True Confession:

Almost 2 weeks ago my general manager said we ( the sales factotem ) needed a Facebook account to participate in some corporate thing.

I said, no.

Then I qualified and said, I know how the social networks operate.

Then I pondered and thought, Maybe I'm missing out.

Then I had a sick vomit feeling in my stomach and my soul communicated to me that I might as well lick snot off of the pavement.

The truth is that corporations are just grasping straws. The organic network is the best and will always be the best. Keep your technology simple and open and your customers will enjoy your products.

With this in mind all small businesses that use NOSTR will be successful because the hoops to usage are hoops that are also gaining skill. The more skillful your customers, are the more resource rich they will be. Even if you don't directly buy or sell from each other you are still learning and that brings the tide up higher and higher.

We still have lightning as an issue that is trust me and that's still a problem. I think the mints are also in the trust me. But we also might as well think that the lightning user is a customer and in order to give the lightning providers incentives we might want to peg some tangible services.
