RE: The Internet's greatest social experiment yet? Reddit Place
Awesome. That is fantastic! I love how creativity can be shown even through the eyes of the community.
This makes me wonder though, I have always loved Reddit for its community and the social experiments that they do. Do you remember 'the Button'? Can Steem ever reach this level of community?
Interactive projects like this are awesome. It is amazing that we can collaborate with people anytime all over the world. No I do not remember the button, enlighten me. I think that is one of the goals of the new marketing/updates, to develop communities. Although it will be hard to overtake reddit in that department.
The button was an interaction that Reddit released with only one rule. Do NOT push the button. The button was linked to a reset timer. Naturally everyone started pushing the button only to see the timer reset. So people got curious as to what happens when the timer ends. All sorts of factions started developing and where arranged by colours. Can't remember all the details, but basically some factions wanted to see the timer reach certain times, but the button was always pushed. Every time. Sometimes it took seconds, other times it took up to an hour, but it was always pushed.
Very interesting....So they never found out what would happen if it was not pushed?
No. But I don't think anything would happen.
guess we will never know ;)
