Great news on the rankings. Can't remember where i saw it first earlier but I know my elation is yet to die down. The steem blockchain is going places, and even though steemit won't be the only tool that gets us there, it is a very very important piece of the puzzle. With the other frontends and backends and beautiful applications I won't be surprised when others are getting dumbfounded by the success of steem and steemit.
Good job on reaching to Ben Swann, saw your resteem of his post the other day and I also noticed earlier he was making < $1. I hope we can all encourage him to stay. We need more people like that to make steem grow!
