RE: Addressing Steemit's Social Confusion
I agree with so much being said here.., and greatly appreciate a post such as this... When I came to steemit I understood it as "some kind" of blogging platform. Im aware of all the other social media sites and to be honest -- I have a facebook, don't use it. I've got a few twitter accounts, don't use them. I've been to wordpress and reddit... This is just different -- it is unique. It is Steemit. I particularly liked the @nanzo-scoop comment -- having steem social. Keep and build on what it is now, if that's blogging, then like you said -- make it the best damn blogging site on the web. By adding the social aspect, you can cross promote to both people that are into blogging on a quality driven site.., and you can get people into social media, with the steem social site. Then you introduce each to the other. All of a sudden, you have people that came for social media, blogging their faces off -- and vice versa. Like I said, I don't frequent any other social or blogging sites -- but something about steemit kept me coming back. And, it wasn't the money, because I wasn't making any when I started.., and i still showed up everyday. I believe in this site. I don't personally know anybody at the top.., but what they have done so far, is pretty damn cool, with the potential to be it's own thing. CHEERS!
