I have a dream : evolving the internet into an intelligent global supermind which takes human culture to a whole new level.
My mission in life is to do everything I can to make the internet as amazing as possible. And by the help of this make life as amazing as possible. Steemit has the potential to help this happen.
I love the internet! The world wide web is a living global powerhouse of minds. Information and ideas and knowledge can evolve over time into something far wilder than science fiction. People from all over the world can learn exponentially together. Utopia can turn into reality. We have orders of magnitude more potential now than at any time in history.

The reason I joined Steemit is I see possible world changing potential in this community.
Steemit deals with an unresolved problem for creative people all over the world : being personally rewarded for openly sharing our best content. If this can be solved we can become a culture for evolving the internet to totally new levels and turn the intelligence of mankind into the winner. We may be on the path of something epic here depending on how we play it.
Let the adventure begin :)
