One of the biggest problems I have with steemit is dealing with the 'ephemeracy' of the system. It is too much like Twitter - posts go racing by in your home page feed without a care in the world. If you don't happen to catch them in the moment or if they are not resteemed they are gone and the chance for you to make their acquaintance is seemingly lost forever. **This is a great shame - and weakness of steemit perhaps - as there is some excellent content being produced that really isn't getting the attention (and just reward) it deserves.** So in the absence of any bookmarking type feature in steemit I have been recording in a spreadsheet all the posts I spot with good solid content that I might want to refer to again. **I wondered if others here would be interested in the lists I am compiling?** Here is a sample of part of the first list I have for homesteading topics. If anyone thinks this is useful as a reference source I will post the whole list periodically as I update it. _I even have a zippy acronym for the lists - SIPP, steemit index of permanent posts 😊_ If there are any homesteading reference material type posts you have come across that you think would be good for the list do let me know in the comments. --- #### GENERAL * [The Difference between a PREPPER and a HOMESTEADER](https://steemit.com/homesteading/@gardengirlcanada/the-difference-between-a-prepper-and-a-homesteader) -- @gardengirlcanada #### EDUCATION & SKILLS - * [A Free Resource No Homesteader Should Be Without](https://steemit.com/homesteading/@farmstead/your-local-state-and-county-extension-services) -- @farmstead #### CRAFTS - SPINNING, WEAVING, KNITTING * [Is Handspinning Wool on the Homestead a dying art?](https://steemit.com/homesteading/@gardengirlcanada/is-handspinning-wool-on-the-homestead-a-dying-art) -- @gardengirlcanada #### FINANCE - * [Money Savings Tips for Homesteaders](https://steemit.com/life/@erinia22/money-savings-tips-for-homesteaders) -- @erinia22 #### BUILDING & SHELTER - CONSTRUCTION * [Outdoor Kitchen Build - Part 1 - Budget, Design, & Construction Video](https://steemit.com/homesteading/@greenacrehome/outdoor-kitchen-build-part-1-budget-design-and-construction-video) -- @greenacrehome #### ENERGY - RENEWABLES - SOLAR * [Solar Air Heating....What?
