So I came with the this new idea of adding the "Steemit WorldMap tab" on Steemit. I believe this is a great differentiator to attract potential users related to the travel industry. There are many bloggers out there about traveling and vacations (and this is a huge industry), that I think this can be an interesting feature to make this people come to steemit and learn about crypto, and start spreading the word on steemit, on their traditional blogs and social media platforms too. This ends up being publicity (free advertising) for the platform.
The steemit world map http://www.steemitworldmap.com/ (created by "martibis" and "blueorgy") is a great app for travel enthusiasts to showcase their experiences, as well to connect with other steemians that are in other parts of the world sharing their experiences.
The 3 main reasons for creating the "Steemit World Map tab or link" are:
Reason 1: It will attract potential users that like to write or read about travelling. Since the steemit worldmap is an innovative way of making connections between travellers and their experiences, it will act as a motivator for travel bloggers and enthusiasts to signup on steemit, in order to try the steemit worldmap function.
Reason 2: The steemit platform is very powerful, so adding great features already developed (like the Steemit Worldmap) on its front-end, will help the platform to be perceived with all its potential, increasing the number of people/visitors that decide to try it out.
Reason 3: Per "StephenKendal" and "Starkerz" discussion of implementing the steembassadors on the steemit worldmap, this brought into my mind, that the steemit worldmap will start having many other useful uses for the community. This one of the steembassadors is great, because different steemians around the world are promoting steemit in big, and with the world map, they can be easily noticed and found, by potential users and new users, and the ambassadors of each region can act as mentors for them.
The "learn more" link, will send the potential user or current user to a page were we can add a few videos and written content explaining:
1- What is the steemit worldmap for and how to use it
2- What is steem
3- What is steemit
4- How you earn rewards on steemit
5- How you can convert steem or sbd rewards into bitcoin, ethereum and litecoin or other crypto, and finally into fiat
6- Any other important details that will help people understand this is true, and that the steem blockchain and steemit is an open and helpful community, looking to enpower people, return the control to them, leaving banks and governments on the side.
The main idea for each "learn more" is that users attracted to certain features, (anyone, in this case the steemit worldmap) can learn the most important details about cryptocurrency, and all thanks to the steem blockchain. Each of this apps, features need to act as the attracting factor, to get new users on crypto, and thus on steem and the steemit platform.
Here are 3 possible locations. I created a rough design, however, they should to be designed according the steemit style.
On the third location, I thought it would be good to place it inside a primary tab (Steemit Apps). So in this way their is space to add all other important tabs that will attract people from other markets and industries.

I think it could be fun to have a world map. On the other hand it would not be very accurate since people have to type in whatever they want. Right now you can even have several locations, like me.

Agreed @flauwy ! For sure it will be improved later on, as all other apps, right? And it can be used for several other interesting things, like adding region steembassadors, like @stephenkendal and @starkerz suggested. @gold84

One note for future Utopian submissions: Don't use Steemit related things like "Hi Steemians and Utopians" - even if you contribute to Steemit itself. This contribution is stored on the GITHub repository and addressed to the project owners - not your friends. It must be a bit more formal.
