Im excited about the various developments that the platform has run through the pass year. I almost lost hope of signing up newbies due to less real interactions from people on the blockchain. At a point i felt there was no hope for newbies as there wasn't any major support for them. I see things have changed a little with the various developments that has come so far. Steemit is a great community as a large and has a tremendous power and anyone on it possesses such power. Though the major set back that prevents people from easily signing up is not yet fixed, we cannot go on waiting for it to be fixed. We have to make use of what we have.
How good it felt those days to bring more people to steem. But steem didnt favour many to retain.

Steemboarding is here again and i want to reawaken all the giants in Ghana who has taken it as their course to spread the news about steemit. 
It is my only hope that steemit will make sign up easier and free for all. It might not cost much to many investors who want to sign up and do business but it cost a lot to someone who just wants to come and have fun. Facebook and the likes wouldnt have reached mainstream if it was left to payment. Whatsapp almost lost tons of users when there was a rumor about a 2$ fee a year. Lets make it easier and faster for new users and we will be mainstream before we know it.
Lets make steemit stand great. The details as to the contest can be found the parent article below:
