Instant Messaging is to the Internet Age, what the telephone, television, and digital camera were to the 20th century; COMBINED!
For this reason, I suggest the development of a STEEM-backed social-media app.
Friends and family would join via Steem Connect.
Payout funds would be generated by investor backing.
Intermingled within blogs, would be an instant-messaging feed for 'friends'.
The IM feed could be set to private for personal use.
The Steemit I-M App would be separate from the current blogging platform; as, according to some users, instant messaging is a mega distraction, and highly addictive.
That’s it!
Peace.
