UPDATE [1.2] - Steemjet Report EXTRA: My Early Encounters with Steemjet

IMPORTANT [UPDATE 1.2] "We are words and Steem" - To better serve the community, I am creating a tag entitled "SteemJetNews". My rational is that this preliminary report is quite different than the periodic Space Force Reports. I came to the conclusion in discourse about why is there not a "SteemJet" tag listed here:

https://steemit.com/tags
And so I created the following post:
https://steemit.com/steemjet/@machnbirdsparo/steemjet-proposal-to-be-listed-as-an-official-tag
I initially included the "SteemJetReports" tag because I believe search-ability is critical to reporting and subsequent planning. However, in contemplating the future of the Space Force, I believe creating a "steemjetnews" tag would be prudent for efficiency and saving us time in general.

Therefore, only this preliminary report and the above linked Steemjet Proposal to be Listed as an Official Tag will carry the "steemjetreports" tag. This way, the community can be pointed to a place to post pertinent news that is not centered around individual account entries.

NOTE: If you wish to be listed in the directory found below a bit quicker, just reply to this post.

About [UPDATE 1.1] - Steemjet is a rapidly growing entity. There will be A LOT of updates. And so, I am implementing a number system. The first represents major updates directly from SF1 (see below); following the period are all other edits. Thus, this post has been edited twice . I will be including ">edited text<" (with relevant links) so that you can maximize your time and speed through my updates. However, it would be impractical and visually cumbersome to treat new members of the Space Force or the directory as ">edited text<".

LATEST EDITS: confirmation of SF 3,4,5,6,7 that was released here by @dimimp.

I first heard about Steemit through gaming channels.

“If only I had some extra time, I would check it out” - I thought.

What I did not realize at the time was that we jump into Steemit and the blockchain. In essence, they facilitate hobbies and project development. You see I had tried my hand at SEO and I saw the power (and exploitation) of online advertising. Steemit started coming up more and more as I acquired writing jobs about cryptocurrencies and blockchains. I finally took the plunge and was delighted, but I still lacked the online network I had sought throughout the years.

So What is Steemjet?

Then one day, during my dedicated Steeming time, I found Steemjet. My degree is in aviation and I have learned to land a plane, so obviously I clicked because of the Jet. The first thing I noticed was that there is a lot of chatter here- instant bookmark. As I read and explored through posts of artwork, a feeling of enthusiasm, creativity, and hope steemed from the community. But, what was Steemjet, exactly?

Originally posted here, >@dimimp describes Steemjet and its Space Force:

The Steemjet Space Force is a team of independent thinkers who use their brains to win the game of global adoption. .... Steemjet is a business that just created over 30 new jobs.

Imagine what kind of future we can create. <

Wow!

Now, I have some experience and education in business, so I know about conventions and creative meetings. Steemjet has aspects of both, so I understood the value that already existed. But, was Steemjet a book, a meetup, a community off the Steemit blockchain, or was it a runaway brainstorming idea. I love operating by brainstorming with others. Maybe its the NewYorker in me. Maybe it's the intellect or gamer.

One really needs to experience the passion in the Steemjet community to understand how it inspires action. Growth is undeniable and the need for organization through a management team who are also contributors is clear.

A True Community

Here at Steemjet you have always been free to think off the top of your head so that others can offer a quick, insightful reply. Time invested projects are always looked into by curators. Now, with Space Force, every member of the Steemjet community is assured of being heard and their dedication acknowledged. Management and curators are easier to reach through Steemjet Space Force curation and reports.

My Contributions to the Space Force

Summary Reports/Community Centered Posts: Unless I am directed by the Steemjet community, I will look to post a summary report each week or so. Each will be numbered. They will serve to organize my thoughts and allow for your input- and as a smaller space for development.

Extras Reports/Posts: These will be posted depending on community activity, my schedule, and any events that may arise. This SJR_1x by @MachnBirdSparo is a report of preliminary information. I have classified it as an Extra. My first official report will be posted after being officially included into the Space Force. Currently I am slotted as an >SF6<.

About Community Analytics

Below is a how I am thinking of approaching my curation and contribution. Consider this a preliminary report. For a history of community members, I will be working backwards from today. The other Steemjet posts, peports by the Space Force, and community activity will serve as the baseline for curation and acknowledgement. Not everyone will be listed here today. But, I will continue to include new names for my contacts until such time that I have not left out a regular replier.

Preliminary Information

The alphabetical order just makes it easier for me to coordinate this report with future ones. Here is some preliminary information beginning with information from the announcement of the Space Force One teams. My current object, until I get some feedback, is to find some broad, uniform specifics about how the community views Steemjet and its direction. From there things hope to become less analytical and more heartfelt, with personalized acknowledgement going to familiar Steemians along the way. I will also seek to surmise the tone of the contributions of each person on the lists below.
