Blogger is a free blogging platform launched in 1999. It helped popularize blogging and was acquired by Google in 2003. Blogger allows users to create blogs for free expression as long as content follows Blogger's rules. Blogs can be used for opinions, stories, or links. To start a blog, users create an account and can then add text, photos, or videos. However, Blogger prohibits content like child pornography, hate speech, or copyright infringement and will enforce its policies by potentially disabling accounts or reporting illegal activities to authorities.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

This is a “how to" slideshare from Jeff Bennett
showing a basic tutorial on how to open an account
on Blogger.
No need to reinvent the wheel.
Creating Your Free Blog with Blogger
www.slideshare.net
9. Blogger has Rules
May people have rules about how to blog, but Blogger actually has
rules.
Blogger respects the users' ownership of and responsibility for the
content they choose to share. It is our belief that censoring this
content is contrary to a service that bases itself on freedom of
expression.
In order to uphold these values, there is a need to curb abuses that
threaten the ability to provide this service and the freedom of
expression it encourages. As a result, there are some boundaries on
the type of content that can be hosted with Blogger. The
boundaries they've defined are those that both comply with legal
requirements and that serve to enhance the service as a whole.
10. List of “dos/don’ts” from Blogger
Content Boundaries:
Our content policies play an important role in maintaining a positive experience for you, the users. Please respect these guidelines. From time to time, we may change our content
policies so please check back here. Also, please note that when applying the policies below, we may make exceptions based on artistic, educational, documentary, or scientific considerations
or where there are other substantial benefits to the public from not taking action on the content.
Adult Content: We do allow adult content on Blogger, including images or videos that contain nudity or sexual activity. But, please mark your blog as 'adult' in your Blogger settings.
Otherwise, we may put it behind a 'mature content' interstitial.
There are some exceptions to our adult content policy:
Do not use Blogger as a way to make money on adult content. For example, don't create blogs where a significant percentage of the content is ads or links to commercial porn sites.
No incest or bestiality content: We do not allow image, video or text content that depicts or encourages incest or bestiality.
Child safety: We have a zero tolerance policy towards content that exploits children. Some examples of this include:
Child pornography: We will terminate the accounts of any user we find publishing or distributing child pornography. We will also report that user to law enforcement.
Pedophilia: We do not allow content that encourages or promotes sexual attraction towards children. For example, do not create blogs with galleries of images of children where the
collection of images or text accompanying the images is sexually suggestive.
Hate Speech: We want you to use Blogger to express your opinions, even very controversial ones. But, don't cross the line by publishing hate speech. By this, we mean content that
promotes hate or violence towards groups based on race, ethnicity, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, or sexual orientation/gender identity. For example, don't write a
blog saying that members of Race X are criminals or advocating violence against followers of Religion Y.
Crude Content: Don't post content just to be shocking or graphic. For example, collections of close-up images of gunshot wounds or accident scenes without additional context or
commentary would violate this policy.
Violence: Don't threaten other people on your blog. For example, don't post death threats against another person or group of people and don't post content encouraging your readers
to take violent action against another person or group of people.
Copyright: It is our policy to respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement. More information about our copyright procedures can be found here. Also, please don't
provide links to sites where your readers can obtain unauthorized downloads of other people's content.
Personal and confidential information: It's not ok to publish another person's personal and confidential information. For example, don't post someone else's credit card
numbers, Social Security numbers, unlisted phone numbers, and driver's license numbers. Also, please keep in mind that in most cases, information that is already available elsewhere
on the Internet or in public records is not considered to be private or confidential under our policies.
Impersonating others: Please don't mislead or confuse readers by pretending to be someone else or pretending to represent an organization when you don't. We're not saying you
can't publish parody or satire - just avoid content that is likely to mislead readers about your true identity.
Illegal activities: Don't use Blogger to engage in illegal activities or to promote dangerous and illegal activities. For example, don't author a blog encouraging people to drink and
drive. Otherwise, we may delete your content. Also, in serious cases such as those involving the abuse of children, we may report you to the appropriate authorities.
Spam: Spam takes several forms in Blogger, all of which can result in deletion of your account or blog. Some examples include creating blogs designed to drive traffic to your site or to
move it up in search listings, posting comments on other people's blogs just to promote your site or product, and scraping existing content from other sources for the primary purpose
of generating revenue or other personal gains.
Malware and viruses: Do not create blogs that transmit viruses, cause pop-ups, attempt to install software without the reader's consent, or otherwise impact readers with malicious
code. This is strictly forbidden on Blogger.
11. Enforcement of Policy
No one likes to be the police in social media, but just
in case you have to Blogger has a way to enforce the
content policy:
If you encounter a blog that you believe violates our content policies, please report it to
them using the 'Flag Blog' link located at the top of each blog (Note: If the blog owner
has hidden this link, you can still report the blog by filling out this form).
Our team reviews these flags for policy violations. If the blog does not violate our
policies, we will not take any action against the blog or blog owner. If we find that a blog
does violate our content policies, we take one or more of the following actions based on
the severity of the violation:
Put the blog behind a 'mature content' interstitial
Put the blog behind an interstitial where only the blog author can access the content
Delete the blog
Disable the author's access to his/her Blogger account
Disable the author's access to his/her Google account
Report the user to law enforcement
12. Blogger in the News
Blogger doesn’t make the news as much as it
discusses the news and spreads opinions about the news.
You would be hard pressed to NOT find a news
organization not blogging.
13. Tips for Blogging, by Liz Borod Wright
1. Display your social media icons prominently toward the top of your website.
Make it as simple as possible for your blog readers to connect with you on various social media platforms. They shouldn’t have to hunt around to find your Twitter handle, but
should be able to click on a button and be taken right to your profile. Bonus points if your social media icons reflect the overall design or feel of your blog.
2. Every blog should have its own Facebook Page.
Even with Facebook’s new subscription feature, there’s still merit to giving your blog its own space on Facebook. It’s nice to be able to post a link every time you publish
something new, and not have to worry about annoying your friends. Plus, readers who don’t your name but know the name of your blog can search for it on Facebook. Show
your fans some love on your blog by using the Facebook social plugin, which makes it easy to convert readers to fans.
3. Generate traffic with StumbleUpon.
This “recommendation engine” serves as an alternate browser where users click through pages that their SU friends and SU itself have recommended. You can submit your own
blog posts into the system, but it works best if you also share them with your SU friends and accept their shares back. Like most social platforms, you need to have a strong
following to get good results. While people are still trying to figure out what makes SU content go viral, many bloggers have seen terrific, albeit fleeting, traffic spikes through
the service.
4. Import your RSS feed onto your LinkedIn profile using its Blog Link application.
As long as your blog somewhat pertains to your professional goals, you should be showcasing it on LinkedIn. List it as one of your three websites in your profile, where it will be
labeled “Blog.” However, by using the Blog Link application, your most recent posts will display right on your profile.
5. Pinterest is the hot new frontier for bloggers.
Pinterest is the cool new kid, and all of the bloggers are scrambling to establish a presence there. Pin your best photos onto themed boards with links to a relevant blog post.
Blogs with strong visual content, like fashion, food, design, crafts and travel, are a natural fit. Infographics will also do quite well. Don’t forget to add a Pinterest plugin (like the
Pinterest “Pin It” Button for WordPress users) to make it easy for your readers to share your content on their Pinterest boards.
6. Use link shorteners even when you don’t have to.
Twitter will now shorten your link for you, and the length of your link doesn’t matter on Facebook and Google+. But by using a link shortener like bit.ly, you will gain access to
metrics, so you’ll know how many people clicked and at what time. With this essential data, you can experiment with different ways to tease your content and different times to
post it.
7. Use your blog name as your username whenever possible.
Promote your personal brand by consistently using your blog’s name for your Twitter handle, StumbleUpon name, Pinterest name and so on. Then, people don’t have to
wonder about your blog’s name — it’s right there. Also, people will remember you easily across platforms, which is key as you develop up your online community.
8. Join blogger groups on Facebook.
There are some very active groups on Facebook that are terrific resources for any blogging issues you encounter. Look for groups like “Travel Bloggers” or “Global Bloggers
Network.” WordPress geeks have “Advanced WordPress” and Central Florida residents have “Central Florida Bloggers.” Not only are blogger groups good for problem-solving,
but it’s well-known that bloggers like to read other blogs. Do some searching and find a bloggers group that’s suited to you, or start your own!
9. Be generous with other bloggers.
Promote other bloggers’ content, and hopefully they’ll return the favor. You can’t simply blast your own content anyway — you need some variety in every social media stream.
So why not check out what your fellow bloggers are posting and give them a retweet, a share or a repin whenever you can. And don’t forget to reciprocate and share content
from bloggers who share yours.
10. Be on social media — even when it’s not driving traffic.
It can be frustrating when you feel that you’re doing everything right (posting good content on the appropriate platforms in the best way possible) and you’re still not getting
many clicks. But console yourself by thinking about all of the links that you see throughout the day that you don’t click on. Just spending time on social media platforms is
great way to forge relationships, keep up on industry news and find inspiration for that next blog post.
