NEW FEATURE REQUEST: The Whale feed.

A special feed that only whales see, that high reputation minnows and dolphins recommend for review.

This isn't a complaint. It is something we've all seen. I'm looking for suggestions.

I love curating other people's posts. I enjoy reading quality content like some people do, and I love upvoting and contributing to the best ones.

When I write (what I think to be) a quality post. I love it when other people see value in my content and appreciate it enough to vote me up too.

Herein lies the problem..

Sometimes while I'm bouncing all over steemit, looking for quality, unique content posts to curate.. I find a few that really impress me.

Now that person who wrote it -- they deserve a golden star.

Awesome post! I love it. I upvoted it. Just wait until everyone else sees it!

...and then I revisit it a couple hours later, and they have the quality post undervalued syndrome. I've had that illness before, now I see someone else come down with the same illness.

It's true. "Getting paid" as so many people put it, really should be considered "a BONUS".

So we shouldn't think in terms of monetary value.

The conundrum is that if you don't attract a lot of monetary value, then you lose popularity of your post, and it scrolls off with very few people seeing it.

Quality important content, needs to go viral. Not for money reasons, but because it's a real quality post. It's a solid contribution to humanity, and it needs to be seen by as many people as possible, so it gets the attention that it deserves.

So this is less about me. It's more about other fellow bloggers in similar situations.

I want to help them. My upvote counted for 0.02 cents. I helped them a tiny pittance. I want to do more. It's a selfless act. But until I'm a whale, there's nothing else I can do.

People talk about vote clubs. Minnows (with +5 reputation) with little voting power, should be able to recommend a post be "reviewed for promotion" to a whale club.

Which means, whales could see the "reviewed for promotion" posts on a "whale feed" -- a special feature for whales.

Now of course, minnow bot owners, could "try" to promote their own feed -- but their minnow bots don't have reputation.

But we do need a whale feed, so whales (who are busy) can hop on the network, look at their own feed for

followers, and then look at "what's trending for possible promotion" on the whale feed.

Things don't show up on a whale feed, until 20 or more high reputation minnows or dolphins all vote it up

for review.

This solves two problems:

a) Real quality posts, that only minnows and dolphins found, that don't have enough steem power can show it to whales for review

b) This gets people a "second chance" at consideration by whales, instead of the whales having to find it themselves.

Perhaps the design of this new feature isn't perfected yet. HELP ME PERFECT IT WITH YOUR IDEAS.

Do I make any sense?
