OCD DAILY - Issue #267

Welcome to the 267th issue of @OCD Daily!

Issue #267 highlights content from ten (10) Steemit Content Creators! The OCD team continues its search throughout Steemit to find you the undervalued gems, as provided by relatively new users.

Today our curators found ten new pieces of original content! We strive to find works that are created by newer Steemit users, that may not have the audience with which to share their quality content. @OCD strives to help provide that audience and intends to showcase Steemit users who put in the extra effort to create creative, original content.

The @OCD nomination process

A curator will FIND a piece of work (typically from newer users). Within 24 hours that piece has been submitted from the curator to the @OCD team, curator votes are tallied, and the pieces with the most votes are included in the compilation.

We encourage you to visit these blogs and show these great Steemians your support and encouragement.

If you enjoyed their work, give them a Follow or maybe even say Hello!

All of the content chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is universally appreciated and valued by our curators making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.

Our next nomination of the day is from @the-veggie-sloth

Steemfest is not far away. This year it takes place in Krakow, Poland. As a local the-veggie-sloth has prepared a wonderful safety guide for all the Steemians who will be attending Steemfest this year to keep your experience as enjoyable as possible since only one misstep sometimes can ruin the whole trip. There is nothing to worry about tho, you will be in good company, but remember always better be safe than sorry.

With the smoked steak-salt that @avisor bought from @bearded-benjamin some days ago he made some amazing looking salad with some tasty steak slices. In his post he explains how you can do such a salad yourself and ilustrates it with some food porn. Bon Appetit !!!

In this post @rosemaryoneill is discussing "yellow journalism", the current "news feeds" culture and poses a very good question of how much of all these "news" do we really need? Read more to find out :)

Our next nomination of the day is from @francisftlp

@francisftlp posted an article drawing a portrait of the actor’s Will Smith. She is Venezuelan Steemian. @francisftlp seems to be better at drawing women than men, but challenged for skill up. I thought that the portrait drawing by her was similar to Will Smith I saw in the movie. Why do not you see what kind of portrait it is?
