This is entertaining, it's almost like we're speaking different languages, hah. SNS stands for Social Networking Sites, like LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter etc. I just had to search for the meanings of both VC and OATV! It's clear (and interesting!) that we operate in very different worlds. What sort of things are you interested in?
Haha that's wild. I'm very interested in tech & vc (venture capital, though I guess you've picked up on that by now haha). Especially interested in food tech, decentralized systems, and community platforms (like this one)! What about you?
Interesting! What sort of decentralised systems do you mean? Like companies and other kinds of management structures?
As for me, my interests lie largely in British politics (although that obviously overlaps with global politics too) as well as general life in Japan, where I currently live. I have a mild hobbyist's interest in various periods of history, and etymology too. As you can see, rather different from your areas of expertise!
Visited a friend in Tokyo on vacation once, liked it so got a job teaching out here, then met my husband, and basically just haven't left! You sound like you live in a big city - I take it you're somewhere in the US?

Hey Ben! Welcome to imzy :D I joined through a friend who made me curious by talking about it on twitter. How about you?
Thanks! I found it from Bryce Roberts (@bryce on twitter). He's got a community on here that's like an AMA. imzy.com/bryce
I'm afraid I have no idea who that is, and neither Google nor his SNS profiles are helping me figure it out!
He's a VC, runs OATV. This should provide a bit more info: http://oatv.com/team.html . What's SNS?

More like Bitcoin & blockchain tech, but that's cool! How'd you wind up in Japan?

A friend that I correspond with a lot on Facebook turned me on to Imzy. I love it here!
Cool! Thanks for sharing!
Found it from an author I enjoy, Kevin Hearne!
That's awesome, Kevin is great!
He is indeed! Got to meet him in Orlando during a book signing. Follow him on Twitter and Facebook and Instagram!
Wow, awesome!
a random email with an invite from a friend who didn't explain anything
Hahah and you still decided to join?
i'm designed to be tht person who'll die first in a horror movie. :D
Hahahaha
From a Tumblr mutual.
@greenie introduced me to it when we were in a chatroom together.
I have no idea how I got here. But how can I win your money?
Found out about it through tumblr. Quite a few people are jumping ship to come here from tumble since it's turning so toxic.
