Ah yeah, trust me with a FT j-o-b, the website and Steemit will be PLENTY of work, hah. Actually a pretty cool idea with having that blog to share what you post on Steem. The "traditional" view , or at least how I thought of it seems to be blog first, Steem second...I'll have to consider that moving forward as I start posting more here (I've resolved not to post too often for the near future in favor of commenting, until I can build up a bit more traction - something I wrote about https://steemit.com/help/@jobsande/best-steemit-newbie-strategy-posting-vs-commenting).

True about the short shelf life, yep that is the big downside to taking a ton of time crafting a well-thought out post, editing, etc only to have it get 10 views, a couple quick comments, then be forgotten. This is exactly why I'm sticking to 95% commenting for now.

Thanks, it was my buddy and it was quite the experience :P I did go through something similar myself though, might have to make that a future post...
