WeKu is incredible... what Steemit should be! I've done more there in 6 mos than all my time here. This week they hired me to write their announcements, guidelines etc. and after a while update their white paper. I'm hitting about $300 a post on average.

I was wondering about you- I figured you were in one of your typical absences. If I hadn't heard from you by May 1 I was going to shoot you an email. Another great thing about WeKu is no flag wars- no whales beating up little guys they disagree with. I can even quote scripture without fear of retaliation (or nasty idiotic comments). Everyone there is supportive.

Good to hear of your success!

I lost my weku password when I switched computers last year; maybe I'll create a new account

As little as I do the social thing, tho, it might just be reposting from here

There's been a lot of crossposting (I'm guilty too). Make sure you give it time between. They've been revising the rules... that's what I've been working on all day. WeKu is trying to stand apart from other similar platforms- to create a place for original content and a real sense of community.

By the way, I see that IW has pretty much been tiurned into a gaming platform.

I'd probably start with old stuff...probably update with some new stuff so it aint completely the same

last month I actually archived all my steemit stuff on my hard drive, so it's easier to repost and index

I'm not commenting on IW at the moment, building up to a post on it

I will say this tho, its hard as fuck to maintain a community; I myself failed at it ;>

I think TF has a different vision than you did.

Actually, I'd say the community as a whole had a different vision than I did. It was TF, OP, and canusapat that talked me into moving ahead with forming a community for the tag
but it was myself that decided to go with the consensus of focusing on countering the newsmedia, rather than the original idea I had for it's use

remember, my early posts were almost all history, theory, general strategies, and examples in line with what we were talking about

However, folks kept telling me...and they were correct in doing so...that I was too wordy and hard to understand ;>

So the community having different goals for the tag than I did isn't really a criticism. It's just reality, and a reality that I willingly went with.

And I think that despite my own illness and family issues, I would have burned out on managing the community anyhow. It takes a lot of energy out of me to be social LOL

As another wordy theorist I for one agree with your early vision. Believe me no one knows more about having their energy sapped.

From what I have seen, the IW community is more intent on countering FakeNews on a case-by-case basis, rather than understanding what is going on underneath the surface, or planning operations against the Ministry of Truth

And while this is a complaint of mine, it is just the way the world is

I tend to measure my activities against yours when I run out of juice: although I fall short of your consistency under stress, it does serve as an example for me to follow
