It is wonderful to see the update and, you are right, steemit is in beta stage. There are 400K (30K or so active) who are the test subjects. There is a lot of information being learned by the development team. I know @ned and others have huge plans for steemit. We are nowhere near the end of innovation but, rather, the beginning.

To me, we are already passed Reddit in terms of functionality since that is just a linking site. At some point, I believe the developers will put Facebook in the crosshairs. I hear some type of community feature is coming next...that will be amazing.

Thanks for all you do @zeartul.
