### LBRY.tech Update
Weve recently hired additional help to shape our lbry.tech technical resource and its design and development is progressing quickly. Developers will be able to interact with a live LBRY daemon directly from the website and access various technical content like documentation on how to contribute, how to develop and other technical resources. Follow along the development on our github repository and check out an early preview below (disregard the poor design, its getting a facelift!). Our goal is to launch an early version of this site by the end of May, which will include the long awaited LBRY whitepaper in draft form.

### Favorite Creators Contest in Discord
After not receiving any response from Issac Arthur, we then reached out to [VetRanch](https://www.youtube.com/user/VetRanch) via multiple channels. This effort also came up empty, and we moved onto the 3rd highest voted favorite creator which was [Philip Defranco](https://www.youtube.com/user/sxephil). We will give Philip a few more days before moving onto the next highest voted channel, which is [Richard Hall](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQwCjFkhLbdpsu1xUDm7oGA). A couple community members have volunteered to improve on our messaging, so well give it another honest effort if we continue to be unsuccessful in reaching out to some of the more popular YouTubers!
### Meetups and College Campus Initiatives - Get Involved! {#meetup-update}

Natalie Mitchell was delighted to attend Boston Colleges second *Hack the Heights* hackathon event on behalf of LBRY. Students from all Boston area Colleges came together to rapidly “hack” together creative projects and compete for prizes.
