Thanks for the list.
I found the SMT story most interesting, it had me looking forward to the future of Steemit and SMTs. I've read about SMTs before, but that post helped me get a better understanding about them. It's just now that I realized how much of an impact they could have, once released.
Among the newer articles, I found the Chart Your Course Challenge very useful. It got me thinking about how I plan to chart my course in this platform.
Thanks for reading and sorry for the late reply. I've been so busy and not getting notified for older posts. I think there is much value in watching your growth rate. It can also help us learn how to grow faster by doing what works and not doing what doesn't as much. I use a spreadsheet in my phone for basic tracking. There's also some tools you can use that make certain charts for you. I've yet to discover them all but there's 2 repositories I like most: steem tools and steem projects. They have lots of tools in there to get charts.
SMT's might be groundbreaking. I really look forward to how they'll be used.
