Funnily enough I've been telling a friend about Steemit recently, and last night he said he was going to take a look at it. I immediately warned him: "If you see a very mediocre post on the Trending page that's earned $900, don't think 'I could do better than that!' They've probably gamed the system. You'll be lucky if your first posts make as much as $0.50."
I see Steemit as a long-term project - we're early adopters and the chances are that at some point in the future our Steem will be MUCH more valuable than it is today. So I'm working on my nest-egg. On the other hand, it could disappear overnight. But I'm having fun, so who cares?
That yogurt! My mum loves it, and it looks delicious. But I have a cow's milk intolerance, so I have to avoid it. I can eat goat's milk yogurt.
Re-bidbots... your comments have inspired me to write a post on the subject, so watch this space!
Oh, and re-drone cameras – I would LOVE to see this footage! One of the things that got me interested in scrambling was watching YouTubes of people doing it, but they are almost always filmed using GoPros, which tends to distort the footage and give it that "fish-eye" look. It makes routes like Striding Edge and Jack's Rake look much narrower and more terrifying than they actually are - and very wobbly. I have often thought of buying a drone (if I could afford it) so that I could film our scrambles in a more realistic way, without distortion. I find a lot of drone footage quite dull - drones are often used to film beautiful locations in a kind of grand sweeping movie credits style, which can be very pretty, but boring (in my opinion).
