I want to introduce myself

in #introduceyourself • 8 years ago

Hello steem community,

I am Jonathan Fishbein. I am from Washington D.C. I have a interest in functional programming and would be interested in reading and writing about it. I have experience with elm and F# and I am diving now into Haskell.

I previously developed a website wonktonk.com that aspired to be a global people's think tank, a platform for collaborative public & foreign policy development. Unfortunately the website was based on the web2.0 concepts and didn't incentivize participation enough. I am curious if the steem community would appreciate a site such as wonktonk? Would the community enjoy using it if it was connected to the steem blockchain and posts would be monetarily rewarded?

Would be most appreciative of your insights and always interested in meeting fellow fp enthusiasts.

Jonathan

    Hello jonathanfishbein! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

    1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
    2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
    3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
    4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
    5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
