Just one small comment here: @Zeus and @crowetic, I definitely get what you're both saying about the surfbar being "bad," as it introduced potential vulnerability to community members.
But I'd also like to add that things like this are what kept me motivated to progress my involvement with the chain early on. It seemed like it was sent by the gods (Zeus?) early in my journey here. The surfbar basically gave anyone with a data connection the ability to earn. The small but regular payments made it seem possible to actually be part of the Burst economy in a meaningful way, without much extra effort.
I only comment on this now because I would hate to see such ideas completely abandoned, it helps people stack some coin, at least in the beginning. And a decent amount too. An amount that would cost them a lot more money if they wanted to purchase HDDs and such. But anyway...
Hated by some, loved by many... R.I.P. Surfbar 2-9-2017
