I Drew This Back In 2013 / 2014

Does it look like Steemit?

Came across this file while consolidating some folders earlier. I've always imagined that complex tasks could be broken down into smaller tasks for market fulfilment. Tasks are currently implicit. We (market actors) assume our roles and try to improve the platform in our own ways.

What about explicit tasks, similarly powered by both users and markets outside of Steem?

I'd like to imagine someone playing a word game, levelling up through the ranks, and may not even know their gaming activity is contributing to parts of something more complex, maybe:-

  • Part of a crowdsourced effort to write an article / book / copy.
  • Part of a crowdsourced effort to determine if content is generated by human or bot.
  • Etc, etc.

Basically to be able to gamify any microtasks that people love doing and somehow connect them to complex tasks. For fun and profit. Maybe I drew this because I saw a friend clocking in hundreds of hours playing Match-3 games and all that on his iPhone.

World domination.

Community governance is basically talking and forming opinions of each other. So that's quite like Steemit's posting and curating game, right? Is communication and curation here all about building towards a greater Steemit? Maybe?

Sometimes I don't even know what I'm talking about.

I don't think Ned or Dan wanted to create a social media site. I think their heads are in cryptocurrency and expanding blockchain technology. Hence, their willingness to let others innovate and run with that ball

Yeah everyone can do whatever they want here ;)
I think the call to make it like reddit instead of FB is a good call. Well, some social features are welcome, but still i think the reddit approach is best. Voluntary feeds. (not force fed like fb's feed algos)

you're right - good point

The notion of problem solving in blockchain (and "word games" as you note) is just fascinating stuff. Imagine if games like angry birds or candy crush were just a front for community governance and profit.

Yeah.. I guess the bare nature here kind of reflects that, you can build any meta-game on this..

When you're in front of the pc with a charting software u dont know how to use.. lol
