Hi. I'm Steemits Worst Dev Ever!

in introduceyourself •  8 years ago  (edited)

Hey guys n gals.

So my story starts like most #Steemians, a long time Bitcoin lurker and lover of crypto. . .

I registered a #steemit account about 2 months ago and posted a joke site I made but nobody really saw it, and so I left Steem and carried on with my daily grind. (Which mostly consists of applying to Simple website jobs on upwork for 10$ per hour) I am South African so that is ok for me and more #money than most people here earn.

Short history

I studied music and quickly realized there was no money in it. In 2013 Bitcoin saved my life and after mining and subsequently trading I was able to leave busking in clubs for money to being able to not worry about my immediate future and start thinking about my life and the possibilities the world had to offer aside from music. Bitcoin taught me the value of money, the value of working hard and the value of myself. After making and losing quite a lot on trading over the last few years I decided it was about time to learn a new skill and so started coding.

A new brave world

I knew I had enough money saved to get me through 6 months and working hard I could make that work. After 3 months of diligent work on sites like code academy and Udacity I was comfortable enough to start working some small jobs on upwork.

This was about a year ago today. So now I am happily earning a small some doing web design and still studying in the evenings.

So now that you up to date.

The joke site was about a New World Order DAO and is kinda ironic now that Eth is a kind of oligarchy... But that's another story. If anyone wants read about the site I made you can read about it here: https://steemit.com/dao/@worstdevever/my-take-on-all-these-daos-and-what-the-future-icos-will-look-like . Long story short the Eth community did not find it #funny and it was soon Downvoted into oblivion on reddit.
Here is what the site looks like :

Back to the STEEM

For the last few weeks I have been pushed into a real Front End Dev roll building out a site for a pretty big network but I have also been expected to do infographics and other #webdesign things for them and so I thought I would take some of the best "stat" and "#analytics" stories on steem and create infographics for them that both promo steam and make these high quality posts more valuable.

I hope some of the articles will even be updated with my info graphics in them.. That would be cool.

Here are some of them earning a few cents :

Anyhoo..

thought I would give an intro post as I have done a few other posts without saying who I was.

So HEY, HELLO, Hoe gaan dit? BONJOUR, HOLA, GUTEN TAG, CIAO, OLÀ, NAMASTE and SALAAM my fellow Steemians.

nice to meet you @worstdevever

i think we need to do more infographics soon because in the infographic the highest earning post is now beated twice value! 8]

see you next post

Wow! Insane. I will have update it every day at this rate!

Similar to SP, SMD tokens cannot be purchased directly on an external exchange. SMD are primarily earned through contributing but can be purchased by converting STEEM tokens to SMD tokens.

Actually Steem Dollars can now purchased on external exchanges !

PS Abbreviation of SBD = Steem Backed Dollars
or just SD = Steem Dollars (not SMD please edit)

you are very talented designer. You could do some work there for steemit.com . I really liked your introduction and I am glad that we have such good people working on steemit.

Thank you so much. I am more a front-end dev than designer but getting better in all aspects day by day.

I would love to work for Steem. :) and by the amount this post has gotten me it looks like I already am.

Welcome and nice intro! FYI, wang is a bot but those links are helpful.

Oh ok.. Thanks. @imjefe

He also has a wife bot named Weng.

Lol for real @karbonxx? How did he get a million $ in steam?

WOW Steemians.. This is more than I have earned in the last two months. You really are a fantastic community!

Some of us are suckers for pixel art.

@worstdevever Hello and nice to meet you! Enjoyed your infographics! Looks so legit! Looking forward to more in the future!

great

Thanks for sharing. Also, good work!

Thank you so much.

Hoe gaat het!, Come join the SteemGO team and help create this new blockchains app store, with your creativity.

Baie goed en jy? Cool I will come on in today and see what I can add. Would love to help out where I can.

Thanks @nickjames . Nice to see you too. :)

walakom alsalam
welcome here to steemit community
I wish you have a good time

thank you so much @mosab. Peace be with you always.

I'm not sure about all the techie stuff in your post, but never sell yourself short. You're all you've got in this universe and if you don't believe in yourself first, then you've got some changes to make. It's a great community here, keep going and we will help each other out on this journey.

Thanks @moonflower , Don't worry one day I will be the best dev ever and I will shout it from the rooftops. But for now somebody has to claim the title of the Worst. :P ..But ye jokes aside I have a pretty confident attitude that I am a pretty decent designer/front-ender.

Good work ! keep improving

Hello! Nice to formally meet you ! Its crazy to think that those infographics are already outdated.

Hey @calaber24p I know right. I only did them last night and already too far gone. Hopefully I can find some #analytics Steemians to collab on a few more soon.

nice to know you.. good posting

Nice to be known. :) thanks so much @phanie90
