Shame not to have met in person last week @sambillingham but I totally agree that "It’s pretty easy to forget the important part is community."
Being relatively new to Steemit, and a relatively infrequent poster, I was nervous about what I was getting myself into but I was blown away at home welcoming the community was.
Looking forward to what you and our fellow Steemians can create on the platform; hope to keep in touch.
