Wow, that is awesome. I never really liked Facebook. The only time I got a lot of followers on there was when I was addicted to MafiaWars and adding 50 "friends" a day (people I didn't not even remotely know) to put them in my army. I reached over 6,000 "friends" but none were real and MW took a ton of my time for no good reason. The rest of seems like people oversharing, telling me what they're buying at the grocery store, showing pictures of them and their beautiful friends laughing at a bar somewhere, posting sappy sayings and pictures of soft-focus roses on Facebook or telling a bunch of strangers about {Choose family member's} {Choose dangerous upcoming surgery} and asking for prayers.

Steemit is definitely a huge cut above and it's already bringing out all of my latest creative interests that I had buried and put off for years. I am looking forward to learning to film things and edit, as well as to pick up charcoal and paper again to start drawing. And of course, to write write write.

We really are lucky to be in this early. I am about to buy my first Steem this Friday when my BTC clears. Going to convert it all to Steem Power. BTC is down this week and Steem is down more. Hoping this is a short term trend. In any case I want to invest in Steemit with Steem Power. I haven't yet bought cryptos seriously yet. That will come with more experience and education.
