Still Not Sure What To Think About Steemit

A few days ago, I started noticing some awesome people I follow on facebook were starting to share posts from the Steemit platform.

When I see amazing people like Jordan Page, Eric July, and Jeff Berwick all starting to share posts from the same, new platform, it's hard not to notice.

I have to admit, that Jeff Berwick's post,  How I Made $15,000 in 12 Hours on the New Blockchain Based Social Media Site Steemit really caught my attention. I haven't watched his video yet, but it's on my list of things to do.

Since then, I've seen a couple other content producers I follow elsewhere on here as well.

So, I figured that reposting something here, that I recently posted on my website, would be a low effort way to give Steemit a try. 

I didn't have high expectations. I don't have much of a following to speak of, and I didn't send a message out to my email list; saying that I'm on Steemit.

I just reposted a recent blog post, and waited to see what would happen.

Well, as I waited, I was bitten by a cheetah. 

I'm not sure, but I think she might be might be one of the many children spawned by a drunken Chester Cheetah, after he stumbled his way into a sexbot factory. (Part cheetah. Part bot. It makes sense.)

I don't know why she bites. Maybe she's angry that Chester did too good of a job of being an absent father. Maybe he's in hiding; with Waldo. (Yeah, yeah, I now get that the bot checks for reposted content to keep the search engines happy, but you have to admit; the Chester Cheetah story is more fun. )

After biting back, I poked around the Steemit site a bit more, and discovered I had a wallet, with an estimated value of $6.29.  

I'm not sure where it came from, but it's more than the great, big, fat zero I would have expected.

I still don't know what to make of Steemit yet, but maybe it's worth taking a closer look.
