If I want to get started do I have to buy Steem or something?
No, you can just sign up and start contributing and curating by upvoting.

HOW!!!!! WHERE!!!!! Link please...

I went here:
https://signup.steemit.com

tried.... a username and then entered my email.

I gave a number to a cell...

and did not hear anything.... So I checked my email with nothing to see.

So I'm lost and can't recommend this as I can't get anyone signed up.

Please no that i want an answer for real...

Thanks
