I think anyone who can put the time in now and build a truly exceptional user interface that sorts content in a way other than moneytary and allows you to do what you were talking about above will be the new steemit.com.
Im keeping an eye on steeve and steempeak right now as they seem to doing the most to innovate in this area. I maybe wrong but I think there is a need for improvement in the interface and whoever can meet the need the best will see the most users in the next bull run.

Yep, they are the two that are doing the most at the moment and both from different perspectives. I would like to see an "Account management application" that allows a user to set global sttings and perhaps manage specific settings across applications.
the best way to do this is perhaps to add information to the blockchain that all front ends can go and take a look at and recognize what preferences a user may have. Then that front end may or may not even impliment those features. How many front ends would actually do it? It puts a large burden of UI work and also work to make a UI search for and save those settings and I'm guessing slows down the UI because before they display the posts they would have to check against the list of what should be filtered out. Maybe something could be done at the API level. Not sure.
Also it may be worth waiting to see how communities solves this by compartmentalizing topics and groups of people with similar interest.
I have no idea about communities yet but the first time I heard about the coming soon was in February 2017 :D
What I am hoping for however is that an account can maintain its 'clean presence' on a platform while still using other platforms for their purposes. The general content interfaces put everything in together (mostly) and it gets kind of messy for viewers who might not care much for some content. I remember that when people were sharing their tweets to Facebook, it was annoying :D What ever happened to Facebook anyway?
Have you used keychain? It probably wouldnt ve very straight forward right now, but I think you could use keychain to do that right now.
Well that would only work on chrome right now since it doesn't have a app on ios or android yet.
Yep, I mentioned it in the article as the verifier but it could do several things.
@yabapmatt @aggroed @stoodkev ^ any ideas?
