Think of how many bugs would be fixed if people did work instead of reading blog posts. A good, relevant book beats 100 isolated blog posts.



A book is a huge amount to write and will probably be outdated in a few years. Generally speaking, blogs probably have a lot more bang for the buck than most books. (Yes, there are exceptions and books/big reports have a certain "thunk factor" and perhaps outsized halo effect than blogs but I'm skeptical as someone who has done a bunch of both.)
