Introduction

I own the domain name MajorNews.com. I am interested in developing a web site (using open source) tied to Steemit and maybe other platforms with monetary rewards. I have 1000+ ideas about how this could work, but the #1 thing you must do when developing a new web site is find out what interests people the most. If I added all 1000+ ideas, it would be a bit overwhelming.

Looking for anyone who wants to be part of our team. Graphic artists, programmers, idea people, marketers, entrepreneurs, investors, journalists ... ??? ... Comment your interest and area(s) of expertise.

MajorNews Experiment #4:

Purpose: Try a few different things, see if anyone likes any of the ideas...
in other words... sling some mud on the wall and see what sticks.

Dreamers

The only thing holding the status quo in place is mass media propaganda. The ability of the ruling oligarchs to manipulate the way people think, act and vote is the only thing preventing the many from rising up against the oppression and exploitation of the few. We outnumber them so vastly that we could take true democracy and self-rule from the ruling elites without their permission and without firing a shot, simply by deciding collectively to change the way power and money works. The only reason we haven't done so already is because not enough of us want to, and the only reason not enough of us want to is because so many of us have been manipulated away from wanting to by plutocrat-owned media.

Random Notes:

There are several very good journalists using Steemit. We should spend at least one day a week featuring a new one.

It's a win-win. My thoughts on Steemit include what I think is a truth...
If you support the type of posts you enjoy, you are helping shape the Steemit ecosystem.
By supporting information you enjoy, more authors are inspired to write that kind of post.
End result, Steemit becomes a better platform for you and those who think like you.
