So true @shortsegments, Steemit and by virtue of there relationship, Steem, already have a diverse and growing ecosystem. It is one of the reasons I was drawn to this platform. I too like to see the the new applications popping up. Even in the down market, the Steem use cases are expanding.

I would like to add that there are a few areas that I believe Steemit must address or may begin losing market share. Primarily down-vote abuse.
