Top 5 reasons to write a blog

September 12th, 2007 Posted in creativity

Here are my 5 top reasons why writing a blog is a good thing:

  1. It will force you to be more creative. The best way to practice writing is - to write. I guess it is possible to write a great book in the first try - but probably highly unlikely. Bonus: If you write in another language than your main language it will simultaneously make you practice your language skills.
  2. It forces you to be more open to your surroundings in order to find things to write about.
  3. It will motivate you to work with improving your skills. In order to write a great post about software technology you have to first write great software or to find a new angle on software development.
  4. It will be a backlog to your thinking.
  5. If you’re successfull you can earn some money using Google Adsense or similar. At least some people do.
