I've put multiple posts on FB inviting all my friends and family to come check out steemit.com.

(My son has been waiting for almost a month now and still no password email. I had to wait just over 3 weeks for mine too but my hubby got his within 24 hours of submitting his email.)

I also mention it to pretty much everyone I know when I see them and ask them if they've had a chance to check it out or at least gotten a password email back so they can check things out.

I think once they've gotten control of whole getting your password email, so it only takes 24/48 hours to get your password, there will be another big influx of people...but this waiting 3 weeks or longer is frustrating.

I've actually got a few that are waiting for their password email still and others that have heard how long its taking that say its too long to wait.

If steemit want to beat FB they really need to cut down the wait time so people can get in here and see how wonderful it is. :D

At least on steemit they have the NSFW tag so we don't have to see that stuff if we don't want to, unless someone forgets to add it and we click the post thinking its a discussion of the persons outfit but instead we get a full frontal of someone like Rihanna...don't get me wrong, she's pretty but I don't need nor want to ever see her naked.
