Seems to have been a bit of a quiet day. Not a peep from Ned and the Steemit Inc crew to explain Ned's livestream no-show yesterday. Maybe he is going to make a surprise appearance at the first State of Steem Forum on MSP Waves on Thursday to make up... 😃 In the meantime @shadowspub held her first weekday Witness Chat which was well attended with a good bunch of witnesses pitching in. There was some excellent networking going on and lot of ideas being kicked around. Look out for the recording from @shadowspub shortly. On Saturday @aggroed will be holding his monthly Witness Panel on MSP Waves. No details have been released yet of which witnesses will be attending but @aggroed usually fields a strong team. On the token front @fulltimegeek has released A Cursory Overview of How Vaporchains Work. Tomorrow we have the first State of Steem Forum on Thursday 8pm - 11pm UTC on MSP Waves. The team behind the forums - @pennsif, @llfarms, @paulag, @teamhumble and @imacryptorick - have already managed to bring together a terrific group of steemians to give their views on the current issues. So far on the guest list we have @aggroed, @anomadsoul, @crypto.talk, @exyle, @fredrikaa, @hr1, @imacryptorick, @llfarms, @lukestokes, @nathanmars, @paulag, @shadowspub, @starkerz, @taskmaster4450, @themarkymark, @therealwolf and @yabapmatt. Taking part in the audience chat we should also have @acidyo, @crimsonclad, @drakos, @gtg and @birdinc from Steemit Inc.

The State of Steem Forum #1, supported by DSound - Thursday 13 December, 8pm - 11pm UTC - MSP Waves
