Aggroed's post "I'm New Here. Can you explain Steemit to me like I am 5" is wonderful. I would like to see more in that style. I still struggle with some basics like : How much Steem Power do I need for my votes to matter ? Wait, Why is there both SBD and Steem, again? (I swear I understand it and then i realize I dont!).

Steem Power: More guides about this should break down how much Stem power you need to increase your voting power. That was super mysterious until I asked in a chat. For example it was explained that to be able to have .02 cents of voting power i need $200 SP. That would help newbies decide better when to power up, I think? I have read a bunch of posts about how/why to power up but a lot of them were a year old. Also in a practical sense: When you go into Bitrex to power up its not intuitive information for first time users. The Market is totally confusing to me, i still dont get it. The guides I have found skip over some steps (they just take for granted that many of the terms are more familiar to the reader).

Visuals:
One way to really help the super new minnows would be guides with lots of screen shots and visuals that have arrows pointing at exact spots referenced in the text. Or videos, Kahn Academy style?

Cirriculum/study guide/ daily readings
It would be REALLY cool if new users to Steemit were given optional access to a series of guides like a cirriculum in a certain order, like :Day One: read these and watch this video. Day two: Do this. Day three: Do that. There is definitely this sensation of learning Steemit like peeling off layers of an onion. Instead of relying on good search term skills, it would be awesome to get sent on a particular path for the first couple weeks. You could even have people earn a badge or something when they complete all of it, or something fun like that.

That being said, the maze-like quality is actually also part of the appeal for me. There is so much discovery and learning here. So, i hope it never gets TOO easy. :)

Would be happy to give further feedback if any of this sounds interesting or if you need clarification! Thanks!
