RE: Minds & Yours: Will They Be The First Steemit Competitors?
I have heard of a few others too but have never checked them out. I think bitcoinlive is one of the others that I have heard about and can actually remember the name. I don't have the energy to post on 2 seperate accounts lol. Steemit already takes up to much of my time! ;)
Same here. But I have consiered reposting old Steemit osts on those - saves time on the writing part ;0)
good call.. maybe i should consider that as well ;)
I've been meaning to ask you, why simplymike?
Long story, lol.
When I was still in internet marketing, I didn’t want to be caught by the IRS, so I changed my first name to Mike. That name is so common here in Belgium, it could be like a thousand people.
Then I started on Steemit with the username mike314-0005. I don’t know what I was thinking at the time, lol.
I reached rep score 51, but I was so tired of mistyping my own username I decided to open a new account. Choosing a new username was not easy, so in the end i just went for simplymike. It was way easier to remember, and less chance that people would mistype it - two factors of which I believe are important if you want to get somewhere on a social media platform.
Maybe I should have chosen a girl’s name, but I think it’s pretty funny that everyone is taking me for a guy (who can blame them?)
I don’t really care about sexes, so it doesn’t bother me.
Huh, crazy story! I did not expect that at all lol.. thanks for sharing it with me.. :)
