> I think you'd be able to blog about your work at Netflix, Google, Facebook, etc. Plenty of their employees do so. There’s two types of work-blog: the kind you have on your personal website - and the kind on the company’s own blog. Most companies prohibit what you can talk about on your own blog (rightfully so - competitive secrets, etc) but some companies like a Apple outright prohibit you talking about your work to others at all beyond generalities. Company-run blogs, for all their casual demeanour, are still ruled by management - and one’s blog articles become their copyright unless otherwise stipulated (as it’s a work stemming from your employment). When/if the company ceases to exist - so do your articles. I had my own blog on blogs.msdn.com when I was at Microsoft - I sometimes posted somewhat subversive articles (such as guides on how to tweak the appearance of components of Windows if you didn’t like the defaults using publicly available articles and documentation) - I was hoping it would still be online today but it seems most MSDN blogs that didn’t reach Raymond Chen-levels of popularity got axed when the “MSDN” brand was retired. Oh well...
