Hello Everyone! Life continues to move forward, on and off of the STEEM blockchain, and it is glorious! I managed to put out two videos this week, plus a post about guest accounts. One thing is clear - people are building things on STEEM! When STEEM is very cheap, it becomes relatively inexpensive to build on STEEM!

For example, I am working on launching a simple token. My friend asked me, how much does that cost? I said - 100 steem, or about $15.75 - and we both laughed. The barriers to entry have never been lower. What are you building or what are you supporting that is being built?

This is a contest about supporting those things that are being built on STEEM!

Open Launch Post

---

This weeks theme is 'ONBOARDING THE MASSES'

---

Participants please respond in a comment or post detailing ONE organization, company, application, community and/or project built on STEEM, locking up STEEM POWER, that you believe best meets the theme of this weeks contest.

Important Rule: Please do not repeat your own recommendation from the previous week

Please include:
WHO - Who is the team behind the project?
WHAT - What are they doing?
WHERE - Geographical location if appropriate, but also digital location - please provide relevant links to where more information is located.
WHY - Why are you nominating this project? See also: 'So what?'
HOW - By what methods is all this being done?

This contest is currently open for all participants to win weekly prizes of SBI.

RESULTS FROM WEEK 2

We had less participation this week, but there were participants, all of whom I count as winners this week. I consider this to be one of the easiest and best ways to earn SBI for yourselves and your communities/projects, so I hope you will share this with your friends and come back each week to support and win more.

I am still working with some participants, notably @chireerocks, to understand how to participate. With prompting, he did have some groups to support!

This week's winners:

User	Project	Rank
@phoenixwren	@schoolforsdg4	3
@yonnathang	@yeceniacarolina	3
@davedickeyyall	@spinvest	2
@snook	@freewritehouse	2
@chireerocks	@reggaesteem	1+
@chireerocks	@surpassinggoogle	1+

I have hardened the future of this contest now in my mind, we will continue this 'open contest' part while the list of projects being built on STEEM, and the prize pool, grow. Rank 3 answers will win the most support for themselves and their projects, while selected Rank 1 answers will only win small support for the projects themselves. All prizes are distributed at my sole discretion.

Later, we will begin the competition for the grand prize!

Remember: I like complete sentences and complete thoughts and links and discussion and passion! Let me know what you are building or what your friends are building or what you think is really cool that is being built.

Come and win support for yourself and others!
