Let me introduce myself...

andersdult in #introduceyourself • 6 years ago

Hi everyone at Steemit...

My name is Anders Christensen, Denmark. I was born in May 1963.

I live in a small suburb of Copenhagen.

I went through 10 years of school. Afterward, I took an office education. I have been to a high school for languages. I have used my office education a few times by a few jobs but said goodbye to that industry due to no success in the long run. During the years I have had different experiences at different industries inclusively in the cleaning area, as a postman and newspaper delivery man. Since 2009 I have been working as a station officer at the Danish Railways.

In my spare time, I have a few but major interests. I am a long distance runner (the attached photo is from the year when I was at my best):

, use my Internet connection a lot, like to watch a good movie on a day off and listen to hit music at rarely moments usually on a day off too.

Not long ago, earlier this year, I read about this special kind of a social media site, Steemit, from an email promotion. Currently, I am almost finished with the set up of my new account.

My cover image is not 100% completed. It is not THAT easy to create it with the correct size. I will work on it later on.

My goal for this introduction is not to provide a novel long one but to give interested readers a basic knowledge about, who I am and a bit of my life background.

I have a more serious goal: To learn more about how to use Steemit and get interesting connections with other members.

I will end my introduction here... Today, it is the 20th of April 2019.

Greeting, Anders Christensen

Welcome to the new social. I also run, but I can't claim to be very quick. It's just for fun and fitness. Your fellow dane @katharsisdrill may be near you

Hi and welcome here! When I started on steemit, my biggest problem was to find interesting people to interact with. So, to help newcomers getting started I created a directory with other interesting and or talented steemians to follow or interact with. Feel free to check it out at https://www.steemiandir.com I am sure it will help you find like-minded people. Enjoy your stay here and do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

Welcome to steem. I’ve always thought long distance running has got to be one of the hardest sports to tackle

Hello Anders, that's a kind of scary picture.. though you could say that same about mine. ;)

I read about this special kind of a social media site, Steemit, from an email promotion.

I'm interested to know about this promotion, care to tell us?

There is a large running community on Steemit and ActiFit also pays in tokens and rewards in votes for using their dApp and writing about activities.

https://actifit.io/

Anyway, welcome to the world of STEEM, and I'll try to kickstart your blog with a vote and resteem.

Now to the bonus part of my reply. Scary picture... Well, had not thought of it as scary myself.

Well, this promotion. I don´t have the email message anymore, but the included promotion link redirected me to this page: http://getcontenu.com/live/

This looks like it's easy and I'll warn you it's not at all.
I don't want to put you off as a new blogger but don't expect too much, and typically intro posts do better than the ones following.

Right now nobody knows who you are, and so they wont come to you. Try and gain a following, be patient and you will get noticed if you can write.

I wish you all the best, and will be mentioning you in my next post.. (as it's pre-written).

Welcome to steemit!

Here is some information every newbie should know:

The value of an upvote is related to how much Steem Power the upvoter holds, as well as the current market price for the STEEM cryptocurrency coin.
Upvotes are not infinite, but they recharge. The more upvotes a person uses, the less it will be worth next time. On average, each person can give 10 full upvotes per day, because it's also how much upvotes recharge daily. People have to pick between many posts to decide what they're going to upvote, often choosing something they like but also taking profits into consideration. If someone doesn't upvote you, they could be waiting for their voting to recharge.
Your free account started with a borrowed 15 Steem Power. As you earn from your posts and comments, that will be taken away until you're standing on your own feet in the platform.
Remember to both give and take. If people only want to take away from the platform, the STEEM coin will eventually be worth nothing, because then everyone wants to sell while noone would be willing to buy.
If you run into posting limitations, that means you need more Steem Power. It's like a "bandwidth". The more you hold, the more you can do. It recharges, but slowly if you don't have much SP.
Steem Power can be bought, but it can also be delegated (borrowed/lent) using a steemit command. It can be undone by using a similar command too, so the delegator is in complete control.
You can check those bandwidth and voting metrics on the steemnow website.

Follow me, @felipejoys (click), if you like posts about #steemit or #gaming. I also upvote everyone who upvotes and comments my posts or give them some other prize.
Did you know you can @makemoneygaming? Click to find out more!

I have attached a picture from the steemnow website below so you can see what it's all about. Note: I don't own the website.

Welcome to Steem, Anders! That's a great photo of you. How long have you been a long distance runner? Though you've likely already been notified of the DApp #actifit, I suggest that you give the initiative a gander as it will be another way for you to connect with our blockchain community. What type of movies do you enjoy watching in your downtime?

Wishing you joy and success in your journey on our platform and hope that you'll feel free to ask any questions that you may have.

We encourage everyone to explore the various posts and to leave personal comments on those that you wish (for example - thoughts regarding the content or a sharing of a similar experience you've had). This platform thrives through interaction as it's the best way to build relationships with other Steemians while finding communities and initiatives that peak your interests.

We like to advise bloggers to cite if images, videos, etc. used in their posts are of their own creation. This practice gives the creators an opportunity to have it clearly labeled that the works portrayed are the rightful property of the party posting it.

Another tip that we share with everyone is to be careful of copyright infringement when using material that is not of their original creation. Content (for example - images from a website) that grants permission for reuse is acceptable for content creators to utilize within their posts provided there is appropriate attribution to the source. Here's a link that will provide you with more information.

We wanted to let you know, we have given you a 25% upvote, are now following you, and are introducing you to everyone we know. You can visit our post HERE.

Welcome to the Steem Community.
