Excellent points Angie. That's exactly how I saw it as well - a blogging platform vs a social media platform. I have yet to see why both can't co-exist and perhaps even help each other. I'd love it if I could write a blog post or series and then interact with others in a social media situation.

If you look at the traditional way of doing things, that's exactly what happens. I write a Word Press or website blog and then have a FaceBook page or group for a free wheeling discussion of the ideas presented in the post. The FB or other platform users interact and go to the blog and vice versa. I'm truly excited about ONO for many reasons, but will not be giving up my blog posting on Steemit anytime soon.
