Highlights of 2023 MySQL blogging journey

  • 100 MySQL blogs on nitty-witty.com

In 2023, I completed publishing 100th blog dedicated to MySQL. Keeping a quality content for more than 10 years along with work and personal commitments, it’s been a challenge. Need not to say, ChatGPT wasn’t around for majority of the times (it is still not the source for my articles).

  • Ranked one of the top MySQL blogs of 2023 (#8) on feedspot.

It was a pleasant moment when the nitty-witty.com, “Change Is Inevitable”, gained recognition and listed on the #8 spot as the list of top MySQL blogs of 2023 on Feedspot.

  • One MySQL blog a day challenge for a week

I spontaneously took one MySQL blog a day challenge in the mid year (July), it was a difficult challenge and I have written a detailed post about my learning.

Conclusion

As we step into 2024, the journey continues; I am sure my work place is going to make me meet interesting problems and my friends are going to create some. I invite you, the readers, to share your thoughts, topics or questions you would you like me to write about. If you want to start your blogging journey, I invite you to start here as well. Cheers to the MySQL community!
