And you're not alone ausbitbank. So happy to see you guys working on this, it's been addressed by several others I know of but for various reasons a robust and adoptable solution is yet to appear the masses can use.

DNS has been one of my strong interests ever since I became aware of blockchain tech. Remember meowbit? Kyehotee? Meowbit was not a bad idea. It was a chrome / firefox extension (I don't recall which one now) based on namecoin. A blockchain solution to this problem is definitely the way to go IMO, tho the namecoin project hasn't been successful in coming up with a solution a community consensus has rallied around.

It's been several years since I was into this, and I need to refresh my internal knowledge base, as I don't quick grock how t use what someguy123 for other domains unrelated to steem. I get this article only describes the first step, just foggy on how it can grow beyond. But that's my issue, you guys carry on and I'll stay tuned and catch up as I can.

Thanks again for your efforts, all of you. Many have recognized the need for a better DNS, and I was surprised not to see a noticeable increase in such efforts when control of ICANN went to the UN.

EDIT: Just now noticed this is a very old thread. Not sure why it popped up on my radar. I don't use steemit very much these days, so I wouldn't have thought something so old would get my attention. But that's what happens when you don't pay attention and follow links from elsewhere! Doh!
