In the dev blog world, people know who you are because you give good information and write great articles. Oddly, I only care about the content and what I learn from articles, not the actual person who writes them. If I learned something I'll come back for more.I have found recently (past 4-5 months) that the people I used to think were awesome are writing more fluff pieces that just don't matter to me anymore. Now, it seems like the people that are writing great content and tutorials are the ones no one knows about (or at least very few).Telling people how to become famous just encourages more crap content. Thank god for Netvibes and twitter....now I can scan for the good stuff and ignore the fluff. If you are trying to become famous, you’re doing it wrong.
