I haven't been on Steem much over the last few days other than writing and commenting. Yes, I have been reading too, but it hasn't been as often as normal due to my schedule. What I have been doing though is participating a little in the 
I only have 6 tweets there so far and a couple retweets, but I plan on tweeting out content that I find on Steem more often. I hope to also remember to add a link to the tweet on the post tweeted and the #PoSh tag as a reminder.
So far, my impressions look like this, but the account is only a few days old.
While not great, considering I have been thus far relatively inactive, I am looking to increase the impression count and hopefully the profile visits also. While I do not have high hopes that I am going to attract a million users to Steem through Twitter, the more Steem gets seen out in the other social medias, the better - and if it is linked with content that might attract a few eyes, all the better again.
For me, social media interaction hasn't been a focus for over three years, even before I got onto Steem, as it didn't compel me to take part. However, once I started getting into Steem, I found the space highly attractive, and it wasn't only the reward component. Once of the best parts about Steem for me is the chance to observe digital behavior and actually see the transactions of it running in the background. I find it fascinating.
On the centralized platforms, they are never going to want to give real insight into these processes to end users because it is not in their best interest to do so. If everyone has access to these behaviors, it lowers the value of the information pool they hold.
So, while I am not great on social media in general, I do think that taking part in putting the good aspects of Steem into the public eye line can be useful, especially in the emerging landscape. With the centralized platforms increasingly flexing their muscles and exerting their control over user content, there is a crack in the door that Steem could get a foot into. 
From here on out and well past the next bullrun to come, it is now a process of building up volumes on Steem; Increase users, increase transactions, increase content, increase consumption, increase token demand, increase applications, increase experience, increase enjoyment - you get the idea.
This doesn't have to be a process driven by speed, it can be gradual. What can happen however is that as Steem starts to onboard users slowly, these increasing factors start to complement, multiply and compound against each other and snowball the process. Combine it with changes in social usage of the internet and global economy, and the speed of adoption could become very rapid and have a massive impact on the entire ecosystem.
there are so many factors involved and while each of us tends to stay narrow with what we know and believe, the ecosystem is larger than any one view, and that is why leveraging the other SoMe can have such an effect as it goes outside of the Steem ecosystem and slowly roots itself all over the internet to create trickling funnels back onto the blockchain.
We all can play a role in this and while I am going to share some of my own content on my Twitter, I am aiming to share a great deal more of other people's work that showcases the best of Steem. I hope others do the same. On Steem, resteeming is somewhat limited for many because of the way the ecosystem works, but sharing on the centralized platforms should be encouraged. At some point, the publicity will arrive.
On a side note, I don't really like cross-posting of content on blockchain sites, but I have no issue leveraging the big SoMe if it will help get a couple more pairs of eyes onto Steem.
Now, I am also looking forward to the introduction of communities for this aspect also, as while I don't normally write short posts, once the community functions allow me to post into communities alone, I can create a great deal of shortform content that is suitable for sharing on other platforms.
I am very conscious on Steem of my content because of the support I often get, so I do not want to take advantage of those who may trust the content I deliver to be of a certain standard. With communities and some nice interfaces, a great deal more content transactions can be created as it takes the pressure of delivering quality and allows for a lot more social interaction and general content aimed toward quick and easy to consume and hopefully, enjoyable and attractive enough to be compelling to engage with.
So, if you haven't heard about #PoSh, you can have a look at 
Steem is ready, are you?
