How important is it to be on Facebook? On Twitter? On Reddit? On HN? Indexed by Google? Have connections to the Huffington Post?
If you have something interesting to say, can those forces stop you? Or will it spread because it is interesting?
If you make great art, will it become popular just because it is great? Or does it depend on your marketing skills?

Do we have to invent some kind of "internet voting" system to accomplish this? Can blockchain technology help with this?
