Hey Kim, welcome to steemit!
The feelings you had when you made your vlog in 2008 are similar to what people feel here now. We are a new community and we are trying to figure out what to post and how we'll be seen as we post. Jump in again, like you did on YouTube and I think you'll find friends and like minded people to talk to here too!
Thanks for the lovely and welcoming comment kenny-crane! I have been enjoying this community a lot, especially the more "civilized" nature of the comments and interactions than one may find on other social platforms.
