Hello! I am Cryptogee and I'm delighted to be joining @donkeypong on the Spotlight writing team. With so many new accounts being created everyday and the price of Steem going through the roof. We need now more than ever a Steemit magazine to keep track of everything that's been going on since Steem Independence Day.
This week I have decided to follow the #introduceyourself, this tag has always been popular and none more so than now. With thousands of new users per week, bringing their diverse interests to Steemit, this is the hashtag to keep an eye on when looking for fresh new content.
So without further ado, let's look at Issue #5 of Spotlight.
Brian Blackman has been on Steemit for 5 days now and has decided to make a name for himself in the #art section. He has posted up a couple of great timelapse videos of him painting, my favourite being; This Is Me Painting A Willie. Which is of Brian painting the music legend, Willie Nelson.
I think why I like Brian, is he brings a fresh voice to Steemit and he seems like a fun bubbly person, with bags of charisma.
This can clearly be seen in his #introduceyourself post; Hi Steemit! I'm just a dude who likes to paint, write, and post time lapse videos! Wheree you can see another one of his great time lapse videos.
I have suggested to Brian in the comment section that the next video he makes he should put a check me out on Steemit button and he has agreed that this would be a great idea.
@brianblackman will be an excellent community member, so please stop by and give him some love, in the form of your comments and votes.
Heidi is another new Steemit user who is bringing refreshing new content to Steemit. Heidi is a travel blogger and a good one at that. She is up for adventure and discovery on her travels and documents what she sees in a thoughtful and insigtful way.
Her posts are peppered with interesting stories and great photography; Heidi is the sort of person who will jump up and go off somewhere on a whim, so make sure you keep checking her blog for the next chapter of her adventure.
At the moment she is writing about her impromptu trip to Marakesh in Morocco, called; 14 Days in North Africa Part: 1
Wingz joined Steemit.com a few weeks ago and even though he only has one week's worth of articles up, he has fully embraced our amazing new community. @wingz is an excellent analytical writer who has been focusing on the potential of Steemit.
His analytical skills are really showcased in his most recent article My Journey Peeling back the Economic Layers of the Steemit Onion...
There are a lot of people writing about Steemit at the moment, but I've highlighted Wingz because his views are coming from a new user, so it is good to get this perspective. Plus the simple way he explains things, will appeal to other new users.
I'm looking forward to reading more from @wingz, so get over there and check him out.
Roeland claims that he is going to bring Boy Power to Steem, he is into tech, Bitcoin, NSFW and fail vids, with that in mind he is starting those tag categories (although I'm sure we already have a Bitcoin one!).
@roelandp is clearly a fun guy with varying interests and apart from his #introduceyourself post; Hello. It's Roeland! I'm bringing BOYPOWER to Steem! He has posted a couple of articles that have caught my eye and I hope he does more.
The first is his, How Dwarf Stars Can Be So Bright ✨✨. Secondly I'm hoping he carries on his; This Week in Photos series
.
Stop by and give @roelandp some love, you will have plenty to read and I'm sure he'll keep you entertained.
Alex is an English writer living in Spain, he has a great #introduceyourself post; I'm Alex - British writer, hermit, in exile in Spain, which will help you get to know him and will introduce you to his friendly style.
@alexc has a wide range of interests and his post content has ranged from political observations, to a sweet post of him being drunk after a night on a terrace with friends and some people they had met earlier.
Alex is definitely one to watch and I'm looking forward to seeing which direction his blog goes in from here.
