I really don't have any right to say this because I haven't written any articles yet, but I'd say even if you write something and think to yourself "Well people will already know (most of) this already, so what's the point?", go ahead and publish it anyways. There will always be somebody who doesn't know about whatever you're writing about, and those who do know about it may learn something they didn't know, or they can offer suggestions and improvements. It can be a learning experience for everybody.

Yeah, the hard part is that writing a good article takes time, and the more time I spend doing something the more you start losing the focus and perspective. But now I'm learning to be less obsessive about these things and don't fear to stop writing/working on something for a while so I can keep my head cool...
