Hi Steemit

Hello

Stony here and I'm looking to start posting here. I like the whole idea of this decentralized platform. I rarely use Facebook now. I've been online for almost my entire life: from Myspace generation to trying Peepeth (a decentralized social network like Twitter) I can send you an invitation if you want to join and if it’s still required now. Not really fond of paying for every message you post, but you can trade $ freely.

Does anyone remember Microsoft netmeeting? I've always had a fascination for social media. I remember video chatting from a very young age with people around the world. Some, I'm still in contact with. It's these new connections that we make that allow us to view and look at things with a different lens.

interests:

Crypocurrency I currently own tiny baby bags just a few alts. I wish I had some more. I think it could be the future of wonderful things.

Cannabis Used as a creativity enhancement tool and for medicinal benefits and properties really interest me. Something once consider so taboo is becoming more widely accepted. What are some other things, often considered taboo or wrong, that will be more acceptable in the future and benefit everyone?

Humankind- The way we interact with each other and how we grow as beings.

Fun Facts- Did you know that the poop of birds is white because birds don’t pee?

Biohacking- I’m no expert, but the idea of risk with the hope of making a significant development for humankind is worth exploring.

Social Media- Twitter sparked the Tunisian Revolution. The maginitude of social influence today is at unprecedented levels in the online community.

Technology Is our independence being threatened by technology? Facial recognition software is being embedded in new applications that will recognize your entire online footput in no time. Do we give up freedom of anonymity and other rights with every technological advance?

Ego Surfing A term coined in 1993 to describe the process of searching online for any kind of information about yourself (eg. googling yourself)

Tv Show Black Mirror I’ve only seen a few episodes and it’s parralls to our actual technology and humankind make it enticing and thrilling.

Nothing is more annoying than filming a live full concert or performance to just post it on social media However this is cool!

Know any fun facts?
