| I totally get it, but I blog[0], too. > I don't have anything interesting to say The main reason I blog is to improve my writing. Because I've been blogging for about 10 years, I have a record of how it's changed over time. I'd like to think that it's gotten better, but I have no feedback on that. Most of what I blog about is whatever game I've finished playing. I usually end up collaborating what others have said, but I'll add in a few notes or grievances that stand out to me that I haven't found anyone else talking about. When I read an old post, I'll come across those little things and I remember exactly what I was thinking about and why I wrote that. > I'm not a good programmer Me neither. I'm not some demigod like John Carmack. I'm an everyday programmer working the web mines. When I'm not blogging about games, I sometimes blog about some nifty feature I implemented[1] or novel way of solving a problem that I wanted to take note of. > I don't think it's good CV building I'm 99% certain that no one has read my blog and wanted to hire me because of it. I guess that's a long-winded way of saying that I write and blog for myself. I use it more like a personal journal instead of groundbreaking thoughts that I want everyone to read.
