RE: Directory of Geographic Communities for Countries, Regions & Cities - is yours listed? [25 February 2020]

in #promo-steem5 years ago

@pennsif I think that Geographic Communities have a lot of potential.

There is also a new feature by SteemPeak that offers profile Badges and a few of them that I have seen are geographically specific. You can view the currently available Badges here: https://steempeak.com/badges

You can learn about creating badges here: https://steempeak.com/hive-175001/@steempeak/badge-creation-steps

I think that the combination of communities and badges could be a very good synergy.

Hi Jacob, yes not sure about the badges yet.

It will be interesting to see if the Badges also become Communities.

They make a single feed of all those that hold the Badge and people can easily subscribe to it which I think could be very awesome for keeping up with all the users in a geographic area regardless of if they are a Community member.

Below is an example of the Homesteaders Badge page found here: https://steempeak.com/b/badge-131313
As you can see the 'Accounts Feed' is created by folks that are recipients of the Badge and the Subscribe button lets anyone subscribe to that feed.

I will look more closely at the Badges when I have all the Communities connected in.

:) Right now they are doing the first fifty free. You may want to expedite your research.
