@condra, @rhi-marie and I have been discussing this. What if there was a valueless vote, something unattached to your "Steem" vote, that you could just use to say...dare I say it..."I <b>LIKE</b> this" without investing your daily voting power. These likes, coupled with the "Steem" votes and the page views for a post could be used to help push the post up the list.  If everyone had an equal, valueless like to give whenever they want, perhaps the content on the front page wouldn't be just popular authors whose posts are know to give good curation rewards. The curation system IS flawed right now as people are just scrolling the new feed, trying to find popular authors to support in exchange for a quick buck. But if, while scrolling along you could still tell the world what you like, while saving your "Steem" vote for the evil task of filling your wallet, a more well rounded representation of what's interesting would rise to the top.

Does this make sense? I think @rhi-marie is going to make a post about this. So check out her blog,

And also, if people want to help diversify content, head on over to the #steemittalentcompetition and give it a read. @condra, this is a great, thanks for your support in the past and I love to read what you have to say. <b>followed</b>
