* Blogging
** Add bio/profile info as you feel comfortable, including links to GitHub, social media, etc.
** Blog Post Tips:
*** Use blog post titles that help a reader (or Google searcher) to know whether this is useful info to them
*** Include links: a blog should connect different resources and ideas through your experience and learning
*** Write in sections. Try to avoid a wall of text, with only a single paragraph. Consider using sub-headings, shorter paragraphs
*** Use formatting for source code.
** One good source of blog posts on open source and software development is [https://news.ycombinator.com Hacker News]. Some recent examples to look at for style:
