[Qgis-user] Proposal for QGIS-related blog

[Victor Olaya]

Hi

Thanks for you replies!

I am aware of the QGIS planet, but the idea I had was a bit different.
It does not replace the aggregator, of course, it is just another
blog, but created by a group of people instead of just one, which
would allow to have a more homogeneous stlye (not just in terms of
appearance, as the aggregator can do, but in terms of approach,
quality, etc).

I have seen that idea in other fields, where several bloggers (in many
cases, having themselves very popular blogs that they keep on writing
in parallel) associate to create a new one.

Anyway, I have ideas for many posts and I would like to start this
kind of "QGIS cookbook" blog, so if anyone is intererested in joining,
just let me know.

And of course, please keep on writing in your blogs, you are all doing
an awesome work :-)

Best
Victor
