IDEA: Steem-Powered Micro-Blogging

Steem-Powered Micro-Blogging


Mission:

The idea is to create a censor resistant decentralized micro-blogging application that sits on top of the Steem Blockchain.



What is the problem?

Short form micro-blogging is still a necessary format in the SteemIt ecosystem. We have the long-tail with the main SteemIt platform , but short-form is under served and the platform in it’s current form doesn’t accommodate this need well.



What is the solution?

Nate Brune had envisioned a version of Twitter on SteemIt originally called Squeak. We’ve decided to expand on this vision with some better functions and features. For example, as we mentioned in the SteemPoll, we are interested in creating a way where people can hit a promotion button randomly and it would send $45 dollars to some lucky user on the new platform. There is a need to bring real value to SteemIt.



How will you prove your project was a success?

Data can be leveraged to show success. Using the blockchain you’ll be able to mine out interesting tidbits of information to the public for transparency. User retention, the # of ( squeaks ), and sign up’s. This will be all visible and available through json data. The app data will show the the success of the project.


The Other Goods:

We’ll be doing a complete re-branding overhaul of this project from From Squeak to new name soon. There will be other additional changes done. For the moment, enjoy some of the future goals upon launch!

  • Multi lang support
  • Multi lang special characters support
  • Great user ui/ux
  • Image uploading
  • Either uploaded to image hosting site or hosting them ourselves.
  • Private messaging system
  • Poll system
  • Tipping system
  • Internal market ?
  • Blocktrades integration ?


Extra BONUS just for you all!


Since we love our community we’d love to extend an offer of the community really becoming apart of this project. We want you to help us name the service!
So have at it give it your best shot and just maybe, you’ll be naming one of the most talked about projects on SteemIt!
Take a moment and post what kind of name you would love to see this App. named! In the meantime, here is a sneak peak:
