RE: What I've Learned My First Week & Things I Would Change (+ my lil steem animation!)

in #steemit8 years ago

Welcome to Steemit, glad it's been a great experience to date! Love the animation, I had to watch a few cycles to really take in the "smooch." It's wonderful!

Have you come across Busy.org yet in your explorations? Personally, I do still tend to just use Steemit.com, but Busy is an alternative Steem "front end" that does have a built in messaging system, and an inbuilt bookmarking option. You might find it even more enjoyable than Steemit currently, but all the Steem sites are evolving at rapid pace. I'm sure most of your needs will be met soon regardless!

Thanks Bryan! No I've never hear of it but just opened it in a new tab so I'll have to check it out. Does it reward it's users with a crypocurrency as well? Which site do you like better?
Thanks for suggestion! Hope to be seeing you around either steemit or busy.org :)

That's the wonderful thing, it essentially IS Steemit! The Steem blockchain is open source and anyone can build a new website that uses it. All the fundamental rules of the Steem currency, rewards, etc. are the same. It's like putting a new "skin" or template on Steemit.
You already have your Busy account! www.busy.org/@mrslauren

You'll also find Steepshot, an app that uses Steem in an Instagram type format, Zappl is launching soon with a Twitter style service on the Steem blockchain, ChainBB turns Steemit into a message board/ forum style presentation.

The only thing to be aware of is sites like these can set themselves to take a percentage of the rewards generated through the activity on their site. This is important to give them a revenue model and way of developing further. If reasonable it's more than fair for all the great things these sites do for Steem!

Wow so many great options!! Thank you so much for sharing, I'm excited to check them out!

Woah, everything about busy.org is so much cleaner is user friendly. I already love the layout so much better. It's jus so much easier to access and get around. Thank you for telling me about it!!
