RE: The Business of Blogging and How To Take Over The World
Still a long way away indeed. Even with this new hardfork and the changes it brings with it, I'm not 100% confident things will work out. Whatever situation it puts me in though, I'm going to have either sink or swim. I don't know if these folks are going to be excited to come and visit the shops or if they'll be pissed off about having to actually lift a finger.
My hope is people will want to help get the ball rolling. There's so much potential here and I can't stand working with people who fear stepping up to the plate to hit home runs.
If it improves things then it's a step in the right direction. If not, back to the drawing board. I personally prefer swimming as at least there's a chance of survival.
A one off £100 payment to support your favourite content creators for life and the opportunity to earn that back is massive. Stop recurring payments on subscription models like Spotify and support your musicians directly... Of course we'll need more development on @dsound and it is happening with playlists on the way and this whole place is still on beta. I guess there can be similar arguments made for other content creators too.
I'm with you on that front. I'll look into writing a "general public" blog which explains the concepts we've mentioned here and just how people can get involved. None of this complicated technology jargon that noone can understand and runs for the hill. Plain English.

Yes indeed, plain English. Here's a quote of mine from How Much Have You Spent on Entertainment in Your Lifetime?
I read it and your "Curators, where are you?" post and wasn't overly surprised at the music curation side of things. One thing I may be looking to at least improve on with our @emalliance (Electronic Music Alliance) page is to get it more active and supporting music producers on steem.
You're right though, who's talking about the tech behind fb (OK apart from all the data mining) and the IT when it's all the entertaining parts of it whether they are cat montages or Ozzy Man Reviews, to films and everything else. It's the content people share links to that just so happens to be uploaded to a specific platform... But the economic models there don't reward consumers.
