RE: Don't follow me, I'm lost 3 (musings and rants on price and value and ephemera)

Nice write up. Digital currencies will be around I think for a long time, as for bitcoin, like you said it has spawned a lot of children, and everitt is a good writer. I haven't started his "Q" series, nor "the Yardissil Highway" yet, but his "Ride the Lightning" was very enjoyable also.

    Okie dokie... wish I could upvote your reply more than once. I had no clue everitt had more out there beyond Soulstone, it's follow on, and the books listed on Amazon. Since I've become a commited everitt fan your post has a great deal of value to me.

    Thanks for the vote, the reply, and the content thereof.

    Hey, how do I get a look at a larger version of your avatar image? I can't figure out how to figure out what you're showing.

    Regards,
    Rick

      My avatar is the head shot of my chihuahua puppy granite, I don't know how to make the icon bigger so here he is:

      And do't worry about the votes, use them for more important things, you need to use those intial votes for content where you may get a bigger vote back. Along with everitt, @alexbeyman has some good stories, along the horror/strange line, and he gives a pretty nice vote on good comments.

      Hey Granite,

      My aren't you handsome! I'm sure your dad will tell you I said so.

      @bashadow, while I appreciate the advice on my votes the only thing I'm going to be able to use them for is a quick and dirty way of marking content I approve of. Did I mention I'm not very good at following good advice?

      Thanks for the lead to @alexbeyman. I'll follow it the next time I feel in need of some strange.

      What does a good Steemian call that number that appears in parentheses after the Steem ID? Mine is (37) and yours is (56).

        Those numbers would be your reputation score. It used to sort of indicate that you had a good reputation, but not so much any more. It does somehow in all the steemit algorithm for rewards has an effect but I really don't know how it is factored in. Right now I think the Reputation Score is pretty meaningless when it comes to judging a person Reputation.

        Got it.

        I'm a stock market addict, so EVERYTHING relates back to the market somehow. Just like any other metric this Reputation Score thingy has to be evaluated in the right way to be useful. I may have more to say about that in some future blog but for now I'm happy to learn what its called.

        Time for some serious Stonesoul reading. The world will have to wait for me to share any more wisdom until after I plow through a potful of episodes. Now all I have to do is remember where I fell asleep at last night.

        Be well,
        Rick
