Actually, that's a fair sized comment for anyone. :)
I know there are a few husband and wife teams around, and I would think that they share the work in whatever way they can. They would probably have a diverse group of people they engage with, too, since men and women don't necessarily gravitate to the same people or discussions. That could make the account pretty well rounded.
I'm not sure which way to go would be best. If you're both starting out as redfish, it's still an uphill climb. Both would have to work Steemit, which might not be feasible, since there's still bills to pay. They could help build one another, and they could do a lot more than one person could in a 24 hour period—if they chose too—and reach more people and a more diverse circle.
Of course, working one account and having some of that diversity could have an advantage in that you're only trying to build one account. Maybe that one gets built up to a point and then begins to delegate to a new account the spouse opens later to try to help it grow faster. Either way could work. It's still going to depend on the time everyone has, and what their abilities are to network, post and curate.
There is a spellchecker—it's the red line that appears in the text box when a word is misspelled. It doesn't necessarily autocorrect, though, which it what you were hoping for. At least not in all browsers. I've noticed it happening in Safari, but it won't do it in FireFox.
Glad to hear your property no longer looks abandoned. No need to entice the squatters. :)
yes sir I think it would be very smart for a couple to work this together at least at first, I suppose you can both be on Steemit at the same time on two different computers? one could be going through the feed while the other comments and then they could switch.
yeah I have the spellchecker but I need a spell corrector! lol!
property..squatter! lol.. no, no one ever sees our property, it is totally private behind trees with a private drive entrance and people around here know that you don't go driving down someones private driveway!

Yes, but that doesn't mean one of those Californians invading your space would. They're pretty notorious for ignoring property lines and rights, for that matter. Next thing you know, they're setting up a commune! And then comes the loud music and the riotous living! And the next thing you know, you've got trouble. You've got terrible, terrible trouble. I said...
Whoops. Got a little carried away there, with sincere apologies to The Music Man. :)

haha! very good sir very good! we have pastures on both sides of us and if one of those owners sells then a development will probably go in and we'll probably go out. the way it is now surrounded by pastures is nice and quiet.
except for all the gunfire!

Meaning, hunters? Target practice? Civil War reenactments?
Okay, either you're pulling my leg, or you must get desensitized to all the shooting real quick. I'd be jumping every time a shot went off.

haha! no we knew it was a gun culture when we got here but were a little surprised at the volume. first of all we are about 2 miles from a big gun range so those are going off all the time but our neighbors will be shooting at various times of the day and even after midnight and we have neighbors in all directions that do that!
and those are LOUD, sometimes it's semi-auto fire and sometimes it's full auto firing! sometimes it's huge booming explosions of some kind, who knows what? lol.
so yes, many days the gunfire is nearly constant and for New Years and Christmas, oh my! it's unreal.
well, when we moved here the first things we noticed as far as businesses was that there was a donut shop on every corner and a gun shop on every other corner and almost as many big fireworks stores, not stands.
it's huge business down here. people like making large noises down here.
it's redneck heaven.

It must be pretty quiet where you are and pretty loud at the gun range to hear it all from two miles away. That must be the acoustics of the great plains of North Texas. :)
Okay, so when the neighbors are engaged in all this automatic and semi-automatic gunfire, are they actually shooting at anything, or what? I mean, it's obviously legal to just shoot, but I'm wondering if there's actual purpose to it other than making loud noises and wasting ammo.
I can see New Year's and Independence Day being loud, but what's up with Christmas? Everyone get that new weapon they wanted so they run out to test it after Christmas dinner?
You wouldn't be a part of any of these festivities, would you?
We had a bunch of fireworks going off around our house the night of Independence Day, and it was okay for the first two hours. Then, my wife had to go to bed to get up in the morning for work, and when I came in about a half an hour later, it was still going on, and they'd left the loudest for last.
I'm not sure how the granddaughter slept through it.
I'm sounding like i'm not a fan, but that's not entirely true. I like fireworks. I just don't need them going off when I'm trying to sleep.

well..most of it is target practice but we can tell if someone is hunting because they'll be in one of the pastures nearby. The loud explosions we don't know what they are but they've shook the house before.
sound travels out here like nothing I've ever seen before, but it is flat with few trees between us and the range.
Christmas fireworks and gunfire is actually more than the 4th in volume and loudness. for a couple of days before and the day of and a little a day after. we don't celebrate that way but I think we should start since it's such a Texas thing!

We've got the I-5 freeway which is probably a mile away as the crow flies, and we have a motorcycle dirt track that's probably about that, too, maybe a little farther, and we have railroad tracks about that. During the day, we don't hardly hear any of that, but at night, or towards dusk, we'll pick it all up.
Our area isn't entirely flat, but the highway is built up on a rise so the sound carries over the top of us, and basically it's the train horn we hear when it blows, and it's not a constant noise from the track, just when they're gunning the engines faster.
Not a whole lot of gunfire here, though. That's cause for alarm. Or a car backfiring. There's also some industrial plants down the way that when they get going will create some noise.
We actually live in a rural area, though. It's just a little busy. :)
