Welcome to Steemit chcornwell. The official FAQ can be found here and has A LOT of information https://steemit.com/faq.html - Also remember, Steemit is just ONE of the sites built that uses Steem the blockchain. You should also check out DTube and DSound for starters and if you're a gamer, Steem Monsters! There are many other cool apps but I can't list them all here, there's just too many! But I'd also like to mention Steempeak, it's a better blogging platform that has a lot of cool features. Welcome to the blockchain! :) Oh, and if you're interested in creating your own tokens or smart contracts, check Steem engine!
Hi @janne, I'd heard of DTube but thanks for the tip abour DSound which sounds like it might be better suited to my audio only content. I'll be sure to check it out. Regarding DTube, do Steemians post music with static video content as many folks do on YouTube or is that frowned upon?
