Let's Google This! Boon and Bane of Brands Becoming Verbs In Business

Hi @surfermarly, I don't steemit, but I steem. I am a South African and when somebody asks me what I am doing while steeming, I tell them I "stoom" which is Afrikaans for steem.

You are completely right! I've also used terms like "I'm steeming" or "I wish you a steemy weekend." in the past (thanks for refreshing my memory) :D Then it's similar to Twitter where we are "tweeting".
That an Afrikaans version for steem exists, is incredibly cool! Thanks for sharing it with us :)

Hi surfermarly, we don't have an Afrikaans version, we use the same version, it is just the word "stoom" which actually translate to "steam" , I am so used to "Steem", I spelled it wrong in my original comment.

Welcome to steemit @batata. If you have interesting information about a product, you are invited to share it with the community by publishing corresponding blog posts (as I can see you already did so). However, link dropping in threads of other users is not part of the game. Flagged for spamming.

I'm sorry for bothering you

No problem at all! :) I just wanted to explain the rules. You better don't drop links like that in threads of other people. Try to be smart and communicate your product recommendations through blog posts. Steem on!
