It probably doesn't hurt to have a place for us to nerd out and not have to worry about writing for a general audience. It seems that occasionally having some sort of "best of the techblog"-type summary posting on the main blog would be a good thing to do, but that means someone would have to decide what "best" is, and then write about it, so it's probably not something that will happen soon.
The
... main blog is Jay Walsh and the comcom's thing. The tech blog runs independently of him.
If there's something on the tech blog that you think warrants wider reading, pinging Jay's office is probably the first thing to do, for a paragraph linking to the tech blog post. Anyone feeling inspired can do this. Or, indeed, suggest a main blog post.
(Personally I think the main blog should have posts much more frequently, but it's not mine ;-)
