It's a good thing that you provide those channels @ned
Just wondering....why don't you give us an update here?
Have a great weekend too!
That's a great point - @ned.. I don't use any of those 3 sheepy applications you listed there... Think about the ones who are true anarchists and refuse to use such things :)
Seems a little silly to promote those shitsites
I think its fucking discusting to be honest!
Definitely seems like a shilly thing to do
He posted again! :)
Thinking the same 🤔

It seems like your blogs have been very cryptic, misleading, and lacking of real content that pertains to operations.
I get your concept of trying to funnel traffic into Steemit, but the content must improve. Especially from a CEO of Steemit.
We expect more than these cryptic messages from the CEO
My question to you is: Do you really want to be a CEO or do you just want to blog music videos?
It is OK to step down as CEO and be the playboy of STEEM. You can put someone in charge of the CEO role and this person can focus entirely on building a great company. That doesn't mean that you don't have control. You will still have all the same control of the purse strings and can be the voice of STEEM when media needs to interview. Think about it... Then you can focus time on whatever you want to blog on other social media platforms to promote STEEM, which seems like what you are interested in anyway.
Are you following @steemitblog?
I do follow @steemitblog. Are you implying that you write for @steemitblog and not @andrarchy?
Any update coming from steemit inc are published using @steemitblog. This is Ned's private account and I think he is free to post what ever using it.
Yeah I got that. Duhh
Here is some examples. @ned post stuff like this
https://steemit.com/steem/@ned/back-on-it So he is flying back to Austin to do head shots. Really? No reason to go back to actually do real CEO work?
Here is another one.
https://steemit.com/selfie/@ned/landed-in-sf
STEEM meeting in SF???? Why, what is in SF? Not Steemit Inc. It is in Texas.
How about this one?
https://steemit.com/steem/@ned/cnn-interview-for-steem
He shows up on CNN unshaven with a tee-shirt and some sort of crazy looking suspenders. Where is the suit and tie Mr. CEO? Nobody is going to take you seriously looking like this.
How about this one where he announces a RC delegation whiiiiiiiiich.... never happened
https://steemit.com/gathering/@ned/secret-steem-advantage
My point is that I feel like from what I witness from @ned's blogs is that he is more interested in writing general blogs, taking selfies while he is on travel, or showing his musical talent than he is of running a company. The exchanges are not supporting the STEEM wallets. Other currencies don't have that problem. It is caused by neglect. Yes the exchanges are neglecting it on their end, but where is the support from Steemit Inc? The other issue is that he blames the HF20 issue on the witnesses. As a manager, I don't just let teams or individuals run autonomously. A project will never come together. It is impossible even at the best companies. I must follow up, have meetings, get status, make adjustments accordingly to whatever curve ball comes my way. Believe me, there are always issues that require a work around. @ned is the CEO. He is responsible of hiring managers that actually follow up with the appropriate developers and teams including witnesses. Where were the meetings to ensure things were getting tested? There is a very good invention called a telephone. In fact, human kind has even invented the teleconference where people have group meetings via telephone. Yes, the witnesses dropped the ball, but the Steemit Inc management had no clue and pushed HF20 forward anyway. That is a management failure.
Now he wants to branch out and do more blogging? SIGH...
Dude.... @ned is just a guy. Hes a guy you have drinks with if you like him or ignore his phone calls if you dont. You talk crap with him about Messi being out for a few weeks and about Barcelona chances of winning their Champions league group without him.
Him being a CEO doesnt mean he cant be normal and that he must have Steem on his mind 24/7.
You guys keep on pushing the narrative of how he should behave in certain ways.
Give it a rest already. Doesnt mean hes disregarding his responsibilities because he makes a few posts that take 5 minutes each. Any time i try to pick up some new info about anything on any Steem related blog i run into this kind of crap. 24/7 complaints or ass-kissery for delegation.
Jeez..
You know what. I like his music video. Heres 10 STEEM from me @ned.
You won a consolation @openmic prize from me. Do some more.
I'm not saying that he can't be a normal guy. What I am saying is since he is a CEO, being a CEO IS his first responsibility by far. If he wants to go and play, then put someone else in charge that wants to be a CEO, that is qualified as a CEO, that can do the job of a CEO. If he can run a company successfully and demonstrates this by growing STEEM, then we can all give him some leeway. If he can pull off the impossible and propel STEEM network to the size of twitter, instagram, or reddit, then he can dress and act as silly as he wants. No one will care.
If he wants to go and play? I cant believe im actually out here defending Ned but dont you see how ridiculous it is to say he needs to commit his whole life, his whole day to STEEM and nothing but STEEM. Let the guy play his guitar.
If he wants to take his pants off and sing Britney Spears, cool by me.
He and Steemit.inc are putting out info every few days, hes more active, wer getting positive news......
Id rather know hes around in one way or the other then him make sporadic posts every few months.
When you made us rich, then you can sleep, Ned!
Seriously....

Lemme jump in on this train.
I think you're confusing @ned's role in the company and his apparent public image.
You never see Ginni Rometty telling the world every single second about what work is she doing, does that mean she's not doing anything to drive the world's number IT firm?
Gary Vaynerchuk posts stuff on Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Medium, Twitter, Snapchat every single day. Does that mean he's not working?
I think you're confusing his public image with the work he's actually doing behind the scene.
Blockchain development is not something get done with in a single day and tick on a box to match your KPI. Ned also probably isnt the best guy to do that kind of work. Expect things to steamroll along slowly.
You are confusing successful people with @ned. It takes more than blockchain development just lumbering along by itself. It takes leadership. Clearly no one is at the wheel when there are no follow ups with how the HF testing is progressing. There are no follow ups to the exchanges when the two top exchanges that list STEEM go an entire month and a half before getting STEEM wallets back on line. Did you know that they are using nodes with STEEM software? Some reason they are not able to get that software functioning any less than a month and a half. Witnesses can get it done in 6 hours. Steemit Inc is not supporting exchanges and helping them get their STEEM software working. It is neglect that hurts STEEM price and user ship. We need a real CEO.
Sigh... It's not Ned's fault that exchanges don't bother to update their nodes, any of the top 20 (heck, any witness) can shoot the exchanges an email and get it done. Is anyone at the helm of Bitcoin? Did bitcoin fail as a project?
Ned is the CEO of Steemit.inc they're not Steem. Steem is the open source blockchain that powers all the dapps including steem.
I'm chill with bed because I know that if anytime steemit fails I can jump over to busy, steempeak, partiko, esteem, 1ramp, any of the dapps on steem. Steem development will still go on.
So again, chill with Ned. He's not the "admin". Don't blame him for making steem suck, it's kinda everyone's fault. You hold steem power right? You're a stakeholder of steem too, think you can replace Ned? Act on it. Blockchain is decentralized no one's stopping you.
My face when the CEO of Steemit, make a 3 liner post on Steemit, promoting his pages on other social platforms..
Dear @ned, thank you for the info, but why instead to invite people to join you outside Steemit you are not giving some better signal to get Steem out from the low level as it is right now? I am one of the people who believed in this project and have power up to keep working account after HF20, we won the Netcoins contest, so what next?
@ned I know you might be confused after what Dlive did but take a look at @vimm its great streaming platform and they will never run! I'm not from vimm team but I want best for them because I appreciate all the work they putting to make us "Streamers" happy. Have a good day ned! Steemit is the best platform in the world!
Ah no more certainassets, eh? Well, I prefer
realnedscott!Oh and I've gone ahead and saved you the name here on Steem, the most important social platform. (https://steemd.com/@realnedscott)
If you want the name, give me a shout anytime and I'll send it to you over. Until then, I'll keep it safe :)
certainassets is what he uses to slide into DMs. Gotta make use of the "ass" in certainassets eh...
Also, smart move on the name "squatting". @ned's social media guy/gal must have missed that.
Here and Twitter will do me for now, cheers!
In the past, 'follow me' posts have been met with:
https://steemit.com/faq.html#What_is_considered_spam_or_abuse
I'll let it slide this time though :D
lol
Probably he never saw this, LOL.
I'm contemplating using this slight reprieve to ask for money.
Ha! :D
Where I come from we call them "campaign contributions"
lol
@ned - you may want to connect your twitter/instagram with steem thanks to @share2steem ;)
He definitely should !
Yes, this is the best dapp 😁
⚡️😎👍⚡️ Just keep on repping steem!
And pay a visit to #steemsilvergold — the shiniest tag on steemit 😜
NED, I have seen a lot of people being worried about you cashing out a lot of Steem. Can you kindly let us know why you are doing this? Don't you believe in your own platform? I'm personally getting flashbacks, seeing Charlie Lee selling his Litecoin at the top. We might not be at the top right now of Steem valuation, but still please give us some info on why you are doing this.
followed !
thanks :)
