    I would advise people to try thinking up solutions that can be implemented now using the tools at hand while considering that communities are coming relatively soon. TBH solutions that require alteration of the development pipeline are not just unlikely to happen, but not a good idea. Steemit.com is a content sharing platform with a filtering mechanism (stake-weighted upvotes), comments, and new features which will be coming more rapidly going forward. If the existing platform can be leveraged we will be able to move that much faster. Unless, of course, people want to build Steem-based apps that solve these problems, in which case we say, "Steem On!" :)

    Perhaps the better question is, will it be too taxing on the network to do so? Not too sure about this.

    If it's too taxing for a decentralized network to grow a network for which they derive most of the benefits, then we have a problem.

    It's interesting, because this is also a simultaneous test of the incentive mechanisms of Steem. I'm placing my bets on the community.

    That's a great way to think about it. And I think it's possible on this network. Would be great to have designers, developers test / build certain prototypes out. But maybe certain parts of the community have been trying this out.. activities around are not always all that apparent :)
