Blogging

I have a little blog I made about technology things but I've never really blogged regularly, I just post every now and again. I'd like to change that and blog more regularly. The problem is I don't know what to blog about. My main areas of knowledge are technology, programming, mental health and a little bit of politics.

I was thinking of writing about mental health and also do diary style posts but I'm not sure if people would be interested. Does anyone have any ideas or tips?

Are you a developer? A blog about mental health and development? Ever suffered from burnout? How do you balance things and recharge?

Thank you. I'll have a think about topics like that.

I ended up getting my blog online. Got a few ideas for more content but I'm mainly doing it for interest and to have a place to post my CV.

Managed to get my blog up and running. Managed to get 1.9K uniques in the last 30 days so pretty happy with things in the short term.

Good stuff. Wait until Google decide that actually they don't want to link to information sites any more and would rather just ai summarise everything. I fear that will be the death of original content as no one will get views of clicks any more

My main goal is a way to get a job by showing what I know and I also have my CV on the site. Getting readers is great but I find the act of blogging helps me remember things which is just as important.
