RE: Steemit is NOT a Social Media Platform - So What Is It?
I think the problem comes when Steemit is compared to FB or G+, where people can interact with their friends. I have posted before on how users can just interact with their friends, but few seem to do that; they see the money and hope for riches.
Upvoted and added to the next MAP Resteem post.
thanks for the resteem. FB and G+ are not publishing platforms, there are social media sites and I think understanding the difference is very important for moving forward
True, but I was thinking of all those who promote Steemit on those platforms precisely as an alternative.
I still have the feeling that Steemit is turning into an aggregator of all the other Steem platforms and apps being developed. To be purely a blogging platform would require some changes to the UI; even some editorial previewing such as Utopian.
It's a discussion worth having, and if there is a coherent wish-list of what bloggers would like to see, then we can find out if it feasible on Steemit or whether another front-end is needed.
oh I like where this is going. a front-end for blogging only could be awesome
Well... make a wish!
Too late here, and too tired, but one thing that needs careful thinking (and careful encoding) is whether a cohort of curators is needed, how they would function and how they would be chosen. I think a curation vote (or factor) would be needed that is independent of rewards.
Also, need to separate one's blog stream from resteems.
Also, need to see trending by comments as well as (possibly) trending by curation-factor.
Also... oh, enough for now! :-)
are you working on this already ? Sounds like it is something you have been thinking about?
Even in interaction it still subjective to the person you are interacting with
How can u explain the people that are celebs on youtube and make so much money without interaction? And they in turn dont suppport anyone
