Thanks Tieshun! Guess I should introduce myself too. I'm Kos, Namebase's resident FE engineer. I'm responsible for building most of Namebase's UI's including main app, landing page, Pro, and of course this very site! In my spare time I'm a huge car enthusiast and small-time vinyl record collector.

Hey everyone I'm Anthony, CTO at Namebase. Been obsessed with Handshake for the last couple years now, so it's been very exciting to watch the community grow and create new use cases. Looking fwd engaging with you all more on this forum. Outside of Handshake, I'm interested in playing music (piano/guitar), cooking (I follow infinite cooking youtubers), and AI.

Hey everyone I'm Tieshun, CEO at Namebase. I'm super excited to see the Handshake ecosystem grow so fast β€” secondary marketplace activity has been growing at 70% month over month (exponentially!) for the past 6 months and every day tons of new members are joining the ecosystem. Namer News is our attempt to create a community forum for the ecosystem while dogfooding dweb tech β€” you log in with your Handshake name and can post Handshake, IPFS, and Skynet links β€” it's a truly dweb-focused forum. We also highlight when a name resolves to a website, so if you see a highlighted name, click into it to check it out. Handshake names can be used for numerous use cases and decentralized websites and login is just the start!

Hey everyone, I am Ridvan, a backend developer at Namebase. It's been amazing to see how Handshake transform(ed)ing the internet experience as we know. I do 3d printing stuff outside of Namebase ...

Hey everyone, I'm Jake, marketing lead at Namebase. It's been a wild few months since I joined in October. Since then, Handshake has grown exponentially. The importance of moving away from our reliance on centralized infrastructure has only become more and more obvious, while potential use cases for Handshake have skyrocketed (see: this entire site).

Excited to chat with all of you here on Namer News and beyond. We're only getting started. Please don't hesitate to reach out, you can reach my dLinks by just clicking my username!

hi everyone, I'm Mike Michelini, internet marketer and partner at Skyinclude. Found out about Handshake from a friend, Chris Moore, in late Oct 2020 and has consumed me since. Hope to help port more sites to handshake via skyinclude service and also spread the good word

w/
free videos and content. Also working on handshake.mercenary and can't wait to integrate this tech into that too!

(can't tell if this comment is on my thread or not? ) He is in the domain investing industry and heard about it at a Namescon - then he didn't spend much time on it, but heard it again in August/September and dabbled in it

his personal names and got more and more addicted ha.

ok, cool - yea seems I cannot see the thread 1 level up! this system is really slick though just a little bit smooting out on UX

You're seeing the pre-release version of Namer News so there will definitely be ux bugs but I'm glad you've been liking it so far! We'll get the bugs sorted out quickly :)

Are you a web dev? It should be straightforward but lmk if you have a website you want to integrate Handshake login with and we're happy to help! Here are docs:

Hey Namers it's Johnny here, community manager at Namebase. Prior to Handshake, I had absolutely zero involvement in the blockchain space but I fell in love with how Handshake makes it possible for me to host my personal website on just "johnnywu/" β€” no dots or anything β€” and I now exclusively wear Handshake gear at all times! During the very limited time I spend outside of Handshake, you can catch me playing basketball, playing piano, scuba diving, snowboarding, or practicing tai chi.

Excited to see everyone from the Namer Community here! Happy naming~

Thank you for your words, they are special for me. You were the first person I communicate inside the community and you trusted on me and you gave me access to Translate the LEarning Center. HAndshake Project has push me (LOL) to learn concepts and languages I never thought I could learn. We have a very mature and polite community and I'm very proud to invest time on this. Thank you!
