Figured this could also be a good way for readers to stumble upon new authors that have recently joined or they've not seen in the past they might be interested in following as well.
I followed @the100 recently, noticed him in a comment on my post and recognized the username from a TV Show I watched for a while and then realized he was new to Hive and jumping into the rabbit hole head first which was nice to see. Hopefully over time the whole process will be made easier for newcomers with some simple popup tutorials on front-ends such as peakd.com so they don't have to "do the research" by themselves.
Anyway, your turn!
PS! Changed name of community to "ask the hive" from a recommendation by another user and I personally like it more as well, what do you think?
