Wow, this is absolutely wonderful!
I'm so jealous when I see very successful blogs which are not related to Steem(it).
It would be perfect to seamlessly "infiltrate" in such communities.
For example https://tangosix.rs/ aviation nuts enthusiasts from Yugoslavia. 20M people who can possibly read that and 200 comments?! Even more on some texts.
It would be like a dream to call such communities to get on board.
In order to achieve that:
- their favourite playground must stay the same (visually)
- the process must be very simplified
- My maybe crazy dream: the ability to post via "Guest Account"
Do you want to comment now? Good, you will post with "guest" posting key
And there should be a small checkbox, would you like to post as Steemian? Hm, what is Steem? It looks cool... I could do that...
Do you think it's possible/ viable?
Vote, ReSteem, Witness Vote ;)
Would be great and I believe that Engrave is going in the direction which will allow us to do that.
I'm considering it from the very beginning and it will be introduced after some most necessary changes in a dashboard. Basically, the idea is to allow people to post comments without Steem account. Technically, it could be posted by blogger's account or @engrave account with additional pieces of information about a real author and blog (it could be rendered then as a guest account on blogs or something).
And we see a great opportunity here - it's possible to onboard most active commentators to Steem network - this comments could be used to "earn for an account" process. We could identify real authors by email and if this specific email earns more than 3 STEEM with their comments, we could create an account for him for free and send notification! And of course, those comments will be moderated to prevent spam or something :)
Yes! People are impulsive creatures. They want to say something Now, not in 2 hours or 2 weeks, but now.
Also, you know the rules of Pareto distribution, 1-10-90 % rules and so on. Most of the people will be just consumers. They want to read. 1/10 of them wants to Like, 1/10 of them wants to argue and 1/10 of them wants to actually write something.
Imagine a small town, 30,000 people. How many bloggers there will be? Well, maybe 30 at best, other people are living their daily boring lives. 2-3 photographers, 2-3 makeup beauty girls, 2-3 adventurers, doctors, tech enthusiasts - and that's it
Even those who write can't make more than 1 Steem/day on average, so why bothering at all to post comments for example via a private account. Who cares to hassle for 5$ per year or so.
Whish you good luck, if you need any help for "poking" people to join - call me :D
