I wrote this article about the first Creative Commons Academy Award Nominated film (phew, that's a mouthful.) That didn't get any traction at all. So I sent it to 
god help me steemit.
He upvoted it.
He's the only person to upvote it.
Why, oh why didn't I wait like 6 hours to do that. He would have gotten his SP and that vote would have sent my post to the top of the charts.
I'm filled with steemit regret.
