This is my intro post! Please say hi to me in the comments :)

HELLO!

I'm @summerskin (named after one of my favorite Deathcab songs). I was originally going to be named @beginnersblood (named after my favorite big brother Australia off camera heroine) but unfortunately I signed up to Steemit on my iPhone, and the iPhone ate my password, so sorry, that righteous username is lost to the sands of time...

I live in Oregon, USA and I DO NOT belong to any social media... (except for Steemit now). The reason is I always thought it was kind of DUMB! I used to work in tech in the Bay Area, and it always made me sad that people were making valuable content and not getting paid for it, so you can imagine my surprise when I found out a place like Steemit existed. 

So I'm here to make friends, rock my favorite blog subjects (politics, philosophy, beauty, health, home decor, etc) and add value to the Steemit community. If you all like me I would love to get even further involved in the community and learn from you all! 

PLEASE SAY HI IN THE COMMENTS ;)

Hello !I am @minnowhelp, nice to meet you Summerskin,
I do track some @booster upvote runs and try to figure out, if this booster upvote really giving a value.
With this upvotes you can earn some money here, if they provide a value. That's what I am testing for new Steemians !

Im my session#1 I tracked amongs I tracked amongst other users the upvote boost of @triverse, he boosted his post value to $8.82 , which was $5.08 more than before the booster upvote !
And that with just an investment of $1.96 !

So if you want to see the results of my work, feel free to follow me @minnowhelp

Hello @summerskin. Welcome to Steemit. I am David. I wish you have a happy journey here.

Thank you David. It's going to be an interesting ride for sure!

Right on, I'm like you, 100% exclusive to Steemit social media.

We're the smart ones! I hate all the other platforms, you can waste so much time on them and have nothing to show for it. Plus they always have some weird disclaimer, like, we now own all your pictures and can use them for any purpose we see fit, thanks, bye! It's the same reason I hate clothes with designer labels on them. It's like I just spent money on this shirt, I'm not going to wear it around and give you free advertising as well!

TLDR; thank you for saying hi!

We share the exact same views. I refuse to let those mega billion dollar medias violate my privacy and make money off my back. Let them have the sheep, for I am a wolf 🐺

If you're a wolf, I'm a part of your pack.

Hey, welcome to Steemit. Your new username is also great. :)

When I arrived on Steemit a few weeks ago I was very confused how this all works. I read through hundreds of articles about the dynamics of Steemit and finally wrote this The Ultimate Guide for Steemit Beginners: Money, Posts, Design, Topics, Bots, Behaviour, Community and Apps. I wrote it for YOU. Normally I wouldn't post my links into others comments unasked. But the massive positive feedback from my readers made it my mission to help newcomers finding this post quickly. Feel free to ask any questions. I will try to answer them all. I apologize if you are not interested in this and I will not further disturb you.

Welcome to Steemit! Pretty cool that this is your first, or only social media! You have been right to doubt the parasitic model which has so far dominated the world by sucking up peoples content and selling them to advertisers... with "spying, for free!", as Eben Moglen would say. Best of luck. Steemians do 'roll deep' as you say. ;) welcome to the club.

Yeah! I'm all about this decentralized revolution. There is no way this is not the future...

I hope you will bring some interesting content to the community, looking forward to some politics and philosophy posts! Following

ha! I will try not to disappoint :)

I just signed up.. well no, actually I signed up a few weeks ago, but only now I'm starting to post something. Nice post, am curious about your upcoming content, so I followed you!
