Update: I’m sorry to say I deleted my Facebook page. This New York Times article explains why: Facebook doesn’t notify my followers when I post something. Only some of them.
Quality Coding now has a Facebook page!
I remember when blogs didn’t have comments. If you wanted to comment on someone’s post, you did so on your own blog. It worked surprisingly well. Community was created through “blogrolls” — lists of blogs in the sidebar.
Now all blogging systems have integrated comments. But because comments are tied to a particular blog post, it forces you to talk about what I write. And that’s not good enough. I want a place where you can initiate a topic, or share a thought, for everyone else in the Quality Coding community.
That’s where the new Facebook page comes in. It shifts my role from author to curator. It also shifts to shorter thoughts — things that are too short for blog posts but still helpful. Or at least funny. Jump in, and we’ll all benefit as we help each other “build quality in.”
So head on over and give it a “Like”!
