I Think Publishing is a Better Steem Message Than Blogging

in busy •  5 years ago 

Are the semantics really that important?
To me thus far Steemit is a repository.
I figure that some historian a few centuries from now might be interested in the experiences I’ve had. Certainly few people are presently.
Plus it’s a great way to keep from using up all my cloud storage.

Call it blogging. Call it writing. Call it publishing. What does it matter?
Anyone who has spent any time here knows what it is.
And knows what the priorities are.

Well publishing implies 1st time available anywhere in the world. Whereas ‘blogging’ implies repetition. The word ‘blogging’ itself such an odd word. It doesn’t make any sense. “Hi I’m a blogger. Can’t talk now I’m blogging’ ?? Ugh~!

Writing has power and can wield influence if it is backed up by community consensus. And the word ‘blogging’ doesn’t do any justification for the near-magical power of words. Steemit always has top-notch quality articles offering glimpses into art, photography, blockchain, current events. And the crossover with D-tube is brilliant They have videos news, current events, gardening, crypto and more and more. Both platforms allow anyone to express themselves in a professional way. The comments are always intelligent and without the ‘slag comments’ found in other less quality-focused platforms.

The semantics are important. Steem enables ALL p2p publishing such as VR, AR and Webapps. Check out https://GitHub.com/dluxio/dluxio/wiki to blow your mind.

^ lol... outsiders see blogging and think... eww blogging is lame.

Wouldn’t know about that. I can’t keep up with the ever changing trends and preferences of people. But I doubt that all outsiders, (outsiders. funny word that), would consider it lame.
Steemit is too many things to too many people to find a single word to encapsulate it’s entirety.

Agreed. In marketing semantics matter. When someone logs in not knowing what to expect and the site says... BLOG. That sets some expectations.
