Done. You might want to label your future posts as "This week in Julia: 
October 17th" or similar, the tweet just went out labeled "October 10", 
which people might not understand the significance of.

 This is an experiment.  I think it'd be really amazing to have weekly

 I first tried a post like this two weeks ago over on reddit and it was

 glean 
 a lot of this information from!), and I *really* don't expect folks who 
 are

 think it'd be great if other folks would help me keep it up-to-date.

Matt - 

If you're ok with it, I can add this to juliabloggers.com and it will 
automatically get tweeted out to the community.

Thanks,

Very cool!

Any chance of emitting a Tweet and/or Google+ entry when there are new 
items/updates?

Thanks!

That's very awesome, Tony.  Sorry I missed it!  I'll be sure to include it 
this week as an addendum.  Perhaps it deserves a NEWS.md entry, too?

Very nice, hope you keep this up.

You missed that Julia can now compile to a REPL with MSVC for the first 
time (https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/7761), I'm biased but I think 
that's a relatively big deal.
