RE: Steem account creation fee has been lowered. Invite your friends now!
That place will not be steemit.com according to the plans steemit inc. announced so far.
It's not necessary to use any of those services you listed though...
That's fine, it doesn't have to be steemit, it just has to be one place. yes you must have a steemconnect account to use this steem invite application
You do not need a seperate account at steemconnect. It's used to log you into your steem account, and it's just for security so you don't have to give your key out to every platform you use.
I think we're having a bit of a misunderstanding here. Whenever someone has to leave a site or click through to something else and re-login somewhere else before performing the desired action, it cuts down on the nuber of people who will actually follow through. Its the same with vendors and marketers, the more sites that pop up and the more clicks users have to perform, the less likely they are to finish
The devs of Steem try to push Steemit as a blogging platform first.
Hence the block-chain analysis tools aren't the biggest priority.
A login is a login, no matter if you're redirected to another place to perform it or if it's on site. Facebook/G+/GitHub logins don't exist because they aren't used.
It's up to the app creator which ways to log in they provide, but users should basically always prefer steemconnect for security reasons. Be sceptical if someone wants your keys.
