I just joined steem. For a long time I have thought that social media should economically reward those people creating and interacting with 'content' - beyond cultural capital of being a youtube star or whatnot. This is one of the reasons we created https://paom.com.
BUT here is STEEM - a fully fledged social network that does just that. FANTASTIC. I went and clicked on trending and saw art was #2, and said - ok I like this place. So I just downloaded the white paper because - wtf is going on here. I am so curious to see what I can do with steem- very excited!
