I have joined at least 3 "Facebook-killers" (my term, not theirs) in the last few years. Not one of them has managed to compete.
But past performance does not guarantee future success (or failure) and I would very much like to be part of a better online nexus for agorist relationships.
So tonight I started an account.
I'm open to meeting other ESteemed persons who might provide insights about this venue and environment. People who have posted to Facebook about Steemit have been maddeningly silent about what it is or why it matters, but copious in requests to upvote their posts.
If this turns out to be something I stay with for long, I will try to be more helpful to others who might find it desirable.
And so I launch out into the steemy deeps and see what creatures I encounter here....
