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 ... ??? ... Comment your interest and area(s) of expertise.

MajorNews Experiment #2:

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.

• Today's jabi:
• Start with a topic (Hardfork 20)
• If people create posts about the topic, let them add their link and synopsis of their post.
• Then, people interested in the topic could:
  • vote up the post
    • both as curation for Steemit and a one person/one vote system, to make the post show higher on MajorNews.com.
      Kind of like SteemHunt does, but with no 24 hour cutoff.

This does 2 things:

• Focuses on current news
  • Allows us to build a crowdsourced directory of information about things in the news.
    • Maybe instead of going to Google to research, people would come to MajorNews.com...???...

  • I asked a question and got some good answers. I will leave the post up if people want to read and follow along. But the 3 answers to the questions that came in (from people more in tune than me) seem to think that this will apply to 1 SP size accounts and below. So its a good thing and not a bad thing. Their answers are at the top if you would like to read their replies.

    No changes which will make the platform vibrant, no really new stuff.
