Introduction

This is my second post using chainBB to post. It's been fun and I had a blast talking with @jesta about all the super cool stuff coming soon for this plaform. I know that right now he's focusing on the desktop wallet but he will shortly come back and give another sprint to this little bomb of a platform. If you need any explication on why I only post and comment using chainBB, click here.

What's new on chainBB? The @zappl is on it!

@steemitqa mentioned in the comment section that it would be nice for Zappl to have it's own forum board. I understand that they have a discord chat and steemit.com to release news...but there is nothing like a community forum to build a community.

So after he said that, I went ahead and started talking with @jesta and within an hour, he had the zappl board on

I'm still very excited about @zappl and I can't wait to start using a mobile app to Zap short micro-blogs multiple times a day.

Every project should have a board on chainBB

If you are working on the development of a project or a new platform on steem, you need to aggregate all the conversations regarding your project in one place and ranked them by the one with the latest comment on it. For that you have to use chainBB.

I've heard that @jesta will be working on adding the ability to add Sticky posts for announcements and other cool stuff. I can't say too much but just be assured that some very interesting developments are coming soon.

Want Free Money? Comment using chainBB!

At the current moment, my votes give away about $3. So in the comment below, I will be upvoting people who used chainBB to post their comments. I will also be perusing the forum to find people who write comments using it. (in the beer forum and other) Not only are you making money, but you are also helping that way to fund the development of this very promising project.

One last Thing, are you a twitter user?

If so - maske sure to take part in Bobby Lee's poll and vote for STEEM as the currency that should be added to BTCC. The more exchanges we can get supporting Steem, the more options all of us will have to buy or sell Steem :)

I signed up to chainBB about an hour ago, then perusing Steemit as I was, only 5 minutes ago, I saw this post, so I signed back into chainBB, and here I am commenting via this forum.

As I alluded to on a previous comment on chainBB (my first one here) - I don't fully grasp, the no doubt, many use cases and possibilities for this, quite yet, but I can see that they are very promising, and for extra kudos, it's already got a Zappl forum, which is another awesome project that I am really excited about, so count me in!!

Zappl is an exciting project, and it's even better when it can join forces with other developments on the Steem blockchain - such as ChainBB.

As the Steem ecosystem develops, we get closer and closer to the dream scenario: When a content creator can exclusively use Steem services. If you can upload video, micro-blog, macro-blog, and even participate in a web forum all via Steem platforms... why use anything else?

The only benefit Twitter and others have right now is that the "major influencers" are on there. Celebrities are mostly on Facebook, not Steem. But, if the balance tips and enough famous people get onto Steem, it's unstoppable. We already have some big name people on here - just the other day, after reading two books by a great author, I found him on Steemit.

Looking forward to participating in conversions on this Zappl subforum. Thanks for kicking it off @cryptoctopus

Wow you guys work really quick, no time to waste :D Good job @cryptoctopus and @jesta.
Looking forward to trying both the app and the desktop wallet. I will be zapping like mad :D

Thanks for posting. I have enjoyed Steemit for the past 9 months. I have been wondering how I will use the other Steemit based blockchain sites like Zappl, and ChainBB.

ChainBB will need to integrate a ReZap button into its post ;-)
Thanks for doing this @cryptotopus I was going to try to create one and here it is. Just beautiful!

Very cool, I am liking this platform. Will be on here as I have time to post and comment. Keep it growing!!!

It's great to see so many apps coming out based on the Steem blockchain. If we can duplicate the basic function of Twitter (especially), Reddit, and Facebook, our community is going to DWARF these older platforms

I see that you posted using chainBB. :-) Upvote for you!

thanks, I've been playing with chain BB for a little bit, and I like what I see. I reSteemed this post, and I hope you can get some more interest in using this format

nice... I was originally going to type "testing" LOL

OK cryptoctopus, I've logged in using chainBB and my posting key. I assume it is somewhat safe to do that. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet but I'm willing to give it a try if you say it's the way to go.

If it makes you feel any better, your posting key gets saved into the web browser you are using and never sent over to my servers. All the blockchain magic happens in your browser :)

That does make me feel better. It's magic!

I'm liking it! Not used to the layout but, will spend more time on here to see if can help with ideas/suggestions!

This is my second chainbb comment :) The UI confused me a litte bit xD

Great idea!

I tried to post my latest steemit entry here but was sad to find the cryptocurrency forum went away. :(

It took a bit of doing to find out how to make this post on chainbb.com, but with a bit of reading, I managed it. I also found the answer to my questions about the various Steem keys! So THANKS for that. I'll also be following you because I want to learn more.

Zappl sounds really Cool. I'm super excited for this project to take over the internet.
Thanks for introducing me to ChainBB. This my first time using it. I like it. I just log in here.

Thanks for bringing chainBB to my attention. I had not heard of it until seeing your post. I'll be giving it a test drive in the coming days to see how it performs compared to Steemit.

Woohooo Posting from here is easier than I thought it would be!

However there is some latency when submitting. Will that go down in time?

I'm sure. To be honest, this is really early beta.

I made it. to sign in into chainBB. Wasn't completely aware of the different keys on Steem. So double thx @cryptoctopus
nice to see you zappl guys her, too =)

test

@blocklab glad to see you here!

This is awesome!! Having all the projects on the ChainBB would be an easy way to see how each project is going. The best part would be how fast to find them all. Thanks for your continued work on this. I have watching this come about and think this will be a big part of the future of Steemit.

Good progress. Let it fire up

Posting on chainBB. I think this is my first comment actually. I could see this becoming the standard platform for discussing pieces on Steemit.

Upvoted and comment using chainBB

Well I'm always game to try something new and this looks pretty interesting. The whole Steemit, cryptocurrency and blockchain thing is pretty new to me so this is really helpful for me to check out info and advice from those who have been on the bandwagon a lot longer. I love it when everyday is a school day

I'm in for a big learning curve but I'm sure its going to be a blast of fun along the way and hey who doesn't like making money while having fun.

We all gotta start somewhere. 3 years ago, I was completely overwhelmed!

Hello this is all new to me but I am learning. Just signed into my chainBB account. Thanks for the explanation.

anytimes!

Wow, there's a lot to this. I'm new to steem and the only people I know on it are in other states. It can be confusing if you don't know what you're doing (like me ha ha) I'm loving steemit so far. It's a very interesting place and a very supportive community

It's a really cool project. I did buy a little during the pre-sale. Can't wait to see what's next.

Between stuff like Zappl and ChainBB, this whole community and everything connected to it; the people, the apps and all around good vibes, is just really good to see and be a part of.

This forum is beautiful! Thanks for reminding me to check out ChainBB.
Forgot all about it :-S

I just realize, that chainbb right now is the only way to make sure, that you will read all messages from specific thread, because this gives a linear interface :)

Probably I will read all important entries like those from steemitblog using chainbb :)

For everyone viewing this on regular steemit without chainBB, HERE IS THE LINK!
https://beta.chainbb.com/zappl/@cryptoctopus/meshing-steem-projects-a-new-zappl-board-on-chainbb

to this post INSIDE chainBB, you will simply need your steemit account name and your posting key to login to chainBB with your steemit account!
Your posting key is iin Wallet > Permissions> an in that page youll see "Posting Key" copy that and use it to login to chainBB! Once youre inchainbb either use the search bar in top right corner to search for this post "Mesh Steem projects" or use the link above! Its very cool its like subreddits fir steemit but better! now all the content of a similar type can stay in the same spot and be curated by a group of fanatics!

@jesta is a huge hero and i am so glad to see people creating upgrades this ground breaking! and thank u for bringing in all your followers @cryptoctopus! now I will g post on reddit and invite evrone from thedonald and pics and every big subreddit over to steemit too get PAID!!!

Every project currently on Bitcointalk forums should be on chainBB!

I write for the first time via chainBB. I think it is an awful platform and it could be used with success by forum sites to reward the users who are best contributors in producing content.
Good work.

an awful platform?

ahah, I'm sorry.. epic fail.. I intend beautiful platform.

As I writs this on beta.chainBB.com (full link https://beta.chainbb.com/zappl/@cryptoctopus/meshing-steem-projects-a-new-zappl-board-on-chainbb ) I am watching this post grow to almost six HUNDRED replies, and the chainBB page can only show so many posts per page, and we are now at over 3 pages, whenever a forum has over 3 pages of a thread noone is gonan go through more than1 or two of them but a small minority!

I find myself having to use STEEMIT just to see more comments ! the chainBB needs the ability to shrink down all the text so I can get ALl of it on one page!

hahah i find myself having to use the HDTV just to see all the text and comment!

how can we keep track of them all do the top comments with teh most veiws show up on the top of chainBB? can I reorganize the comments onhainBB?

haha I know how yard this was to build and i feel liek a child complaining about features but still it is easier said than done, i know, i jusst wanna give my crtique!

this is amazng but i feel like a fear of missing out is gonna be huge! You should be careful when saying "wat free money" lol i get it i get it but your making me feel like if i dont post a bunch and get your attention @cryptooctopus that i wil miss out! i am getting very much anxiety from thi, i just wanna do good here and make enough to not miss out on this gold rush with bitcoin and altcoins and mining!

I guess the best thing to do is relax and just try to post like u normally would, cat let thos change our habits TO much but we ARE changing our habits! money is the ULTIMATE skinner box classical conditioning or operant conditioning tool!
the steem is the conditioned stimulus and the writing of good content is the conditioned response!

WE NEED to create subreddits for aLL the top sureddits like Pics and AskReddit (AskSteemit) TheDonald and Advice Animals, those top sureddits have like 30 times or ore as many users as we have total on steemit! we are only 170,000 users on steemit reddit has over 240 MILLION users ! Facebook has 2 BILLIOn users

We can fuckon bring in redit users like moses freeiing the digital reddit slaves! who create content without ANY pay!

so any power users on reddit would LOVE to switch to steemit and NEVER look back!

Getting acclimated to chainBB already :)

Anyway, if you dont know how to sign up to chainBB, I made a little tutorial for you guys!

https://steemit.com/chainbb/@eirik/signing-in-to-chainbb-is-easy

Thanks!

chainBB looks great! Thanks for the heads up about it @cryptoctopus. Can't wait to check out Zappl too.

This comment is brought to you through the chainbb.com interface. Join the revolution.

I thought I will try commenting feature at chainbb, the chainbb looks really amazing which I didn't knew at all :)
Will be active here

Nice platform .Good going Zapple

This is really awesome! I am excited for all of these new developments based on steem/bitshares!

Is there a discussion board for EOS.io? If not, maybe we should get one going.

Might not be a bad idea! Wonder if Dan wants a forum for EOS ;)

That'sounds a really good idea...

Thanks @cryptoctopus will be using chainbb in the future. Cheers for what you do mate

I am very happy to have a forum linked with steemit. It will be very useful to discuss new projects

I'm going to signup and post there, your vote entice me. :)

Great idea! Thanks. I am trying...

Up-voted, Resteem'ed and Tweeted! Let's get the word out!

The more interactivity the better. Good job Zappl and ChainBB! The more layers we have upon steem the better the chances of more success!

This! Keep the layers coming

Agreed @drpuffnstuff ! The more apps built on Steem the better we all are!

Growing in health and potential! I likededed it already. Thanks for posting the good news. Namaste :)

very cool insights. thx. I am also signing up to chainBB right now. is there a good video tutorial what you can do on it?

Is there any way to login without using account credentials?

no. Just like steemit, you need to have an account to add content to the blockchain.

For security you can (and should) log on using your private posting key. This will only allow posting access with your account and you can't transfer steem or anything like that.

There are many helpful posts about the different keys, but you can find the settings under "Wallet/Permissions"

here is a direct link to this post on ChainBB! I notcied it was misssing from the steemit post when you see this on regular steemit!
https://beta.chainbb.com/zappl/@cryptoctopus/meshing-steem-projects-a-new-zappl-board-on-chainbb
LOL chainBB is like steemit Gold!

Ok so yeah you just have to login with your steemit account! DOnt worry its easy! You just need that "Posting key" which is in your Wallet > Permissions and u will find your posting key inthat list!!!! use that to login to chainBB

Cryptoctopus you are amazing man I didnt know chainBB was up yet but Ive been telling everyone about it! i plan on creating subreddit replacements for all subreddits!

Alright. If used inappropriately, what's the worst thing someone could do with my posting key?

It's legitimate to worry about this, but as long as funds aren't at risk (which they aren't in this case), it isn't too bad. ChainBB is a reputable project, it's super unlikely to have anything bad happen unless, worst case scenario, they got hacked somehow.

Someone could post and vote in your stead. Until you change your posting keys. (they can't touch your funds)

New guy here :) Tnx Crypto hopefully this will work out.. Posted on chainbb

I'm new here and I'm sort of starting to pick up what's going on. So chainBB is more of a discussion forum? I thought about logging in there but I don't quite understand the connection to Steemit. It's possible to log in there with our password here? Is that a security risk or am I missing something in the relationship between the two sites?

Yep, more of a discussion forum format. The connection to steemit is that they use the same blockchain and share the same data. I'm posting this from chainBB right now and you're probably going to read it on steemit.com. Since both websites use the same blockchain, they share the same accounts and communities :)

You can login to chainBB with a posting key - there's instructions on how to find your posting key during the chainBB login process.

The risk of using your posting key on chainBB is that if chainBB get's compromised someone, and posting keys get stolen out of your browser (that's where they're kept), someone could vote and post as you.

Is that the only way to post there, then? It's something to think about. I wonder how likely it is for someone to steal keys there versus here. As more related sites are developed will they have separate keys, I wonder, or maybe that isn't practical.

I'm new to the word blockchain, too, but I'm learning.

No, you can post to the steem blockchain through steemit.com, busy.org or beta.chainbb.com (or some I'm sure I'm missing).

For example, here's a post I made earlier using chainBB, in the General Discussion forum, which now shows on all 3 sites:

All posts go to the same blockchain, but show on a bunch of sites and communities.

chainBB only shows posts that use specific tags though, and automatically assigns those tags when you're using it. If you wanted to post on the General Discussion forum from steemit.com, you'd have to use chainbb-general as the first tag as you're writing your post. If you look at those links above, you'll notice that was the first tag I used.

I wonder how likely it is for someone to steal keys there versus here.

Well, if they steal the keys, it's going to be from your browser. None of these sites have servers that you're sending keys to. When you "login" to one of these sites, it's storing your key in your web browser, and then when you post it signs transactions with the key and submits it directly to the blockchain (not a web server).

As more related sites are developed will they have separate keys, I wonder, or maybe that isn't practical.

Since they all use the same data, using different keys really doesn't work. You don't have an account in one place and not another, it's the same data.

Think about it like Bitcoin - you can import your wallet into Bitcoin-QT or Electrum or Bitpay, and they all still use the bitcoin blockchain. You get to choose your interface. Another analogy would be Twitter, you can use your twitter account on Hootsuite, Tweetdeck, or twitter.com and it's all the same account and same twitter :)

Hope that explains a bit!

Welcome to steemit @doule !

Thanks @steemitqa! I'm glad to be here.

Very cool stuff, resteemed. When im feeling better I will look into it myself.

huuuum the handshake is with lefties ... as the saying goes, there is no bad lefty so good premonition ..

wow this craze and it works. upvotes is sure on this post..... thanks for the info

follow me @secter

not being able to login via chainbb. please help. is password same as posting key??

I like your post. Very interesting. I follow you. Thanks :)

i am now a member on chainbb and thnx for this post to guide me @cryptoctopus i hope this is commenting using chainbb as i have that open now and i hope i earned the reward too. i wrote a post in the forum mentioning you to prove i was a member that way too .. it is great to read the post in chainbb and i am learning heaps-- many thnx to you my crypto friend -David

Nice
Im following you now, interesting

thanks @jesta for the help in logging into chainbb. but cannot find a way to comment here via chainbb. or am i misunderstanding something?

Thanks for the info on zappl! I would have done the comment on chainbb.com but when I went there is gave me a blank page. Perhaps it is temporarily down?

Thanks for this post. I just found out about Steemit the other day and the more I learn, the more fascinating it revolutionary it becomes. I'm now finding out about Chainbb and Zappl, which will use the Steem blockchain. This will create the network effect if either of them becomes prominent and will reinforce each other make everything more robust.

This is amazing. Thank you

You people have great vision. Always thinking ahead. This will benefit us all. Good job guys!

I was trying to login at ChainBB, but it did not work. It said that I was using the wrong WIF key. I am sure I used my correct user name and my posting key. Checked and double checked.

A great idea, I resteemed!

Verry good...

Great idea!

nice...rs and upvote for you...

Drain the reward pool!

Just waiting for custom forums and I might even consider hosting some of my own in the future! We're all blessed to have Jesta here so might as well show how much we appreciate him.

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Looks like no edit option on comments? Just noticed my typo and it will be now embedded forever in to a blockchain! Grammar nazis will never leave me alone.

Edit: You can still edit your comments using Steemit.com. I'm saved

Editing very soon - hope to work on it tonight!

You're lucky that I was putting on my grammar gestapo uniform in between the time that you made the post and edited it...lucky, I tell ya!

I will check it out for sure. Helping Others To Help (others) 1 By 1.

Nice post
follow me @fitrinuraeni

Great to see all this new development, thanks for keeping us informed! Upvoted, subscribed and voted in the poll (come on people, second place is not good enough!)

@deimus

So I signed up and then posted on steemit, haha, what a newb

Well, this is good news for the steemit community that supports the Meshing project -
New Zappl Board at ChainBB.
I strongly support the performance made by zappl members.
Good job @cryptoctopus
Resteem!!!

Great Idea!! Commenting using chainbb

What an exciting time to be alive, eh?

Good job!

Hmm, haven't really looked into chainbb alot until now. Might be the first one to start up the music community if somebody doesn't beat me to it 😏

I checked chainBB out and it looks terrific! I might have missed it but is there a general board? I think i misposted in the Steemit board thinking it was for general topics.
