Okay, I signed up. It really would be silly not to. So I'm following you and a few others who seem to be on the same voting track as me - and even though my votes don't count for squat now, I'm doing my best to build up my rep and earn vests - so I signed up to be a curator too. AND I'm in the process of verifying and linking my outside blog. Supposedly it's supposed to cross link what I write there and put it here. HOW COOL IS THAT?!
I don't know how formatting is going to be affected because it's HTML there and markdown here, so we will see how often I use it - especially since I've been blogging exclusively on Steemit for 2 months now.

Awesome stuff merej99 :)
I haven't tried the blog cross posting features out at all, or seen other people using them yet so I'd be careful with those - in theory it sounds great I just don't know how it handles the formatting at all.
Very cool idea , but I dont really want to see a heap of people just reproducing blog content from elsewhere just because its an option :P
Thanks for the vote follow I'll try and make good choices :)
Agreed about reproduction of posts...but curiosity got the best of me.
I wanted to see if it works (still waiting for site verification)
I did a junk post with some goofy text and added a picture to test cross-promotion formatting.
Once I have that info, I can determine whether to keep or toss it. The only good thing that I can see from keeping it is my email list. There a a whole bunch of people who get notifications when I post on my blog...none of them are on Steemit. Something to think about for audience growth.
Cool, let us know how it works out :)
