What makes a good developer advocate with Chris Riley

 Trick question of the week:

How are developer relations different from developer advocates?

The role of the liaison between the company and the developer is not something new. Several titles have appeared since companies decided that engaging with developers can offer a competitive advantage. Early roles, that are still active today, were given titled "evangelist" or "advocate".

Is DevRel a natural evolution of the role with a different title or advocates and DevRel work together for a more complete approach? We're not going to spoil it for you. We'll let our guest Chris Riley walk us through this, what makes a good developer advocate and more. Chris has been long in the field and takes us through the evolution of the industry and what makes someone good at such a technical role.

Bonus: where can someone new to their Advocacy/DevRel role find resources on how to be more effective?

Tons of answers in one all-inclusive episode.
