AWS Blog, Now on Beta!

AWS!!! (read as: A~WS!!!)

According to Sir Maui, this is the reaction he usually gets when he tells his friends that ADTX has already changed its name, proving that the company is indeed famous because everybody already knows what the new name is.

It definitely is an old joke, because it has been over a year since the company adopted AWS as its name. And it is a joke that only an AWS employee can concoct and probably understand. Lastly, it is a joke that would require participation... I mean, you'll have to force yourself to give out a laugh to please the joker(hehe).

While the joke is old, the reaction may not be. If you're an AWS employee, the title of this post might have elicited the same reaction or one of the many variations of it like OOOWWS, WEEEH, WIIII, MOOOO, etc.

But it's no joke. AWS indeed has a blog! It was launched last October 1 (although you'll find articles written prior to the date). According to its creator/administrator, it is "a blog site for AWS people to share and discuss ideas, projects, photos and create a virtual community focusing on topics and trends pertaining to the I.T. professional.   It encourages change and improvements and would welcome feedbacks to enhance it."

So, are you interested on what the AWS Blog has? Then visit it and leave a few comments if you care. The name of the blog is Dinozilla (click on the link to visit the blog). It is being hosted by Wordpress on its beta version and just a few days after its launch, it has but a few posts (it has only three as of this time). But if you are an AWS employee, maybe you can help by contributing some articles. I think the blog is open for it, just don't ask me how because I don't know as well.

The previous company I worked with also had a blog. I was even a contributor when I was still there. Now, however, the blog is no longer being updated. I do hope that the AWS blog wouldn't share the same fate.

Very well, good luck to the AWS blog and to its bloggers! Hope to read more articles in the coming days, weeks and months!
