I have never been that involved into social media. I am actually trying to avoid them since 32 years...yep, i am 32. But i discovered Steemit one month ago and decided to give it a try.
The discovery
I work as a security consultant in tiny expensive Switzerland. My daily job is to test security issues in my client systems and applications. I like to think I am making the life of bad guys harder... anyhow.
As part of my job, I had to prepare a presentation for one of our event. the goal was to explain ransomware and what are the technic used to encrypt disk content. As I was doing some research about how to find some information on the dark net, i followed slowly a path that brought me to social network and more specifically Steemit. I've never heard about it before and started to do a bit a research in order to understand the concept and how it is linked to the block-chain. After a few hours of reading and something like 20 different tabs open on my browser, i decided to create an account. And here I am...
The first post
So yeah, as said, social network was never my thing and posting on blog even less. However, the concept of Steemit kind of interested me right away. And since the more we post, the more successful it will be, then here i am. Trying to find inspiration for a very first post. Not that easy but i guess I can only improve.
On purpose it will not be the most interesting post ever. First of all because i always have issue with open writing and chit-chatting about myself and second of all, because i am more or less just posting for posting. So it does not have to be interesting, does it? At least not for a first one i guess. And doing so, i can only improve.
Me, myself and I ...
... is the topic i hate to discuss. I always end up speaking about these kind of things that i like to do, Sunday afternoons spent doing nothing but chilling, normal busy day that i spend in the office and what kind of book i like to read... Nothing fancy and usually nothing interesting. I always have the tendency to prefer when people ask me questions, fire up!
On purpose i will also not say too much now in a first post but keep the opportunity to write more. I will probably post a lot about traveling and sharing my explorer adventure. I also have in mind to write a few ethical hacking tutorial and tips and tricks about security tools i use on a daily basis. Last category that will also show up from time to time will be review of books i read. If you have any wishes or even better, topics to inspire me, please comment below.
So what?
First post finished, i have the feeling it is the most useless ever written. But it was my first and the result is, I start to love Steemit.
Keep in touch!
