# The day has arrived that a Steemian has managed to receive 546 real human reads of his article:

Why did I miss this? There currently exists no tab on Steemit to show us which posts get the most human reads. I think this should change, very quickly. This is the key to understanding how viral content can be discovered and shared (both on Steemit and on mainstream social media, too.)

Right next to the Promoted Tab, a tab named **EYEBALLS** could be added that would indicate which articles got the most reads/views by actual humans. This would become a _very_ valuable tab! Think about it, you would no longer have to endlessly search on Steemit for content! It would be like the rest of modern-day social sites, that indicate virality. Imagine the beauty and sublime reads!

Today, I'm requesting that this feature be added to a tab so that in the future, we can find posts easily that are appealing both to Steemit users and to users outside of Steemit. Apparently, @wadepaterson's post received 546 human views, mainly because his topic was a viral subject on broader social media, as he shares all his posts on Twitter. The virality on Steemit should coincide with virality on other social media sites. When it doesn't match, there is a problem.

# I've never seen that many reads on _any_ post and I don't want to miss more like this in the future. 

Let's work together on this one, @timcliff, as you can see how missing viral content is a detriment both to this platform and to the readers on this platform. If there's something already in the works, let us know.

Congratulations to @wadepaterson for getting over 546 human eyeballs on your post. That's the most I've ever seen. If you've seen more, let us know.

## Any input from developers would be appreciated. As you can see, this is the value right here. This is what we all should be striving for: 546 real human views.

note: I think this solves the bot issue altogether since the eyeball count is not affected by bot activity. Please correct me if I'm wrong on this.

# Let's Make Steemit Great Again.
