With so many MOOC's about, the question "why should I read YOUR specific blog ?" still remains.

- Is it your CV (your portfolio to the outside world) ?

- Did you stumble/are stumbling across something that you didn't find many answers to ?

- Did you find a better path than the beaten one?

I've not found any of the above reasons, hence I've not blogged. Maybe I'm wrong.

The goal for this series os articles specifically is to provide yet another way for people to learn data science.

But what this series will offer when compared with other sources is my personal take on how I applied the techniques I learned in a real-world e-commerce business and how that drove innovation.

I also struggled when learning some of the lessons I'll share, because of how the information was spread, in this series of posts I'll try to put it together in a way that would have helped back them.

On my own blog, whenever I do a data science writeup, I make sure to do it on a topic that hasn't been done before, with explicit detail and open-sourced code.

...this has had the consequence of getting no pageviews since it removes the mystique of data science. :\
