Scribd's tech blog

Our tech blog is published to tech.scribd.com. The
goal of the site is to share what we're up to as we build, design, and deploy
the technology that powers scribd.com.

Content Guidelines

The CONTRIBUTING document has some details on how to contribute to this
repository, but if you've contributed to a Jekyll-based site before, this
should all be fairly straight-forward.

The types of content published should generally be technology oriented, but
discussions about organization culture, collaboration, and process are welcome
so long as they pass the bar of: "would this be interesting to somebody we
would want to work with us?"
