Build a disruptive web business by adding rewards
Quora was recently valued at $1.8bn and raised another $80m in capital. Musing.io arguably has a better business model since it also rewards its contributors. Disrupt the existing big players by building rewards into your business. Get off to a fast start by leveraging Steem's existing communities of contributors and marketers and their global reach.

You've built your ecological website to save the world, Ilovetrees.com, but now you face the mountainous task of travelling around the world to collect photos and write text on all those different trees. Carbon footprint! Instead base your website on Steem and outsource this arduous but worthy task to Steem's audience of dedicated contributors. Reward the best contributors and see your data-trees grow!
Similar ideas, but I think that one of the real strengths of Steem will end up being engaging communities to help build and grow things and rewarding them for their efforts, essentially "employing" thousands of people with different skills for an hour or so a day.
