Ten reasons why blogging is good for your career
Blogging as written communication practice
Ten reasons why blogging is good for you career by Tim Bray. This list is the result of a common sense author. Not out of the track and not totally conservative. The points are clear and make sense to me.
I have been particularly attracted by the point 4:
"No matter how great you are, your career depends on communicating. The way to get better at anything, including communication, is by practicing. Blogging is good practice."
It's the exact reason why I started blogging. I wanted to practice my English communication skills. The more I blogged, the more I discovered the importance of writing communication. I saw the power that some bloggers got with their only little webpage, their blog.
People, without any connection with the writing communication world, with their off-track education, had been able to be read, days after days, by thousands of people around the world. More than this, their voices are listened, appreciated, and accepted.
They got the point. They practiced and mastered the art of writing communication over the Internet. They practiced with their blogs and they are now part of talk shows and conferences. They practiced and they mastered; they worked. It's probably the key word in this post: working and keep working.
