Some wonderful ideas.
I, too, am bullish on Steemit. This is going to be enormous. Like you, I dont like the comparisons to Facebook. My distaste for that isnt because of the size but because this place is more like Reddit than FB. Reddit has roughly 250M users so if Steemit can get that big, it will be a huge force (the place has 350K users give or take). What would even a 10 fold increase do to this place...and it would still make it about 1/8 the size of Reddit.
The upside is huge.
