As far as just using SteemSQL to browsed posts (and not to browse the various other types of data found there), check out steemsearch.com. This is what Mark developed the health check shared here for - it is already a pretty amazingly full featured way to browse for new posts / posters. And it shows the current SteemSQL database lag when you visit it, so it is a quick and easy way to check :)
I have a health check of sorts on steemsearch which uses the following query
select top(1) datediff(minute, created, getutcdate()) as diff from comments nolock where depth=0 order by created desc
Thanks!
I try to put it to good use!
