First of all, I thank all the Steemit Team & the great work from @steemcurator01 for his immense contribution as the first curator among all the curators. Indeed he has demonstrated beyond doubt that he is much experienced to fit this job.

I think it very good extending this ideas to the whole household of Steemit, since one head cannot decide an important matter. I have many ideas and opinions to express here, but much has been covered by my Dear Sister @cryptokannon, very dedicated Steem Greeter. The task is heavy but the servants are too small as the Bible will put. In this respect many ideas ring in our mind as @steemitblog rightly raised here; what could be the main reason many people are reluctant to apply for the POD work? It can be so many factors that aren't based on one reason. One would say it is because of time factor, others would say the resource or the reward is scanty, other group of thought would also say that is because of stressful nature of the work or the work load. Any of the above can be the reason why many people aren't applying. In my area as Country Curator, about #195 Countries in the World, which possibly we may find Steemians in all the Countries, it is only me who is a Country Curator. The rest of the Countries are vacant. Who are ready to apply and manage the other #194 Countries. Even with my area there are few Steemians who post concerning Ghana, most of them are not regular, so I have strategize to get a wide range of good contets from West Africa and Africa as a whole. So if you check my first week digest post report you can see this modality.

In going forward, two things have come to my mind, any way possible we can go with it:

1. Increasing the delegation power of the Steem POD work can really help for the POD members to get reach out of many good contents which are coming from Steemians. In my case I would be able to filter most contents from many countries in Africa in addition to Ghana.

2. On the second thought we can also decide to curate some of these contents as and when the POD members report in their weekly posts. Of course our reports are shared through the comment session of @steemitblog. If there are more good contents to be curated within the week, the POD members can decide to report twice a week for frequent curation.

It sometimes discourage members when their work are reported in the 100 days of Steem and they are not recognised. Meanwhile because the POD members have mentioned that their posts has been curated by say "A" curator, they would anticipating an appreciable upvote for their effort.

I think when POD members are incentivized, when they have enough power to operate and reach out many Steemians in the World, it will even attract more members to apply for the position as POD member. I know the purpose redefinition of POD work is promote more Steemians work, and encourage them to work harder so that we can build Steem and make it stronger than before. Thanks to all contributors of today's Discussion which will help Steem to move forward.
