Blog split

0  comments

This blog will be splitted into two blogs. Here (jensjaeger.com) I will keep posting technical stuff about developing web applications with Java, Scala, Ruby, Javascript and Playframework. Some other geeky stuff might come along. My new blog (jensjaeger.de) will be in german about business and investment. I also removed the german stuff from here and moved all the old german posts to jensjaeger.de. If you click on a link to a german post, you might be redirected to jensjaeger.de. If you speek german you're welcome to have a look at the all new jensjaeger.de. You might also want to follow my german Rss-feed or sign up for my shiny new newsletter.

Why two blogs?

When I started blogging I started in german. After some time I realized software development stuff is easier written in english. This is because allmost all resources are already in english and programming code has english keywords anyway. Then I switched to write blogposts in english. That was fine. But having two languages in one blog is kind of ugly. I never cared much until I decided to write more about business an investing topics. The problem with this topics is, some parts like tax or law stuff is really country specific. A lot of investment or business advise I can give works only in germany. So I makes perfectly sense to write those posts in german. This was the point I decided to split my blog into two and make this one english only.
