[Peerhub Update] Raffle Winners! / Upcoming Features / Holiday Gift Exchange?

Hey all,
I’m very sorry for the long delay for announcing the Peerhub raffle winners from a couple months ago! A lot of the things going on, but mainly it's my procrastination. I’ll make sure we don’t have a long delay for future raffles.

Raffle Winners

Here are the winners for those who bought something on Peerhub between Sept 20th - Oct 20th:

1st Place - @ned $40 SBD
2nd Place - @robrigo $20 SBD
3rd Place - @everlove $10 SBD
4th Place - @saramiller $5 SBD

Congratulations everyone and thanks so much for your support!!!

We’ll continue these raffle contests to include everyone that buys, lists items on Peerhub or helps by resteeming our posts!

Peerhub Feature Update

• We are pretty close to having the basic version of personalized/customized stores for Peerhub members. It will allow you to add a cover photo for your store and allow users to see a gallery view of just your items! You can also let others know about your store/personalized shop with your unique peerhub store url!

• You can also add your international addresses so I hope more people around the world start listing items!

  For Sellers: Since anyone globally can see your listings, please just add any shipping restrictions in your post description. (eg. FREE shipping in the Eurozone.)

  For Buyers: You should assume international sellers will have to add extra costs for shipping. Lastly if you are a Buyer you can go to 'Edit' in the Profile section and to ‘Local Radius’ to specify the mileage range for items that will display within your ‘Local’ dropdown filter.

Community Outreach & Catalogs

@anwenbaumeister is busy with a full-time job and building out her permaculture dream so I’m now going to have to find some help to carry on with Peerhub community outreach & catalogs.

Thanks so much for helping out thus far @anwenbaumeister!

If any of you have some spare time and interest to help Peerhub and help build the New Economy please let me know!

Holiday/Christmas Gift Exchange?

So I think it would be fun to do a Peerhub gift exchange! It seems many are busy these days, but if we can get at least 10 people interested in a gift exchange I think that it would be fun. We should probably do this by next Sunday?

Here are the simple guidelines I think would would work:

• List any item/service on Peerhub (List for $0 - generally valued no more than $20)
• Be creative with the gifts!
• Add your name to this post to indicate you want to participate
• We’ll draw numbers for each participant using a random number generator
• The lowest number is the first person to choose a gift item.
• Whoever is the person who gets his/her item chosen is the next person to choose a gift.
• You can’t choose your own gift.
• If the person whose item is chosen already has a gift, the person with the next lowest number will choose next.
• We’ll go around until everyone has a gift.

It may be too late to have the gifts shipped out by Christmas, but we should have this done by the 17th? We can use a Steemit.chat channel to coordinate the gift exchange at noon ET on the 17th? Any other suggestions are welcome!

So who wants to be part of the Holiday Gift Exchange?
