Today, according to steemstory.com by @roelandp, I celebrate my 1 month anniversary on Steemit! By entering my name there, I had the confirmation that I joined on August 19. Coincidentally, a month later to the day, I’ve reached the 100 followers marked! Sharing what I found in here.

We know that Steemit is a lot about words, blogging, commenting... and even chatting at steemit.chat.

If reading is your thing, there are two Steemzines projects I know of so far.

The Viewfinder Steemzine by @jamtaylor, self-described as a bi-weekly ezine available exclusively on Steemit featuring the work of ‘local’ photographers and writers on various topics within photography.

The Orconomist by @cryptogee, the trading and finance new steemzine!

But if you are also into statistics and data analysis, you will be happy as a fish in water while swimming at SteemWhales.com by @heimindanger. You can even create an overview of you Whale status like the one below.

Learn how to with @kurtrohland's explanations.

Another cool thing @kurtrohlandt can teach you is this original way of thanking your top 5 voters through his Shout Out tool.

If you want to get a lot more specific on your best voters, steemvp.com by @roelandp will help you.

And if you are looking for a converter to know how much is worth in other currencies your wallet full of STEEM or Steem Dollars (SBD), you can go at value.steem.network by @someguy123.

Then again @kurtrohland putted a great tool related to the Steem market price in his Steemit Image Tools - Pimp your posts.

Maybe you are new around here and couldn’t care less about Steemians ranks and numbers and in this case I should apologize that I have been rude for not welcoming you aboard before.

Sorry for bragging about my minnow status, Iouldn't help having fun with yet another tool by @kurtrohland.

If you don't care about following a mere minnow, you can always Catch A Whale by @blueorgy .

Or maybe you are looking for a date. Then Steamy Or Not? by @roelandp can be the place to have fun voting for the pretty faces on Steemit and... who knows?

For more apps & tools read Your complete guide to the tools available on steemit - Part 1, Part 2 or Part 3 by @jaycobbell.

Still, let me try to make up for the botched introductions by leading you toward some of the beginner’s helps that were very useful during my first fin strokes in this white and blue sea. Text editing or formatting is the basics of decent posting. Another way to embellish your writings and thus to attract readers is by putting photos in your work. My favourite site for image hosting is called steemimg.com by @blueorgy.

Now I have used the word fun more than once so far and getting to this point you might start to be tempted to say: ''well, were is the real fun @heroic15397? And if by real fun, games is what was meant, we are coming to it.

The most popular play interaction on Steemit is probably the Steemit Photo Challenge by @jamtaylor.

Another one putting people's skills to the test is the Steemit Crypto Challenge by @timsaid.

Writing and hunting talents have also been used for games purposes on the platform with the storytelling Alpha Game runned by a collective led by @dwinblood and Steem Global by @echoesinthemind taking treasure hunting to all corners of the world.

If you don't care for skills, but are only into games of chance, you'll be happy to learn there is the Steem Global lottery by @echoesinthemind. Talking about luck, whenever you need a diceroll on Steemit, don't be affraid to call in @dicebot by @raymonjohnstone.
