, and I have, for it's practical info alone. And always encouraging to hear the enthusiasm from the core steem team on smart media tokens. I look forward to EOS because I believe it will round out the three most functional blockchains serving the greater community. And I believe the healthy competition will only galvanize steem as the social media crypto sword for all us fintech shoguns.

It's really nice to see that Ned and the team showed up! Always interesting to see what they have to say about the development and the future of this blockchain. As always, hearing from them makes me more and more excited about what's coming this year!

In the off chance that someone posting here knows of a steemit group in central NY or can direct me to one that would be awesome! Otherwise I'll be forced to get off my lazy ass and find one or make one. Thanks :)

You should know it's annoying to get these type of comments. That is not they way to get upvotes. You should focus on creating good content or even insightful comments.

Really interesting meetup and awesome environment, after watching these kind of meetups, it really encourage me to join this kind of meetups and for sure i will do that one day. I really want to appreciate how you introduced towards new Steemians about the basics to advanced ideas for how to become successful on the Steemit Platform. And in my opinion you said absolutely right about the opportunities for Investors, developers, curators and content creators on Steemit Platform and as per my experience and opinion i can say that DAPPS will going to play an vital role in more development of Steemit Platform and it will also going to increase the reputation. I haven't earn much but i believe in Steemit Platform and i am striving hard to buildup my profile and i can proudly say that i am one of the member who really want to see the growth of Steemit Platform and also i am using Steemit on full time basis and really waiting for the SMT's to launch because that can change the face of Steemit Platform. Thanks for sharing and wishing you an great day. Keep up the great work. Stay blessed. 🙂
