Hi @zombabejoy - if you're after thought-provoking, interesting content on Steemit, may I suggest @mattclarke ? His posts are genuinely well-thought out and will make you think. Make sure you read them to the end, because he will often grab you with a 'hook', that will stifle you, but by the end, he has tied everything together, and will leave you, well... thinking!!
I agree with you also... FB is not a real drawcard anymore. Too many 'fake lives', and not enough real content from honest posters. Steemit has me!
Thanks for the plug, Steve :)
A handy trick, @zombabejoy, is to go to the profile of somebody well established and type "/feed" after their name in the address bar.
steemit.com/@mattclarke/feed
Will show you steemit through my eyes; enjoying the benefit of the work I've put in finding interesting authors.
Scroll through and follow the ones you like :)
Hey @mattclarke & @steveblucher
I really appreciate both your comments! This is a huge help and I always love hearing from aussies - as I mention, I sort of miss having irl friends posting, but hearing from aussies really makes me feel at home!
Thanks again!
@just2random @datascience and @mazzle are in Melbourne, from memory.
@aussieninja is traveling in the US but originally Melbourne too?
@choogirl knows everyone, so she could rattle off a few more.
Don't forget @kevinli
The Melbourne group is growing quickly. I'd say we'll be the biggest by the end of the year. ;-)
Adelaide's not locked in here with you; you're locked in here with Adelaide.
Hi @zombabejoy!
@mattclarke is right on the money. I'm from Melbs but not currently in Melbs but @datascience and @mslillypilly are creating a Melbourne Meetup in Feb 2018... but even if you aren't keen to join the meetup, he's very nice and super lovely and we've all got a bit of a gang going.
Aw thanks all!!!
This has been really nice of you guys! And also so lovely to meet you all! I really appreciate it !
