Every software engineer should have a blog

Github pages didn't show up on my radar until recently, but it's extremely simple to setup a basic blog using Jekyll.

You get static hosting, a readable DNS name, ability to use a custom DNS domain name, Github interrogations, and syntax highlighting of code examples all for free.

I agree Github.io page hosting is great

It seems like a good idea. If every software engineer had a blog we'd all learn so much!

I agree. We all take advantage of online communities like StackOverflow but so few give back

Anyone know if the simple programmer course is any good?

I went thought it and found it very helpful in improving the quality of my blog.

that would be way too many perspectives to read about.

its not like the world is lacking personal blogs

too many personal blogs yes, but maybe more professional ones. And then those blogs feed sites like CodeProject.com to make it easier to arrogate and find the quality content.
