…rather why I blog. This article is for people who are following me (rather my blogs) and/or planning to follow… I thought I would explain the purpose I blog which would help you have a better expectation/perspective set about content of my blog.
Knowing the purpose helps you determine the style and content that you see on the blog. So here is the purpose and some of the key attributes about my blogging
Purpose:
- Save (build a repository that can be accessed from anywhere) and
- Share (make my learning’s available for other’s looking for the same information)
whole of my learning’s as I grow.
My way of Blogging:
- save all my learning in my blog to the maximum possible extent
- format the blogs only if I have enough of time available
- some times I simply copy the vendor articles so that I share the topic as well as save content for my later searches
- more images, as they speak a lot about the issue/scenario at the hand
Benefits of Blogging: (for those who are yet planning to startup their blogging)
- sharing is caring, you help many others who are in the need of information you have
- a professional presentation of your attitude and abilities, giving rise to recognition
- a central repository of information that can be accessed from anywhere in the world
- no headaches of local information repositories (emails, e-docs, etc.,) and having them synchronized as you grow
- better safety of your content and low risk of loosing information
- it’s of course less expensive and you can also earn from it by various means like ads, etc.,
- ease of referring (searching) all your knowledge at one place
- also, you can have private blogs to secure your private content and yet accessible from anywhere you need
- further, you can take backup of your content anytime you need, JIC should there be an issue at the blogging service provider end
