Dear Tech, Business, and Leadership Writers and Readers,
As the chief editor of ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications on Medium, one of my goals is to bring more business and leadership writers to Technology Hits publication to create collaboration and synergy among writers and readers of these exciting domains.
Recently, I posted an article about why I created a second profile on Medium and how I will support the growth of the Technology Hits publication on Medium. So, I won’t repeat the reasons as they are in the previous story, so you may check it from the attached post, which also includes my first curated collection from the new account.
Purpose of this Post
This post aims to bring to your attention some memorable and impactful stories from my curated business reading list, aiming to breathe new life into these narratives rich with valuable business lessons and insights. I hope you will enjoy these pieces as much as I did.
I invite all these writers to post their new business and leadership stories with technology flavor to the Technology Hits publication on Medium. I aim to make this publication as big as ILLUMINATION using my reading, editorial, and curation skills.
As a boost nominator for ILLUMINATION-Curated, I also plan to nominate some outstanding stories from this publication for Medium’s new boost program, which is still in beta and is expected to be bigger soon. I look forward to your contributions. You can learn more about the boost program in the attached story.
I plan to interview tech writers and introduce them to our growing community of writers, which is now over 24,000, to ignite collaboration. You may see some interview examples from the attached collection.
ILLUMINATION editors also create writer profiles and introduce them to our readers and subscribers. Here are a few recent examples.
Meet Thomas Allen Moon, Chosen Stories from Collection of Omni Essence, Meet Sneha Nagre, Meet Mr Sridhar Pai Tonse, Meet Zondra Dos Anjos, and Meet Ani Vals
You may contact me on Slack if you are interested in interviews or creating writer profiles for you.
Brief Introduction to Technology Hits
Technology Hits give voice to writers covering various aspects of technology, which I summarize below for new writers and readers.
You may write in these seven domains for your contributions.
Technical: Dive deep into the technical details, covering engineering, scientific insights, and intricate points. This domain is your playground for defining and elaborating on tech concepts, from the nuts and bolts to architecture, design, security, and operational processes. It’s where tech professionals share their expertise.
Philosophical: If you’re inclined to ponder the broader implications of technology, this domain welcomes contemplative discussions. Explore the ethical dimensions of AI and robotics, or delve into academic insights from philosophy courses that dissect technology’s profound impact.
Entertaining: Technology and entertainment collide in a lively realm. From gaming aficionados to social media content creators, this space celebrates how technology brings joy and amusement. Feel free to share your YouTube channels, podcasts, and stories that both entertain and educate.
Entrepreneurial: For entrepreneurs, innovators, and business leaders, this space is your digital playground. Dive into the strategies and blueprints for digital business ventures, dissect the economic and financial aspects of technology, and follow the trail of tech leaders reshaping the business world.
Artistic: Explore the captivating synergy of art and technology. Explore the digital realms of poetry, painting, and music, all fueled by technology. Share stories of how technology ignites artistic expression in various forms of design and creativity.
Personal: Your personal experiences with tech tools, devices, and services find a welcoming home here. Whether it’s your journey with smartphones, smartwatches, or the world of IoT gadgets, readers are eager to glean insights from your hands-on experiences.
Futuristic: For the forward-thinkers, inventors, and visionaries, this domain is your canvas. Paint a vivid picture of the tech-infused future you envisage, from groundbreaking solutions to addressing global challenges, or explore the transformative effects of technology on human life.
