RE: ☕Coffee Talk with Carrie - E10☕ - Twinkies Immortality?

Love you, girl! You're always on your A-game. This is great stuff. I haven't visited you in like a week....or more. I need to keep better tabs! I'm not supporting my steemit friends like I should! It's been a crazy week. Shame shame shame. Especially when there's good posts out there like this one to acknowledge. :0)

Awe! Thanks, @littlescribe!

I'm the same way. In fact, I was thinking about a post reminding everyone (me included) that Steemit isn't set up like other social media.

For example, on Fakebook, NO MATTER when I signed in the first things in my feed would be folks I interacted with the most (or that they wanted me to see...). This pretty well ensured I'd see family and good friend posts regardless of if they posted yesterday or two minutes prior.

On Steemit our feeds show us what's happening in REAL TIME. So, unless I'm on exactly when you're posting, I'm gonna miss it. 😕

Really, the ONLY way I see things is when folks comment on MY posts. That's a sudden (friendly) reminder that I've haven't been there for a while. I end up going to their blog and playing 'catch up'... and somehow, I feel oh-so-guilty. 😕

Until some super smart dev creates a way for us to have favorites or something, I NEED the reminders.

I mean, sure... after a few days I'll probably think about ya (if you've made an impression) and go check on ya. But, honestly, commenting and interacting is the way.

I'm not as good at it yet as I'd like to be. But.... I'm working on it. 😍


Thank you again for watching my videos! I feel like they keep getting better, from all aspects. I'm excited to see what I'm putting out in a month. 😉

I think it's actually OK this way. It's like Costco--how they change up the layout of the groceries so you don't go to the same aisle to get the same stuff. Forces customers out of their comfort zone so they spot goods they may not otherwise.

But the best way is really in the comments. And chatrooms. I try to just stay connected with my favs, but I have so many, I forget some weeks....

I like that. Being forced to try new things. Cause sometimes my zone of comfort is downright inviting!
