yes, so many programmers! I love it because even though I taught myself to do some coding back in the day, I don't like it too much.....my skills are more artistic, so it's a match made in heaven with so many nerds here!

and we will need your help, as this is a community driven thing......we are working together, and each person brings the skills necessary to make it successful. it sounds like you're passionate about this idea.....if you're wanting to contribute let me know. I have several jobs right now (too many to list actually) but I felt so strongly that I could make a difference in this area because I'm a freelancer, employer, and a person who wants people to have more freedom in their lives. Ideally, I'd like to focus on creating a new gig economy that actually works.....the trick is, Steemit has way different rules, that are more tribe-oriented. It's a new paradigm that people don't understand well. 
If you look at tribes, some in the past, the most alpha tribe leaders, the ones with the most power were the ones who gave the tribe the most meat. So if a hunter was really good, he shared his spoils with his tribe. This is the opposite paradigm of the corporate elite centralized authority model. Steemit is much more similar to the older tribe model, that relied on the gift economy, aligning with those who are givers. This is the part of the system that people need to be educated about. It's a shift in consciousness that is required for maximum success.
