Hey Steemit Folks!
I must say, I found it quite liberating when I noticed the section to introduce yourself. In fact, if I hadn't noticed it, I would normally poke around, reading and commenting for a while instead of creating my own content to share with everyone. A real big thank you to the community for creating this section!
To me, Steemit sounds like an amazing place to tell your story from your own perspective, and get rewarded by the community - not by a business. I love that it reminds me (in quite a nostalgic way) of the way forums used to be back in the late 90s, early 2000's. I used to be part of a few online forums in which you would get rewarded with points and stats based on your contributions. In the same way, I used to be able to spend those points for cool things like Avatar upgrades, or awesome signatures that only the cool kids had :)
So here it is, a big THANK YOU for existing, and being here - I look forward to being a part of this as much as everyone else. I plan to write about various topics, but am mostly versed in IT, Computer Networks, and technology in a business setting.
And for fun, here's a photo of a lantern festival I recently went to - we deployed over 12,000 lanterns!
