STEEM Plugin for Chrome
________________________________________
Funded by STEEM witness “Kushed”
Description:
In anticipation of STEEM becoming a popular and widely used crypto currency, but most importantly, a standard platform among content creators and participating audience within Steemit and outside off, a new standard would need to be created in order to support 3rd party implementations while minimizing complexity of the system for the end user. By creating a chrome plugin, In process we aim to create a new standard for online content publishers and readers that would simplify and make interaction with Steem blockchain more seamless and elegant for all parties.
Benefits:
- No Authentication: Never again will a user have to authenticate, login, or create an account per site in order to create content,
reply or simply vote. There are millions of online users on daily
bases that avoid interacting with a website just because they have
to go through new account creation process or to even simply logon
and that's if they don't have to go through password recovery
process. - Long keys: No more having to copy and paste 16+ character keys from
another source, let alone having to “remember” and type a long brain
key. - Security: Does not store the keys on 3rd party servers.
Posting/Voting Keys are stored stored locally (preferably encrypted
or password protected) - Cross platform support: Chrome is a widely used browser and
supported on all platforms, including mobile. Mobile users are
important as most people are using their cellphones for social
networking than desktop computers.
Project Scope:
- Chrome plugin that would securely store, posting/voting key.
- Plug would need to have a indicator to notify the user if the website
supports Steem platform. - Plugin needs to be able to identify Steem supported comment and vote
fields when proper html - tags are used. Preferably highlight those fields when hovered over.
- A new standard of html tags for steem supported field/functions.
Cross platform compatibility.
