I thought it was a bit nerdy that I used my name when I signed up for Steem, but now I realise it was the best decision.
Great vision video on your new account.

Yes! I pleaded at length for this. Steem the blockchain only has value as a tool for bringing people together, creating communities. And to create communities, as Jordan B. Peterson says, you need personal responsibility. The first step to assuming personal responsibility is to act under your own name, not anonymously.
Doesn't stop you being a nerd ;P
it's geek, not nerd .... :p
interesting topic (and @justineh) i'd give it a try but i'm bad at trying and i think i might have emptied my head on everything from anarchy to capitalism, steem , bitcoin, the subversivity of fantasy novels and the new wave in european politics so maybe i need to recharge a bit ...
I think steem(it) as a company might not do bad simply cold calling oldskool to onboard brandnames but before that there seems to be thinktanks growing here who might help out finding lists of reasons to help convince them.
I'm not sure if you're not over-estimating the willingness of the whole populace to put that best foot forward but i dont think you need the whole populace ... you DO need bulk on social media though. Every little cog has its use, if and when it's used i suppose.
If you get a small number of devoted people who are really into it to put their heads together and a small number of entrepreneurs who can be convinced to build exclusive products on steemchain and if steemit succeeds in getting a steady stream of revenue (from ads maybe) that's not based on selling steem epic greatness is definitely possible imo ...
5:10 am ... cat just came home and clearly feels i have spent enough time with the keyboard, i think he thinks im cheating on him with the thing ...
take care, wherever it is ! ! see you around, very likely, id like my favourite platform to go places too, doesn't need to sit on the throne, just somewhere comfortable ... :))

Only a nerd would concern themselves with the difference. :P
This is what is happening now and slowly, it is attracting more similar. The community driven be feeless transactions makes for a nice development space to build upon cheaply and leverage. The niche is coming.
true dat , it's probably best not to rush things anyway or you'll get a lashback , correction, or whatever it's called under the circumstances, and its pretty de-motivating if you see your barchart spike overnight, only to see it dump twice as deep before you can get a move in because "killroywhale was first" ... you know what i'm saying, right, 76 rep ... you have probably been around the block lol.
It's great to see people taking it into their own hands, after all : steemit is one company but the chain is the chain, and it doesn't really belong to anyone in particular (if it were apple or microcrud they would have probbaly patented the system ... but apparently they didn't ...)
But i think it has much to do with the fact that STEEM sat so high after the initial period. People could just lay back and rake in the money while sleeping basically, especially the top 50 elite.
So there wasn't really any real incentive to start "working" on it as it all came for free, but now, and after such a long time its clear that sitting around and waiting in the middle of the jungle just ain't gonna cut it.
and that's probably the most important part now, people getting organized and taking matters into their own hands, no matter if the immediate results arent very visible, that's actually what "organic" in community means, right ?
natural evolution, i think epic greatness is possible, but i also know the competition is fierce and tribalism on Crypton doesn't always help in order to tackle common problems first . . .
We will see, right :p
@tarazkp
It is going to be interesting if this all turns into the new model of business where the infrastructure is open source and leverageable.

Yep, the organic structure keeps changing, even if we don't notice it. Some people want to be able to sense the speed of change but it is very difficult from inside the moving vehicle.
yeee, i think do
Sir can you please help me understand how this platform works? Am new here
