You should only be creating custom solutions if this (blogging for instance) is your primary business. If you want to kick ass as a one-person team you have to know your limits and only spend time of things which are critical.
Nice suggestion re CDN.
- sliverstorm 15y agoYou should only be creating custom solutions if this (blogging for instance) is your primary business Even more specifically, only if existing tools do not meet or cannot be adapted to your needs!
- gridspy 15y agoI disagree. If something is core to your business you cannot outsource it. Google couldn't use someone else's search engine Microsoft couldn't use an outside kernel or filesystem for windows Gridspy has to make its own dashboards. However, We can use handy libraries for html templating and graph rendering.
- sliverstorm 15y agoBut a blogger (the given example) produces content. A blogging platform is core to their business, but it isn't what brings value. In Google's case, the search engine is what brings value. Don't let yourself get caught up in NIH syndrome.
