I am very pleased with the development and I really like the welcoming atmosphere and help of @AstonJ, author books @ferd. I really like the Journal functionality too.
I would like to describe the idea for implementation. It is microblogging based on reading a book. My example which I am develop right now. Now I am reading the book “Property-Based Testing with PropEr, Erlang, and Elixir” of The Pragmatic Programmers publisher and making notes to the Journal. It would be more correct if it was possible to make a personal microblog (journal) inside the Journal section of a certain book. Thus, readers can form microblog based on the material of the book and would contribute to improving own understanding, expanding (detailing) the author’s ideas, testing additional hypotheses, posting additional examples and illustrations of sometimes difficult topics to understand by that book reading.
My second idea. Within the functional programming language community, we have weekly book discussions using Discort. It would be great if the communities are aware of the opportunities that Devtalk offer. It would be correct if the readers of the books knew about such a possibility. To do this, in the mailing lists of publishers and on the pages of books, you need to place an information section about this possibility.
