Training wheels is called mentoring. And I would be happy to mentor you. Let me know when you have read up on everything if you are still interested.
I had actually already obessively gone through 2 of those posts already.... but your links did give me an extra appreciation on how long you've been smashing this blockchain with informative gold.
I've thought about this a lot over the past 20 hours and I'd like to put my hand up too. I think I've come up with an effective strategy on how to tackle this seemingly overwhelming task and, most importantly, help new creators get that first touch of love they need to convince them its worth their time and effort. Steem already has two decent blockchain competitors, and one confusing one (Sola, AMP & Yours) and I think curation is the most important thing to stand above these guys.
I'm still out for NY festivities... but when I get home I'll collect some posts I think might fit the criteria and look you up ready for my homework...
