Great tool, but do you realize that it's only going to emphasize the "pyramidal" structure steemit already has ?
Minnows will struggle to get noticed on your tool: you should add a bit of randomness for minnows profiles and promote some cool posts which have a low user-grade.

Thanks for your comment @sebastian. But I have to disagree with you. It's exactly the opposite. 70% of Viral Score (I probably should write a separate post how it's calculated) is made of your post's quality (Words Count + Photos)... So if you spent some time, wrote a long detailed post, spiced it with photos - your Viral Score will be high enough. The reason I made SteemUps is to spotlight posts that are top quality and should be rewarded for writer's put efforts and time.
As I mentioned in my original post, I was sick of finding new upvote-worthy posts (I think most of us are). Instead of creating new content, I was searching for original, detailed posts in the ocean of memes, short TMZ-like posts or links to crypto news. SteemUps simply solves this problem.
@saulius Thank you for that post. I upvote your post because of the work your putted in that tool, the fact that it has at it's base a good intention and because with some improvement it might yield some interesting information, but I must add that at this moment, there seems to be a lot better and efficacious ways to curation right now. You can look at my Ultimate guide to Steemit part 2 to have some ideas! Again thank you for that post!
@teamsteem First of all, thanks for the upvote. I've read your post and beside of UpvoteBot (which is cancer for our community) didn't find anything related to curration. Could you explain in more detail what did you have in mind?
I use steemwatch.com to know exactly when the most popular content creator are posting. When they do I go read their post as soon as they are publish. I also use steemstats.com for some of the same reasons and more.
