Tim Bray: Why Blogging is Good For Your Career
I already wrote it here, but today, I’m receiving some heavyweight help. Tim Bray, who works now for Sun Microsystems, just published an article called “It’s Not Dangerous.”
Not only it’s not dangerous to write a blog when you’re an employee, but it will boost your career — assuming that you’re reasonably competent.
And Tim Bray gives ten reasons why blogging is good for your career. Here are three of these reasons.
1. You have to get noticed to get promoted.
2. You have to get noticed to get hired.
10. It’s a lot harder to fire someone who has a public voice, because it will be noticed.
So what are you waiting for before starting a blog?
