Thanks a lot @bigtom13! Yes, I know about the '3 STEEM' option, but newbies don't have the 3 STEEM yet, so for them it's a problem. I can make them accounts of course, but they often don't know who to ask for it :-) So the different 'apps' now offering free/quick Steem accounts is a real life changer - but that too must be communicated well enough for them to know where to sign up.

I'm curious what you'll learn from the Austin conference! Good you're going!
