Wow. Cool points of regard and offering's for fellow steemian's @itchykitten
Steemit has been pretty awesome experience for me thus far. I think the potential is massive. And i really like the structure....it's like everyone is incentivized to not be a dick...mostly...and i see this as a fascinating experiment in how we can coexist and ways that are mostly excellent for everyone. I kind of see the social network aspect of steemit as 'the tip of the iceberg' and that the real thing here....is creating a new world economy. I'm a bit of a dreamer and an eternal optimist...so ya, i like to think Big.
recently I've been thinking more and more about 'reciprocity'. And this resulting with me questioning 'is there such a thing as Reciprocal Economics?'
Since then I've started a project here on steemit where I am offering a win/win upvote service for fellow steemian's. My thinking was that if you are going to pay for an upvote - you should know what you are getting for it...and it shouldn't be a 'gamble' as to whether it works out. I'm still early on in this experiment, but things are going good and the feedback has been pretty cool.
I would like to turn my participations on steemit into a full time vocation. I love writing and I love connecting with people and sharing cool ideas...and collaborating on projects. I really do regard steemit as a small town feel yet world wide thing.
STEEM ON and Best Regards.
Savor every moment with your Girlfriend :)

hey WorldClassPlayer!
Thanks for taking a moment to share your thoughts...I feel like Reciprocal Economics is definitely a thing :P Regardless of what textbooks it may or may not be written in!
I studied Anthropology in school for two years before I quit, and in that discipline they are very focused on Gift Exchange of pre-industrial societies. There is a heap-ton of evidence that for 99% of human history the majority of our 'economy' ran off of various forms of Gifts.
Totally!!!! That's a great way to put it. It feels that way to me to!
Thanks for the reminder...Our cat just got ran over by a car this week, I felt really shocked out of my normal rhythms, and I'm taking the opportunity to reframe some things. I want to appreciate our time together. Or as Modest Mouse says it...You just never ever know.
