It's not related but I wonder if starting a thread in the altcoin section of Bitcointalk would be useful from a PR and marketing POV something like

BitShares Founder - Ask me anything thread

You will probably get some negativity of course, but it could be a great place to inform, educate and make BitShares feel more accessible to the wider altcoin market

Nice post for beginners. Just curious have you considered integrating a comment section to your blog? Might be a good way to facilitate some additional discussion for readers that wouldn't bring it here to the forums because they lack an account or haven't been exposed to bitshares yet. Maybe not for this post necessarily but for some of the other more philosophical ones. Just a suggestion; the clean look and feel of it currently also has its merits.

This should be in bold:

I recomend backing up your wallet to one or more USB sticks

Nice and clear, should help newbies. I love the faucet too, good job @valzav!

I spotted a few typos, is there a way to correct stuff with github still on your blog?

Looks great!  +5%

On a separate note - could you please add a multi-language plugin like how Rick Falkvinge did it on http://falkvinge.net/.  In the top left there are all the different language versions of the site, the plugin lets users be set up with publishing rights for each language. He's got all those translations done for free by volunteers.  I don't know the blogging platform your using but hopefully it can be done without much difficulty. 

(thanks to fran2k for this idea).
