Main User Interface and Navigation Menu
Proposal Description
Add a new tab to the horizontal navigation menu in Steemit.com to show only posts from Witnesses.
The new list of posts would ideally be sorted by posting time rather than by post payout value, to ensure that the wealthiest witnesses don't have an unfair advantage in communicating their posts.
Benefits
This will allow users a greater ease of use when seeking to learn about witnesses and what their interests and intentions are. The idea here being to not only help Steemians pick the witnesses that best serve them, but to also generally promote awareness of witnesses and what they do. And additional benefit would be that newer witnesses would gain additional exposure and possibly also upvotes that could help them achieve their goal of being a reliable witness.
This is an interesting idea. There is definitely a little disconnect on the UX end. People don't understand or care what witnesses do.
It may be worth a try, for people curious to learn more about Steemit to. New users would have an easier way to peek behind the curtain and see what witnesses are up to.
I remember seeing witness posts as a newbie and they were so technical I was turned off. it was like they were written in a different language. One of the things I'm going to try and do is create more digestible witness content for average users.
anyway, cool idea. I wouldn't mind seeing a tab

Aloha!
Absolutely, yes - there is a lot of potential for community interaction with witnesses that is not being leveraged. For one, we witnesses are often well connected into emerging projects and technologies that relate to the blockchain, so having their blogs more exposed would only be beneficial for the growth of the eco-system as a whole I think. :)
