How many discoveries were lost because they weren’t written down? We’re launching a Blogathon to get people writing! Share your work and have it read by hundreds (if not thousands!) of people.
﻿
🐝 Why participate?The top advice I would give my younger self would be to start blogging sooner. 
- “Why you (yes, you) should blog" by Rachel Thomas, co-founder of fast.ai.We hope this is just the final push you need to start writing. If you need some more convincing, when you blog you get to:
Show off your research or a technique you’re excited about.
Grow your skills. Writing things down helps you to organize what you’ve learned, which often lets you uncover gaps in your knowledge.
Meet like-minded people and grow your network. Join a friendly community of machine learning practitioners, helping one another learn about all things Machine Learning and MLOps. 
If you share posts about your work on social media, we’ll amplify your work there. We also publish the best submissions on our blog, Fully Connected. 
We’ll be giving out prizes including GPU credits and W&B merch. We want to encourage high-quality work as much as we can so we’ll reward submissions based on practicality, creativity, clarity, and usefulness for the W&B community.
❓How to participate? Write a blog post with more than 1000 words on any topic related to machine learning or MLOps. We’re trying to build the best tools for ML practitioners so the W&B community especially enjoys posts about or using W&B.

Here are some topics that typically get a great response from our community:
Showcasing a project you’ve worked on
An explanation of a research paper (ideally with some public code you can share!)
The content you would have liked to exist when you were learning machine learning
Tutorials on how to use two tools together (e.g. how to use W&B with Sagemaker)
Tutorials on a research domain (e.g. W&B for semantic segmentation)
Sharing a useful W&B tip that you’ve found
All submissions should use W&B Reports. Click this link or go to our blog, Fully Connected, and click the "WRITE POST" button at the top of the page to create your own W&B Report and start writing. 
You should receive a link to your Report when you've submitted in case you want to edit it 
💡

Don’t plagiarize, we’ll be checking each submission. 
⌚Timeline Don’t be a perfectionist. To encourage you to just begin writing, the blogathon will run for a period of 2 weeks starting on 1st June and ending on 14th June. We'll be showcasing the best submissions throughout. We cannot wait to see what you create !
