I've written previously on how your resume is meaningless, on building career security, not job security and on the rise of personal branding. To summarize the overarching themes of those three posts quickly:
Your work should be working for you, building your reputation, not locked away in a resume.
A resume proves nothing, a living case study proves everything.
Creating a name for yourself in your industry provides you the ultimate freedom: career security.

Building your personal network enables incredible connections with the world around you not previously possible.
A blog is the ideal avenue to accomplish all of this and so much more.
