RE: Steem Use Cases: If the Blockchain is so PERMANENT, Why Isn't Someone Creating a Genealogy App?
Well I for one think it is an Excellent Idea! My family, both paternal and maternal are very much into genealogy and tracing our histories.
My Mothers Father didn't tell his children much of anything about his past, so we are at a dead end there.

Thank you @jerrytsuseer! I think it's one of those uses for blockchain technology that makes a lot of sense: reliability; a network built on user-generated content; accurate data storage; immutable (or at least accurate recording of all changes)... somebody just needs to build/code a front end that allows for the building of family trees... "posts" can easily be records of a person's life and include old photos that were scanned in.
Of course, it's more complicated than that... but at the same time, with genealogy, the "base layout" is ALWAYS the same.
