This is freaking awesome dude!! I will definitely remember this video and link to it in one my ones because this is really in depth!
I totally agree with you on building relationships and that there is no other social network out there where you can make as good friends as on this one.
The truth is that I'm totally addicted now to this!
The only thing what you could have mentioned and explained is the difference between steem and steem dollars, but otherwise, just amazing! For newbies recommended :)
Winny out...for now ;)

this helped me a lot. I still dont quite understand what to do with steem dollars, vs steem withdrawls etc. Do i take my small steem payouts and reinvest it or put into savings. so confused with all of that. So far i just really enjoy posting and leaving good comments. Would love to understand what im supposed to do with the money that is being made...

I think that will be the topic of todays video, but basically you want to go to in your wallet next to steem dollars, click market. Then you will find steemit internal market. There on the left side you will be able to sell your SBDs for Steem. Just type in how many SBDs you want to sell and sell them, youll have to enter your master password for this though. Then back in your wallet, next to steem, you want to go to power up, again enter your password. I hope this hleped or wait for the video :)

unfortunately I am still a NOOB here, and what you typed sounds like Chinese to me. lol... I can't see to really understand what to do with Steem, Steem Dollars, or should I use my steem money to buy steam power, or use it to put into savings of steem etc. Im so confused as to how the allocation of all of these work... I would love someone to write out an easy flow diagram explaining to us NOOBS what to do. I post a couple a times a day, then comment a few, I recieve light nibbles of steem each week that I then can't figure out to I redistribute them into steem dollars? steam power? or put into savings. its so confusing. like what a strange and difficult model to understand. As a new user I would love to know what I need to do or how to allocate this.

Wow, this information is extremely useful. I'm new to the Steem platform.

Still much I have to learn on this platform but I could not have asked for a better introduction video.

Thank you so much for this :) Really - I've been fumbling around not really knowing what's going on at all... I joined maybe 6 months ago, wrote a bit of an aimless post about "i don't know what to talk about" and promptly left again to try to build a youtube channel. But I've got into binge buying cryptos like a lot of other people and, really, the capitalist pig in me is wondering how I can make money off this... BUT, I just listened to you talking about your 'own private magazine' and it reminded me how much i used to love that. I always wanted a magazine, but it was one of those things you couldn't really do unless you were into schmooozing and selling advertising space and all that, and I couldn't face that stuff, but about 15 years ago, i built a little hobby website about the fishing town i used to live in, and on that site, i started something called a 'web log' :) I still hadn't worked out the abbreviation to 'blog' - it was a while ago. I loved that blog. i loved the whole site - i could write and take photos and it was just freedom. It actually did well and became a small business, but i had to travel and leave it a bit behind, and started doing other stuff. Not good really. Over the last year, i got myself a camera again, but now the cameras can do video better than the pro ones could 15 years ago. So I've been making videos about trading (as i joined a trading site and they were relatively easy videos to make. Listening to you and your magazine comments though, maybe i can use this place for some of my more personal videos. For more creative stuff, or not even that, just more personal stuff. Thanks - that's a nice thought :)

arrggghhhhh. I just replied at length and hit the 'add comment' button by accident and it deleted my whole comment :) I'm a nooooooooooooooooob. Thanks for the video man - i used to have a blog, a long time ago, and taking photos and writing and making little pages a sections was a really freeing joy for me. I haven't done it in ages. I've been making videos on youtube for just under a year now, but nothing really very free and personal. After listening to your 'my own personal magize' comments I'm reminded of how i felt when i started my first website which was just a hobby one about the town i lived in in the South of England - a little fishing town where i lived for 9 years and eventually came to know as a really nice home. Anyhow, i left there and i've been out and about for a long time now and i miss the freedom of creating whatever you really want to create... Youtube's been good, but it's also been difficult and at times a bit soulless just making videos about one issue. Maybe I can post some other stuff here :) That's a nice thought, so thanks man. I have no idea which button to press to post this :D Here goes ...

Nice job explaining the platform. If I understand correctly a new user has 10 (non-weighted) votes a day max. In other words if I go several days without voting, the votes are not cumulative. For example upon returning from several absent days, I just have the 10 votes. Once I deplete the votes, it takes 24 hours to get back the voting power. It appears that as you build your rep by adding value that your votes have a greater influence, and you can weight the votes effectively giving you more total votes.
I think the idea is to keep things organic with the goal of good content gaining the most influence. As a new user I wonder about several aspects, but as you said it is new technology and it is evolving. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds.
-Thanks for the post!

Well, your voting bar recharges 20% each day and 20% is 10 votes... So if you havent been on for a week you can cast 10 votes at full weight that will be recharged the next day, or 50 votes that will be recharged in 5. But each vote gets successively weaker..
Once your rep goes up, your vote will have a greater affect on others rep, and you get a slider controlling vote weight at about 500 Steem Power.
