Discovering the MoTaverse: 10 steps to get started

One thing Rosie and I often acknowledge yet sometimes forget is that the MoTaverse moves fast.

We’re always shipping new features and running new initiatives. So it’s hard to keep up!

This memory is here to help. Follow these 10 steps to discover more of the MoTaverse without feeling overwhelmed. Each step includes a stretch step if you feel like doing more.

2. Visit the Moments page and see what folks are sharing. Like a post and leave a comment. Stretch step: Post a memory.
