This looks really interesting Dan. It feels more like a social network to me. I recently left Facebook (after taking a break). There was lots I liked (the chance to connect, learn, share, etc.) but just too much I didn't like (the effect on mental health, the invasion of privacy, the questionable ethics, etc.). I'm sure I'm not alone. Is part of the move you've made here to capitalise on this feeling?
Dan Lewis
@garethkthomas Yeah I've got fedup of junk "feeds". I wanted to create a place where you could actually find communities to be apart of from a learning sense & that was privacy focused.

@danlewistech Sounds exciting. Looking forward to watching it grow.

Hi all, I'm Dan, founder of Stryve (Formally Digital Profile). Over the last 6 months the business has been going through a transformation process, evaluating who we are, why we exist, and what we’re trying to achieve. We’ve created the foundations to help us grow, it’s time to take our vision to the next step! Our new platform you will be able to post, rate, suggest learning resources & ask for career guidance from the community. You’ll be able to follow friends and peers through their learning journey, and find out what people are learning. We’ll match you to relevant career opportunities, courses, books, meetups, people, and much more. This is a new chapter and I welcome any feedback.

What stage of career is this best suited for, Dan?
Dan Lewis
@neilcocker Great question. Its for any level. People are posting learning material from all different levels. In fact one of the features you can say what level you think it's best for.

@danlewistech Great news. Hope it goes well!

Dan - this looks awesome! Interested to know what made you pivot into learning platform from digital CVs ? Thanks Baf
Dan Lewis
@product_wow We always wanted to do more with learning, just never knew how we wanted to do it. The profile CV and jobs will still be part of the platform but a secondary outcomes rather than primary.
Scott Goddard
Think this looks great. What sort of things are people sharing and posting?
Dan Lewis
@scott_goddard2 Could be anything from a question around tech to people recommending blogs, articles, podcasts, books, meetups, ect to help guide others.

As an avid Quora reader I can definitely see the need for this - love it!
Dan Lewis
@elliot_thomas Quora was one of the sites we researched :)
Brooke Williams
Hey Dan, love the look of the product and the name. What type of content should I be posting and can businesses post content?
Dan Lewis
@brooke_williams Good questions, content posts can be blogs, articles, podcasts, books, videos, ect that could help someone else improve their skills/knowledge base. We will have a feature for businesses in the near future to post to communities but very limited on what they can post. Not to interfere with the community aspect.

Such a good tool for the technical among us, who don't want a technical interface when discovering, learning, looking for subject matter experts and work. A great place to connect. And knowing that it puts privacy, transparency and user control first just adds to the sense of this being a safe place to collaborate. Certainly recommend.
Dan Lewis
@timd79 Thanks for the feedback Tim. Glad you like.
