Hello Friends,

If you have been following my Opensource Tutorial Series, then you would have learnt alot about Opensource projects. Last time I talked about HOW TO USE D-TUBE. Today let's show you the details of using a popular alternative interface of Steemit called Busy.Org. See Details about it here.

THE DISCUSSION IS DIVIDED ACCORDING TO THE NUMBERS ON THE PICTURE FOR EASY ASSIMILATION

1- WEBSITE LINK + SECURITY PAD:
  • If you are keen about websites, you quickly notice that important standard websites have the green security padlock icon
2- BUSY LOGO:
  • Clicking on it takes you to your feeds/homepage/discussions
3- MY PROFILE:
  • This takes you to your profile as follows.

A- YOUR PROFILE PROPER:
  • Here you can see your profile image, your cover image, your bio, date of joining, website url and Voting Power
B- YOUR BLOG ARTICLES
  • Here are the articles you have posted on Busy.org
C- DISCUSSIONS
  • Its closely linked with "B" above.

F- FOLLOWINGS
  • These are people you follow to get feeds from their blogs
  • It's very similar to "E" above
G- WALLET
  • This displays the contents of your steem wallet, your transactions, memo etc. See image below:
    PicsArt_11-30-08.49.27.jpg

  • The image is already self-explanatory, but let me just make a few points

  • I- ACCOUNT SUMMARY:
    Here you can see the balances of your currencies including STEEM, STEEM POWER & SBD. You can also do transactions to put money into your SAVINGS.

  • II- MEMO:
    This shows you your last transactions and the memos attached to them. Your transactions could be "received" or "transferred"

  • III- TRANSFER:
    Click this when you have a transaction you want to do. It brings out the very easy dialogue box below:
    Screenshot_2017-11-30-22-26-48.png
    Fill in the appropriate details and send. You will be requested to send in your active key via STEEMCONNECT.

  • IV- CHARTS
    I personally love this feature. With this you can appreciate the currency changes for Steem and SBD.

  • V- CLAIM REWARDS:
    You only get a button to click when you have pending rewards yet to be claimed. When you click it, the rewards then reflect in your balances


H- ACTIVITY LOGS
  • This feature is unique to busy.org.
  • With activity logs, you can visualize the state of affairs in your account in as single place. SEE IMAGE.
    PicsArt_11-30-08.53.26.jpg
  • You can also filter the logs based on your desired preferences as shown in the "RED box".

4, 5, 6, 7 DON'T NEED EXPLANATION. Most have been explained before.
8- WRITE BLOG POST:
  • Once you click the "write" icon, it takes you to the panel for writing your blog posts. SEE BELOW.PicsArt_11-30-08.56.55.jpg
  • Its pretty self-explanatory and easy. The only thing I may want to explain is on the use of #TAGS.
  • The space for 'TOPICS" is actually for tags. Enter your tags in small letters and use space bar to separate them
  • Remember to use the "busy" tag. The curate and upvote aanyone who uses their site.
9, 10, 11: These are self explanatory. Click 9 for profile and 10 for "OPTIONS"
  • The options include; Activity Log, Bookmarks, Drafts, Settings and Logoutetc.
  • Busy is pretty cool in that you can save your drafts and return to them later and you can bookmark another person's post or comment.
  • SETTINGS is easy to understand once you go there. Essentially for VP changes and NSFW.
