We're excited to, at last, launch Musing.io to everyone in the Steem community today. Musing is a question and answer platform, built on Steem's blockchain, that rewards you with tokens for answering peoples' questions! Imagine Quora, but with the crucial distinction of being able to properly incentivize content contributors.
Any user who would join has the power to ask questions and provide answers. Any upvotes you receive on your answers are rewarded in the form of Steem's cryptocurrency. By providing accurate and thoughtful answers, you'll be sure to earn some money (we take a 0% cut).
Motivation
Since the dawn of the internet, it's been our great advantage to be able to ask a question and have the answer provided to us instantaneously. This ability underlies a core faculty of the web, and because there will always be more things to know in the world, it will help to have a platform that can provide better answers and do so in a way that runs more efficiently.
Sites like Quora, StackOverflow and Yahoo! Answers are all incredibly useful, but they don't reward the people that create their content. This affects the following features:
Answer Quality - Without proper incentives, it doesn't benefit people to put that extra 20% into writing something truly great.
Response Time - People won't feel the need to respond quickly or at all if there's no reason to.
Truth - You'll be reading an answer and find that at the bottom, it's connected to some self-promotion or advertisement for their company, website, etc... which makes you second-guess their truthfulness.
Implementation
We built Musing with decentralization as a central pillar to our technology stack. Great effort went into ensuring that all posts, comments, likes, etc... are recorded and used on Steem's blockchain, which makes the entire application almost entirely decentralized. The interactions should involve just your browser and the blockchain.
We plan to open-source the platform once there is clear developer interest. Open-source is the future of blockchain tech and is critical to true decentralization.
What's Next
Don't forget to check out our platform - Musing.io
We will be adding new features, like IPFS image support, and a Smart Media Token (when they launch). These features will enable us to empower users both individually and as a community.
Additionally, we'll be writing more posts on Steemit about technical matters and how we built Musing, as well as updates on the progress of our platform.
It's our mission to expand the reach of human knowledge and to create a collective intelligence that runs faster and more efficiently than any before it.
We're looking for developers and designers! If you're interested in working together, send an email to [email protected]
Hiya @musing - just a question, how safe is the system given we need to add our active keys here? Why is not doable with posting key only? Please elaborate if possible! Many people got scammed recently by giving out their active keys to certain DApps - also interested in the opinion of @jesta here! Thanks in advance!

Seems like they use SteemConnect.com to authenticate their users. I've recently created a discussion board integrated with steem and do also use SteemConnect. So basically you don't need to give away your keys and you can revoke access to certain apps. Still SteemConnect is a foreign provider with access to your keys, but as they are operated by Steemit and Busy, they have good reputation.

Thanks for your insight. It seems like people don't quite want to flood their blogs with q&a content, understandably. For answers, it's possible to keep them as replies or comments. However, for the questions, it's a bit more difficult. While it's definitely feasible with a centralized database, I'm not entirely sure there's an option for doing this on Steem without creating a blog post. Otherwise, how would people reply to your question?
It is something we'll have to think about. Thank you for bringing it up. To centralize or decentralize...

How about creating a parent post where questions will be posted as comments inside rather than individual blog posts that clutter follower feeds? The same rewarding mechanics are used with parent posts and comments.
Tested your app with mobile, looks nice and has a similar feeling to Quora, which of course is only a good thing! Keep up the good work.

I'm glad this is something you guys are trying to solve, because this is a huge barrier for most people. I would personally not ask a question on musing with my main account, just because it would be weird for my followers to see a random question in their feed, when they normally see my blog posts. I hope you are able to find a good solution to this, and in the meantime I will stick to using an alt account ;)

Thanks for your insight. I'm amazed at how helpful our community is.
We are thinking of creating a daily thread where people can ask questions as replies to this daily thread and answer to those questions as sub-threads like in a normal Steemit post/thread if that makes sense. This way, neither questions or answers could flood peoples' blogs. The daily post would capture all the questions along with their answers in one neat thread, preventing anyone from cluttering their blogs.

This was an issue with @whatapp already too, and also with Zappl and Steepshot. Many have started using alt accounts exactly for that reason.
I fully agree with everyone saying that answers should be posted as comments btw. I normally only use my alt account to post on micro-post platforms. To avoid noise on the usual feed, even if that means some may not see my question/zapp/steemhunt/...

Here is how I'd solve that problem. You could create an account like @musing-questions on which all the questions are posted (with the data required to link them to the user who asked them). Then, the answers would be posted as comments on the corresponding post. Then you could keep reference of these questions permlinks along with their subject in a database.

You're definitely right about the answers to questions thing. It's something that a lot of people complained about and required a large amount of code changes but is now ready to go live. Our solution was to have a daily thread to hold all questions and answers. People will be free to ask and answer as much as they like without spamming their blogs.
As for the UX, yeah I agree it's not as readable as it needs to be. We did something similar to Quora, which I found to be decent in terms of a user experience. We'll continue to work on it of course. I will say though that there will be a tab for just questions for people to answer very soon.
For resteemed answers, the thinking is that there will be some posts that would have enough depth and insight for someone to want to share with their followers.
Any other advice you might have would of course be appreciated!

No worries. Just a quick bit of feedback, I didn't realise it would post my answers as blog posts that show up on Steemit. If I were to go answering a few questions and become active, I fear that it would spam my feed and cause a few of my followers to be unhappy with the noise.
Is there an option where I can prevent my answers showing up on Steemit and clogging up the feed? I can see this being a concern for others as well. Other than that, fantastic work. Did you work off of the Busy.org codebase or build something from the ground up?

Thanks, this is helpful. A lot of thought actually went into the decision to create answers as blog posts. The reasoning was so that peoples' answers could get more exposure on the category pages, but naturally, it does make sense that they should exist as comments.
Also, we didn't foresee that people might not want to have their blogs flooded with posts. We'll look into the option that you suggested and will handle this. It'd be nice to see what other people think too.

I’ve always thought that Steem was the perfect location, system to host a solid QA platform. This is a gorgeous first release.
Keep up the good work, I truly believe that somebody will nail this niche rather soon. Ship often, ship fast. Keep improving the platform. There’s lots of awesome feedback in the comments already.
As additional suggestion I would bring it up that it’s worth considering capping the rewards on the question itself. This to keep things interesting and stimulate conversation in the replies.
I know this won’t be a popular view but does a question really deserve more than say STU 5? 2? While most people who answer are left with probably less than STU 1 for their answer.
This will also prevent that musing will be abused by bid bot users who just are interested in upvoting their question to the hilt. Whether for visibility or for profit.
There should be other ways than highest rewarded question to be trending. But they may require to also mirror everything. This may seem lots of work but it will allow you to easily show most replied, fresh and not replied, no answers within 24 hours, etc. etc.
Highest rewarded answers yesterday, last week is also something you could extract without that much effort if every x hours you pull the rewards for all comments.

Haha actually we do that already! I think maybe the UI wasn't clear enough on that. The upvotes are all for the answers. The questions can't be upvoted unless you went to it on Steemit and voted there. It was something we definitely had to think about a lot in the beginning and I'm glad we both agree :)
All the trending/hot/new stuff is based on the answer and not the question. A good amount of work was devoted to ensuring that we didn't base our content suggestion on questions but on answers instead.

Excellent work. Now I also understand why the answers post as posts as well. That makes sense (at least for an initial not-so MVP apparently release).
Now I’m not sure what should be the main curation focus (highlighting): the question or the answer? I think it needs to be a mix. Obviously questions drive the platform. Quality of answer keeps people asking. Popular questions may be the ones most want to see (until the rest ends up in Google - but that may require canonical links first before you can benefit from the SEO as a site).
Personally, considering this is Steem I wouldn’t totally limit rewards on questions. People like to (self) incentivize on this platform. You could make use of
max_accepted_payout
to cap the rewards on the question (during submission to the steem blockchain).Especially those who have long and hard worked to gain some autovoter following may see it as an additional to ask questions. But personally I would keep it low tho, all focus indeed has to be on the answers. A platform like Parley IMHO does it wrong, especially since they have creating conversation in their banner.
Anyway, I like what I’m seeing. I was a little sad to notice that whatapp had become pretty much wasteland but will gladly check musing regularly now. Initially from my alt due to the answers as stand-alone posts tho.

@musing,
Today your project was featured on the #communityGrowthproject you can find the Vlog Here
What I like about Musing.io:
First Musing bring endless possibilities of engagement and curation to the platform. Steemit while wide and broad has many different ways to interact with many people I found myself browsing the many questions and providing answers almost as a kid in the candy store.
This platform has so much potential, it gives the user a chance to ask question, get feedback, and enjoy many humorous and serious answers all in one place. Over the past few years we have found the internet has become a comedy outlet, a troll heaven, and an educational resource all at the same time. Who knew a project so simple could capture all of this.
I hope to see this project continue to grow and develop and wish the team @musing the best of luck with your endevour, If you would ever like to do a live stream question and answer session, or would like the CGP to do a deep dive review please just hit me up and we will get the ball rolling.

Hi @musing I have used Quora in the past and had fun with that platform. I hope musing will be even better because of the rewards. Looking forward to the launch and use of your product. Cheers!

Wholy crap, this is actually 10 kinds of cool.
I honestly forgot about Quora until I read this but to have a bolddecentralized versionbold of the site is pretty freaking huge.
I just hope it does not get too taken advantage of eith regards to truth vs fiction.

I think it's an interesting and beautifully made site. However, I also think it's too broad in the subjects. I know Quora is broad as well, but I am not sure about the quality of questions and answers there.
However, somewhere like stack overflow caters to a very specific type of user, and coders, for example know to always go there for clean content. Being a question/ answer site with broad categories reduces quality, I think.
Another option would be to make it more reddit-like, for short-form posts/ discussions? That would improve the quality of content there. (Just my thoughts :-p)

I've been testing the platform and it's really good.
The only detail I found inconvenient was that both questions and answers are automatically posted on my Steemit profile.
I would like you to fix this problem, I imagine it is possible, so that you can enjoy the Musing platform in a more comfortable way.
I think that for people who don't want all this interaction to be published in their Steemit profile, they will have to independently delete the questions and answers in their profile in Steemit de Musing.
For the rest, I think the concept is fantastic, all that remains is to fix those details.

sounds like an interesting project.
Similar to delegatecall.com in concept, but with actual value attached to the token rewarded (and a much greater scope, delegatecall being only for ethereum-related questions).
it's very similar to https://beta.cent.co in idea, though cent seems to be rather low in terms of popularity, given the one who asks needs to provide the funds X/
If I remember correctly, Cent was where I got my very first Ethereum "dust"

Really nice project, I won't be using it if answering to questions creates a post though. I like to keep my profile page clean and quite frankly thought it would comment on the post, not create a new one just for an answer. The way you handled answers is really awkward.
