Amazing to see how steemit’s approach to a social media platform differs so drastically from Twitter and Facebook. The value of the content is shared amongst us steemers rather than going into the pockets of the executives (ie: Mark Zuckerburg). Although I would argue that Mark Zuckerburg and his wife use their money for good causes (charities and medical research). That’s besides the point. We are sitting on a gold mine and steemit offers us (the community) value. It draws us in to share and create and in turn drives up the value. I’ve spent more time on this platform reading than I have spent on Facebook in the past 6 years.
@willshetzel you bring up a very good point about all the value (and money) going back to the users instead of back into the company such as is the case with Facebook, and just about every other social media platform. I also have found myself using this platform much more frequently since discovering it about a month ago compared to Facebook now. I think other users will also feel the same way once its discovered :)
The Steem Power compounds like interest in a bank account would but way faster because activity on the network (posting, up-voting, and curating content) gives you more Steem.
I agree! Although I've only been on this platform for the past month its rewards are already starting to show greatly! Can't wait to see what this platform can bring throughout this new year!

There's really interesting content on Steemit, I think. Random stuff and real people from all over the world make for some cool Steemit surfing.

you are right on point, steem has done 300 percent in less than 48hrs. wowzer
Incredible but the compounding part is the real kicker. i.e. being active on the Steem blockchain and earning Steem Power.
@birdinc what do you mean by the compounding part? Do you mean that your earnings are worth more over time?

Good good post. Nece bos
I actually miss the old STEEM logo art. I love this style so much.
Me too.
