RE: Niel's Two Cents
Have you read Niel's two cents about java.blogs?
A few weeks ago I made the determination that only my java posts belong on java.blogs, so I modifed my javablogs configuration to point to my java-only RSS feed. I figured that other java.blog users really didn't care to read my posts about the Bucs, Christmas, etc... Well I am getting really tired of going to javablogs and reading a ton of posts that have nothing to do with java. I don't have anything against the authors or their posts. I just don't think they belong on java.blogs.
While I have modified and re-submitted my site with a Java-only category, I have to disagree with Neil. I enjoy good content and I could care less what it's about. I use Java Blogs as my aggregator away-from-home, and frankly - sometimes Java is kind of boring. I've found myself hitting my blogroll pretty often lately. I check java.blogs from work, and sometimes it's just not that interesting, so I go and check out the folks sites that I know are good. I say, give me all the goods, fellow Java developers/experts - just make it interesting and I'll be happy. When's the last time you read TSS? That's gotten a bit boring lately too.
I hope this doesn't offend anyone, as I'm just trying to inspire good content - myself included! =80)
