John Saddington, blogger, entrepreneur, and software developer tells a compelling story on how systematic blogging has impacted his life, career, and businesses. He believes that every developer should be intentionally about the messaging around their own personal brand and that a blog can be done with as little as fifteen minutes a week.
In his own words, he called this presentation "A candid chat and conversation about how blogging has helped me build not just a personal brand but businesses... and why every developer should consider blogging to make them even more competitive."
