Hi everyone,
We've lost track of the total number of articles, podcast and blog posts we've featured in our newsletter. We see the prolific bloggers who constantly have new posts. We've seen established podcasts take a long hiatus and pop back up with new episodes. And then there are the new ones that we feature, and it's always nice to see them grow and thrive, in the same manner that our readership has grown over the years. We do hope you continue to support us as well as the many people who have taken the time to write, share and post their content for the community. Many thanks to the people who have sent in their articles for this week's newsletter.
If you have an article, tutorial or podcast that you would like to be featured in our newsletter, feel free to reach out to us at [email protected].
Do follow us on our social media channels on Twitter and Facebook. You can connect with me on LinkedIn:

All the best,
Adrian
