Hmmmm...I don't think this idea is right for steemit. It's a really awesome idea, but steemit is a blog, and this idea isn't right for a blog. The more I think about it, this is an idea for a collaborative wiki where each update to a page gets paid for. Like a STEEM version of Wikipedia. Is there something like that already? If not, that would be a really great idea to flesh out. Wiki's run on steem. This way people can upvote specific contributions or just the entire page.

I get that more than one person can contribute on the information in a blog without being a blog writer as well, but that's a pretty slippery slope. Like if someone does data mining, then obviously that work should be rewarded. If someone defines the strategy or scope of work for a project, then they should be rewarded for that. The thing is that none of those belong in a blog, so trying to use a blog to reward people in that way is I think incorrect.

The problem being described sounds like we need more products.

  1. A wiki
  2. A project management site
  3. A data analysis site
  4. A photo gallery site

It's just incredible to me that people are posting so many photos to steemit, but there's no gallery. No flickr/500px/photobucket substitute where people can post their photos and have them voted on instead of it being blogged straight to steemit.

Or even a Jira/Confluence or github substitute written for steem. These are all ideal solutions to the problems we're having. Trying to retrofit steemit as anything, but a blog seems wrong.

Sort:  

A Wikipedia like Steemit (Wikisteemia) lol. That would be interesting. It would allow for forks on articles. Edits to an article could be downvoted and if that happens enough, then they would be hidden from a user. This type of system would work well for Git also. I'm not sure what they have out there in the project pipeline, but it would be nice to know about them if they exist yet.

Another dapp that seems to be missing from the steem ecosystem is one for fivers. I'd like to see a Fiver app in steem. I'd do Fiver's all day.
