Perception matters. Public image matters. Proposal for a competition to improve the official website.

It seems u are personally offended by my comment - if so i apologize - this was not my intent. You have many good points here .. pls take into your consideration that due the massive growth and success of the early beta most people at the dev team had to work in getting steemit.com tweaked and polished. So maybe the lack of updates are caused by the lack of man power currently!

Sir, yes, sir! I'm sure you did mention it before but I was just not paying attention. I deeply regret using this phrase. I just did not know it annoys you so much. I promise - I'll never do it again. Please forgive me. And I hope you'll still upvote my posts.

Pity to see how serious u did take this comment - we have free speech here and your comment on this is (as @steempower mentioned before) a bit off. To go one bit further IMO u are insinuate i would stop voting for your after u are getting upset on my comment and expressing that. But hehe, i'm not taking it personal, as i'm able to see you have good interests and also good ideas to work with so i value the good points by far more then the bad ones ..
(Maybe u noticed i have also voted for this post - so …)

Nice suggestions i think there is some real value in the feedback you have given. When i am assessing a project i like to find the right mix of professionalism, transparency and ability to translate the vision to me without having to trawling through the whitepaper; i like to see the team, the goals or 'edge', the road map and latest news or releases.

Let's start working together to get this achieved :)

As I already stated it in another comment, it was never about me being offended but about us being careful in this anonymous space.

I could say the same now: pity to see how serious u did take my comment about your comment. But OK, all is clear now, and let's start working together as you suggest.

And I really appreciate your upvote in this context. It's great to see people acting like that.

i will get in contact with @cass tomorrow ;)! IIRC he is in charge of steem.io or at least he was creating the first version with help of @dan and @ned

That's great.

I was thinking of doing it this way:

  • First, let's hear some kind of acknowledgement from the biggest shareholders that the steem.io website is not satisfactory, does not match the current status of Steem and a significant improvement is needed. We just need the whales to acknowledge the need for action, nothing else. Otherwise it's hard to start doing anything when you're not sure, if there is any real demand for it.
  • Open up a competition to design and then maintain the website. This could also include redoing the introductory video. We already have all the resources needed: the funding & voting mechanism plus lots of creative people. We we just need someone like @ned or @dan or any other big shareholder to trigger this process (by announcing it) and then the process will take care of itself.
  • Create a new Steem tag (e.g. "steem-website-competition") and set a date when all proposals should be revealed under this special tag. When the date arrives, we have a vote, choose a winner and let her/him take over the task of redoing and then maintaining the website. Runners-up might choose to build their websites anyway, but the winner will have the privilege of being the official Steem website.

Big idea..!!! nice post & congrats @innuendo
