I’ve been doing tech posts at Techrepublic for a while. Before that, I’ve been a regular at experts-exchange. Nothing mattered more then than tech points and bragging rights.
For some reason, Techrepublic took out the Tech Q&A portion of the site. Sure, the questions are still there, intermingled with the forum discussions, but the Techpoints system are gone.
I went next to MSN spaces for my tech solace. The site’s cms was simple and effective, yet it underwent more changes than I am comfortable with. Plus, blogging about open source on a MS blogspace felt kind of weird.
I’ve been blogging here and there, but mostly personal. Recent developments in the blogosphere, and the resurgence of interesting technologies makes me want to go back to writing.
It’s like what they say: If at first you don’t succeed; call it version 1.0
