If you've ever come across a tip here on the Creators Network by soaringeagle, you know his writing voice is as unmistakable as his super-long dreadlocks. He must type about 7,000 words per minute. He has submitted a ton of tips! He seems to follow some of the Rastafari-style patois that you'd expect from someone who's been growing dreadlocks for 22 years. (22 years!!!)
It's clear that soaringeagle has his own unique style, and he's been sharing it on the Creators Network for two years now. In that time, he's built up a successful network to teach newbies how to grow their own dreadlocks, and he's even started a network for his native Philly locale. He knows a surprising amount about SEO, and he's always generous about sharing his tips and tricks with other NCs. He also has a great way of considering all the pros and cons of a new Ning feature that gives Ning employees excellent feedback about what we're building.
Maybe soaringeagle has helped you out at some point in the past. Now's a great time to say thanks. Feel free to paste in a nice high five or fun pic or crazy animated GIF, sparkles, unicorns, rainbows — anything that will let soaringeagle know that his contributions on Creators have been very welcome.
We crowned him a Ning Superstar and asked him a few questions. As always, each Ning Superstar receives a complimentary three-month Ning Pro subscription. Read the Q&A with soaringeagle and find out just how long those dreadlocks are — and what he does in his free time. Thanks, soaringeagle!

I thought only Ning Council members were beta testing the DS.
Permalink Reply by Nick Barr on June 7, 2012 at 2:47pm Hey! It was a while ago but iirc we started with the council and then opened it up to people on Creators, we had a big group and everything and whacked a bunch of bugs before rolling it out to everyone.
