What should you write about?

Something you can teach others! Here are some ideas:

  • Why do the <br> and <hr> elements (or any element) exist?
  • How to create a slideshow with the least amount of code?
  • What is the DOM? Why does it exist?
  • Check how browsers implement a specific property and compare it to the spec.
  • How a popular website implements their homepage (with suggestions for improvement)
  • How you would fix a popular website's faults (long load-time, invalid JS, etc...)
  • Take a popular demo and make it something else (or use it practically).
  • Make a summary of popular ideas around the web lately
