Blogging more is a great idea! Especially technical blogging. You might think there's a lot of content out there, but the percentage of developers that also write for people is small. I've had recruiters mention my blog [1] and Stack Overflow [2] when reaching out. I don't even post much, but I have a handful of technical posts and talks collected there, and I think being able to hand someone a compact "portfolio" of career capital like that is a nice touch. I feel the same way about answering questions on Stack Overflow by the way. To me every answer to a sufficiently complex question has the potential to be a mini blog post. Another benefit to you is that it shows that you know what you're talking about. There are a lot of topics that you know well, that your close friends know that you know well, but that strangers on the interwebs don't know you know well.
