The Developer Evangelist handbook is out!

Alright, after writing on it for four evenings and on one flight in between watching Watchmen and “The Boat that rocked” I am proud to present you:

• “The Developer Evangelist handbook”:http://developer-evangelism.com

The handbook explains several things:

• What developer evangelism is
• What makes a good developer evangelist
• How to write for the web
• How to use social media and the web to promote content
• How to deliver great presentations
• How to deal with criticism of your company and what to do with the competition
• How to write easy to understand and useful code examples

The handbook is Creative Commons and free to use. I am working on getting a printed version out, too.

Here are shortcuts to the chapters:
