Yeah nice but it doesn't even say what its counting down to really. Very vague.
I think a lot of you have forgotten how to look at all this from a normal persons perspective that is new to this technology.
It is counting down to the relaunch of the website, and some PR campaign stuff.
1.0 should release a few weeks later probably.
I know that because of digging around in threads on here. My point was people that don't have time to visit to forum for hours don't have a clue what's going on and planned for the future.
I'm not hating I'm just pointing out this area needs looking at from marketing perspective asap.
This is valuable feedback. Thank you. I think this is one of BitShares main marketing problems.
Despite its complete transparency, BitShares works like an insiders only club where only a 100 or so people really know what's going on.
The forum stats (new members, posts, topics) are steadily declining month on month as it's hard for new people to try grasp everything or feel like they want to get involved and contribute.
Possible ideas -
- What is BitShares? A 5 minute video or few pages that clearly explains what BitShares is & gets people excited about it.
- A delegate site that makes it easy to see who the currently paid delegates are, even those in the top 200 and what they are working on.
- BitShares News. A weekly news show < 5 minutes, that lets you keep up to speed with what's happening in BitShares without having to navigate the forums and try to extract the nuggets yourself.
It's not an easy task though, NXT have tried to create a visual overview of their system on one page and it is still incredibly complicated and confusing to an outsider trying to make any sense of it imo.

My approach I think is to try present BitShares as a holding company for various business models.
I think new investors will be able to better understand BitShares & its value by seeing sites that vastly undercut and outperform existing options such as Dwolla, UBS, BullionVault, IG etc. and I think customers need to be taken to a site that fulfills their specific needs too.

This is a really great thread for following whats happening:

The user experience is still a little jarring. The program feels "heavy" to use because of all the resource usage. I don't think it's necessarily bad, as long as it's stable.
It gives the program an air of mystery, like "what's it doing in there?".
I'm assuming that there is no way to cut down on resource usage? If it can be done, it should, because currently it represents a barrier to entry for users who are running their lives on the lean side so to speak. Bitshares should be inclusive to people of all economic standing in my opinion.
I have been using Bitcoin Checker for a while.. Works great. Has alarms and you make you own pairs from many from exchanges.
