Introduction to Hive community

avatar

I am Gabriel Onoja. I am a Nigerian from Benue state. I am from a family of 7 children. My dad is a businessman and my mom is a trader. And I am the second born of my father. I grow up quickly because of the kind of responsibilities I got at a very tender age. There are two ways of education in Nigeria. Learning the practical first before theory or learning theory before the practical. Normal schools suggest system theory before practical and street education is always practical. I was allowed on-the-street education at a very young age.

I enrolled as an automobile engineer in Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria and I can say for now am a certified engineer and am looking forward to working globally.

I don't have many hobbies though, but I love football a lot and I love chatting. I can be on the football pitch all day if allowed but not possible because of my day-to-day work.

  I joined hive to have fun and connect with people all around the globe.  Since it is hard to use any social media channel to earn also, I am making this place my heaven for my work and time. It is good to be here. 

I heard about hive yesterday from a seminar at meshboc hosted by one @tykee on this blockchain and Hive was well explained. I love his presentation and I like to say a big thank you to him for the invitation.

He explained the do's and things not to do, which are plagiarism and others. And the last takeaway from him is that we need consistency here and money is not everything.

Hive Blockchain. I am here!

Hello @doublefunds! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive and introduced yourself to the community - congratulations and welcome!

Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities. I see you already found the GEMS community, and you might be interested in the Hive Naija community as well.

Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works.

Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.

In addition, since you're new, you may run into an RC (Resource Credits) error when trying to comment/post because you don't yet have enough Hive in your account yet. For assistance with a temporary delegation to get you started, be sure to check out the Gift Giver site.

I'm sure @tykee will continue to help you as you begin your Hive journey, but if you have questions, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server and we'll do our best to answer them, and again welcome to Hive!
