Nope - I just wrote this this evening. Perhaps someone else had similar ideas.

There's also http://kennethreitz.org/why-i-left-medium/

Not on Medium but relevant to this discussion.

That's either hilarious (or depressing) that people can't even tell the content of your posts apart (probably because its all so generic.)

Is it telling that I've not been able to find any narrative writing on your github pages, but I found your medium article just fine?

Perhaps non-exclusive rights to your work, in exchange for discoverability, is fair trade.

And perhaps I need to learn more about github pages.

You likely can't find any narrative writing because I don't publicize it. It's at stories.wegnerdesign.com . However, the same principles apply to my tech blog. I spend a lot of time on those posts, and I don't want anyone else to have rights to it.

As far as the worth of exclusive rights, I suppose it is personal opinion, but I still disagree. Especially when exclusive rights are so easy to come by.

Is it possible you're misunderstanding exclusive / non-exclusive rights? Non-exclusive is better for you. Terms that required exclusive rights would restrict you from "licensing" your content to someone else, or even publishing it on your own.

I apologize - wrote that from my phone at 1AM - I did mean to say non-exclusive rights :)
