Really interesting. As someone who had published in good old paper formats, blogging was a tough nut to crack: it seemed wrong for serious stuff I'd want to see between covers, and I could rarely muster the commitment to stick at my various WordPress experiments.
The people who seemed to make blogging work were those who stuck to a well-defined - and maybe time-constrained - subject or theme: an event in their life, a journey, a craft or hobby.
I'm new to Steemit, but there seems to be scope to publish/broadcast on an occasional basis to a community who'll recognise you (like your Facebook friends) but who won't necessarily expect hourly updates (thanks God for that!)
Be interesting to see how we all evolve here...
