RE: Thinking Out The Box: Curation Rewards
I completely agree. For an investor there are ways to maximise their return which do not involve interaction with steemit themselves. Steem is a currency. There can be other ways which should be looked at. There are a few curators out there who do incredibly well. But it is not the norm and involves a lot of work I think
Looking at a more traditional form of curation, a pre-likes/RTs/Digg/Reddit/Web2.0 form of curation, it is a full-time job.
Most high profile creators like Jason Kottke, John Gruber, the Boing Boing crew, Drudge Report started with curation on the side until popular.
Many of those still run multiple projects, or jobs as such, actually despite publicly known revenue for their sites being generally awesome.
Given that on Steem it is more difficult even, although more and more have their own submission process but that also comes with lots of noise, it surely is a lot of work.
I am a curator in that older spirit/sense btw. Apologies for the shameless plug.
I don't mind a shameless plug, it's obvious from reading your comments that you are not a link drop and away kind of person :0)
