It is going to be interesting to figure out if we can make this site have commercial desirability.
I do think we are in the right place at the right time, but we don't fit the mold of what people are used to when they invision "Social Media".

and thank god. social media is full of marketers still telling people to make 'content' -- we have to move so far passed that, i'm looking forward to seeing what hf20 and velocity will bring and what kinds of writers, creators and knowledge sharers will come then. i'm still super happy to have found steem and believe this is still the early years.
Trying to digest this, what do you mean btw?
i'm just jaded of the 'content creators' coming in. i've been in social in some shape or another working for a brand as an advocate and seen a massive influx of people saying they are social brand managers and community managers when last year they were doing something completely different. maybe it's my jadeness and i need to clean up my news feed but i see SO many people on upwork looking for video editors to 'clean up' their content and make it viral it's overwhelming. so if i was not clear, pre-coffee.
also i feel like we have pockets of people probably in the right places already, i'm fine for people to stay over there on facebook. they are mainly consumers not creators anyway, the internet is facebook in some senses to them i guess, i'd just like reddit to have steemit smt tokens bolted in to the comments and then it's game on! :)
Sign up -> Subscribe to communities (when it's out) -> Be engaged and thrive.
But yeah, different ballgame for sure. I don't think we can expect it to be pure "social media"
communities is gonna be nice, i'm hoping to find more people to collab with on projects because of it.
Russia has similar site to this, but without money motivation. There is a lot more interesting. People almost always comment your comment. You can make easely 70 comments per day. Join 5 - 10 good quality conversations.
And you know why? They have X10 user base.
