My Vision for Steem-Open Sourced Abundance
I was sitting in one night on the msp-waves when @llfarms and @whatsup were talking to @aggroed on the minnow mayor townhall about what everyone's vision for steem is and issued the challenge to the listeners to write something about it for the community.
Here it goes!.......I believe many that have found their way on the platform may only be seeing the trees, but not the entire forest. I have a few cents to add to this conversation. I think Steem means different things for many in the community. This is why there may be a lack of vision for steem in general. So here we go....this is my personal vision for steem.
My personal vision for what this place has been and will continue to be, is a place where open source educational content can take place without being taken down or erased from the world. What do I mean by this? I believe if humanity is to move toward a brighter future we must advance our technology on a rapid scale to cover humanities basic needs.
These would be Food, Clean Water, Shelter, and Energy Production. Using current technologies we could be creating innovations in the backyard and open sourcing these around the world while supporting great ideas and innovations through the steem token.
The means of self-sufficiency become easier to achieve as technologies are developed and open sourced so others may replicate them/improve on them at a rapid pace. This has been shown to me from the few challenges hosted through my Meadows and Makers podcast.
If we are able to support the backyard hacker/maker develop and show their innovations on Steem, then we have a means to create a decentralized open source engineering ecosystem.
The ultimate goal is to provide knowledge for people to take their power back at a rapid pace from the system as it currently stands.
Thank you for your time if you gave this a read!
Howdy sir makinstuff! I love your vision for steem and I couldn't agree more, it could be a real game-changer if it's kept totally uncensored and open sourced.
Thank you sir, yes massively great tool for sharing and growing beneficial technologies in my opinion.
I agree sir makinstuff and I hope it ends up being exactly that!
This is great! Read and enjoyed! I've recently stumbled on your show as well! :)
We are going through these looking for key words and thoughts to compile a community vision. Not that everyone has to use it, but hopefully to reenergize those who have lost touch.
Thanks @whatsup great idea, I think steem is many things for people, but the core is immutability imo.

That is a great vision. I suppose I have never thought about the fact that it could be filled with educational experience is that sense. I know that I love that we can learn things from individuals all over the world, but never really thought about it like being a storage of information moving forward. Be well.
Yeah man, I see it in a way to open source helpful physical mechanisms that can build more abundance. Bypassing the current education paradigm and spurring local economies by replicating or improving upon designs embedded on the blockchain. Trading the classroom for steem driven educational tutorials and transferring real skills for self sufficiency.
