I am driven by a passion for technology. I am a big fan of Agile methodology and I have a thirst for learning and constant development. I believe that it is a must to follow new trends and innovations in the software world, therefore I prepared a list of top software development blogs in 2017.

Top 30 Software Development Blogs in 2017

Last week, Trent Innes, MD of Xero Australia, spoke to The Huffington Post about data trends that point to the fact big business is putting the squeeze on small business; what is being done around the world to tackle the issue; and how more can be done to support small businesses in Australia.
