my Feed reader come up with this post:
Blog once per week [about Perl].
Every week.
Every single week.
Ten lines is fine. It's going to take all we failures some effort to get into this, so there's no going to be restriction on post length. There's going to be no barrier for how badly written it is. None of us are good enough, and that isn't a problem. What matters is we try. What matters is that we make some fucking noise. Show off cool new toys you've found, or cool new toys you're writing, or even trying to write. Show off neat tricks you came up with. Talk about your failures, too, because then maybe the next guy who makes the same stupid mistake will find it on google and think "I'm so glad that guy didn't mind sharing his idiocy because he's saved me wasting half a day because I'm an idiot too." Tell the world that perl5 is alive. If you're a perl6 true believer tell the world how it's soon going to be christmas. Talk about the stuff that you love, the stuff that you hate, the stuff that excites you, the stuff that drives you insane. But MAKE SOME FUCKING NOISE because if enough of us do, the law of averages says there's going to be some of it that's well worth reading.
So, I've set up an alarm in my calendar and I'll try to do just that... Blogging and Perl: I had to do it... won't be pretty most likely, but not posting is even worse.
What about you?
