Why?

So?

If you want to write the most authoritative blog post on some technical topic, why? Why be the best? Why that topic?

Write what you want to write about. In a year or two you can look back and revise/delete your old posts if you want. Do you think your favorite blogger's first post was amazing? Probably not.
