especially since I get the impression most of the buzz and interest on here is directed at cryptocurrencies and more generalized interests. Homesteaders, Preppers, Permaculture people and all kinds of eco sustainable people could come to Steemit and do just that. It just feels like the number of people on here is limited and many people who could be adding content on here instead of fb, instagram etc but aren't. I've reached out to the permies.com forum people, Curtis Stone, Ben Falk and Peter McCoy (of Radical Mycology) I think if some movers and shakers joined, they could bring their tribes and then things get fun and interesting! I somehow don't get the feeling that this will fade away like Google Wave though, I think once more people understand how it works, it'll be great.

Getting Curtis Stone on here would be really good.

I know right!? He says he will look into it but he is currently up to his neck in growing season in Kelowna, may be the perfect thing for winter though when he has time. I even wrote this: https://steemit.com/food/@ecoknowme/do-you-know-the-urban-farmer-how-curtis-stone-makes-usderiouusd-profit-farming-in-the-city to try to lure him over. We shall see.

Here's hoping.
