I'm sharing a little knowledge back to the community, your thoughts?

5 points| xtrycatchx | 15 years ago | reply

I'm a Java/JEE practitioner and in my own little ways I'm writing a blog (though it's limited to what i knew) to share my little knowledge back to the community. DO you think this is a good approach? Well honestly one of the purpose (aside from sharing back to the community my small knowledge) is to have feedback from other Java-related or any programming practitioners. This way, I'll be able to learn from the community too. What do you guys think?

If you want to blog, blog. If people like it, they'll read it; if not, they won't.

Not sure where you're going with "do you think this is a good approach?" unless you're trying to advertise.

Also, you seem to have posted the exact same thing yesterday:

...and you've been posting links to your blog for weeks now. One mention of your blog is quite enough, thank you. If you add some interesting content that people find useful, your readership will improve.

if people know it, they'll read it. otherwise, you are wasting your time if your primary goal to share the knowledge with other people and not keeping notes to yourself.
