RE: My 5 Fave Features of Busy

in #dtube7 years ago

Thanks I didn't realized what busy was :p
My question is, why are so many different apps emerging. Just seeing the tools is overwhelming.
For example, why did @Busy was created? I mean, why wasn't @steemit upgraded instead? I say this mainly because of branding.
Newcomers may be off-put buy steemit as a first impression and maybe wouldn't if what they saw was Busy, you know? And for a newb what's the probability of hearing about busy or other steem apps in the first hour/day/week?

That's one of the interesting opportunities of the Steem Blockchain, is that other people/companies can create interfaces to display content. So while Steemit is currently the biggest, and was created by the same team that built the blockchain, it was really just meant to kickstart things and act as a first entry point. Over time, hopefully more sites will allow people to create accounts on their site instead of Steemit. Agree that it can be very confusing though, because you don't immediately realize that your same content could be showing up on a bunch of different websites.
