Yesterday I posted a Steemit gig in which I offered 20 SBD for someone to transcribe an interview that Dan Larimar had done in which he praises Steemit! There was a lot of interest but many thought that it was just too much work!
Here is the original gig: The Old Dog Hires: Help Me, Help You to Help Steemit! Post Contains A Paid Steem Gig!
Forget The Old Gig! I'm Raising The Payment to 50 SBD!
Considering the fact that 1 SBD is worth about $1.75 it makes this gig worth about $87.50!
Keep These Points In Mind!
- I don't need the whole show transcribed but only the parts where Dan Larimar speaks about Steemit!
- The Steemit part starts at about the 29:30 mark and then Steemit is mentioned off and on.
- I don't need all of the hosts parts but just his questions leading to Dan's awesome answers!
- This is not only about making money for the gig but it will provide a valuable resource for all to use!
Here Are The Details Of The Gig
- The transcription should be e mailed to me and will remain my property until I post it in a Steemit article after which anyone can use all of it or portions of it as they see fit.
- I will leave the offer to do the gig open for 24 hours from the time of posting. If you want to do the gig just leave a comment and perhaps why you would be capable of doing a good job.
- Once I have selected someone you will have 3 days to complete the gig.
- If I select you I will send you my e mail address through steemit.chat
Here is the Interview:
Is It Too Much work?
I'll let you decide that. I don't have the time, the technical skill or the typing speed to get it done. I was hoping that someones would use voice to text software and then edit it to a good quality.
Until next time,
@kus-knee (The Old Dog)
Remember, I reward the best comment(s) on each of my posts with my "The Old Dog is Throwing You a Bone" program! So please re-steem and follow so that we can spread the wealth!
@kus-knee
I've watched the interview already. I am fascinated with Dan Larimar, Bitshares and Steemit.
Taking on the gig and doing the translation would support me in substantiating the depth of my understanding into these issues.
This is a dream gig for me! Getting paid to learn! Genius!
I like the price as it is. I will not low-ball myself and the overall community in hopes of getting the gig at a less than advertised offer.
In my opinion - the, "Low-Baller-Effect" is a massive world wide issue in which the quality of life, labor, and our planet is devalued.
Recently It's been fascinating to learn from Dan Larimar, more about the 'business model' approach of bitshares...and the importance of not devaluing the work. Specifically he was talking about exchanges undercutting one another and many having difficulty creating profit sustainability.
I've been in the steemit space for about a month now, i see massive upside potential. I realize and understand Dan Larimar is brilliant. I've made a commitment to educating myself further about all things steemit and bitshares. Everyday I am learning new things. I am so passionate about learning.
I am optimistic that the possibility exists for me to substantiate my claim here and develop a relationship with you and possibly provide more translation services in the future.
Grateful to be here and Grateful for the opportunity.
Thank You @kus-knee

You guys know there's an easy way to get Youtube transcripts simply as copy-paste. Youtube creates the close captioning automatically, all you need to do is get the text and maybe format it? I know it won't be the perfect stuff in terms of words recognition and stuff but it's 95% there.

@kus-knee
Ok so this gig was first published about two days ago and in the sea of comments on that post, only about three or four folks indicated their interest in the gig.
With a fellow steemian indicating that the gig could be split among those that were interested, I set to work almost immediately because I believed i'd at least get a part. Plus I really had nothing else to do. At the moment, i'm just coming out of a somewhat crazy phase i wrote about in my most recent post and I saw this as an opportunity to cement my push back into writing again.
However, on logging in today, I found out there was a new post concerning the gig and my first reaction was "Oh my!".
I'd love to do this. In fact i've already begun to do this and will appreciate if you see this as a good enough reason to give me the "official" go ahead to finish it up. It would be a nice service to the community and also help towards my target of writing at least a thousand words daily.
Thank you.

OK we just spoke in steemit.chat and you did offer to do it when I announced the first Gig! Sorry about any confusion to other members but we'll get better at this gig thing as we go along.
This is the official announcement that I'm rewarding you the Gig. According to the agreement you have 3 days to deliver the finished product. That is Saturday at 15:00 GMT. I have sent you my private email in steemit.chat and as soon as I have the transcript I'll send the SBD within about 12 hours.
