This is a short description of your blog post. It can be one sentence or it can be really long and detailed. You should use this space to provide some insight into the topic of the post, which will encourage people to keep reading. It should start off broad and then narrow in on a specific point.

The introduction is the most important part of any blog post. If you can’t hook readers with the first few words, they’re not going to keep reading. The key is to write an engaging introduction that makes them want to learn more about what you have to say.

This is the body of your first post. You can edit, move or delete it.

How to do something people want.

You can’t get anywhere by working on stuff that doesn’t matter to anyone. And no amount of technology can make something people want out of something that doesn’t.

The best way to find out if people want something is to try selling it to them. I think this is the kind of insight that only becomes straightforward in retrospect. When you hear it, it seems so obvious you wonder why no one ever said it before. But if you tried to write down a list of principles for how startups should work before the web existed, they would all have been things like “hire good programmers” and “make a fast application.” In retrospect those seem like such basic requirements as to be tautological: who would try to start a startup with mediocre programmers or a buggy app? But at the time there were lots of companies doing just that, and we had no systematic way of knowing they were wrong. It took someone trying the opposite- making an app with a distinct visual aesthetic and highly selective about who it accepted-to figure out that was what users wanted.

A very nice blogpost

Cement board has a lot of uses: it can be used as a tile backing board, an underlayment for flooring and countertops, and in exterior sheathing and siding applications. To get the most out of your cement board, you need to install it properly. Here are some tips that will help you to use it better.

Cement board is made by sandwiching portland cement between sheets of fiberglass mesh. This material is very hard and durable, but brittle at the same time. It can be cut with regular snips or a drywall saw, but it’s important that you don’t skip this step; if the cement board breaks while you’re installing it, you’ll have to start over again from the beginning.

You should also use special screws when installing cement board; regular drywall screws won’t work because they’re too soft. Get screws that are designed for cement board use; these will give you a better result than any other type of screw on the market.

If you don’t want to buy special screws for your project, there’s an alternative: you can use standard drywall screws, but make sure that they are 4 inches long and have sharp points. These will cut their way through the cement board without damaging

I am trying to get the tile to stick to concrete board. I have tried using thinset and latex modified mastic. Both of these seem to not have enough adhesion strength. The tile slips right off. Is there a stronger adhesive I should use?

Cement board is a combination of cement and reinforcing fibers formed into 4 foot by 8 foot sheets (1.2m x 2.4m) 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick (6 to 12 mm) that are typically used as a tile backing board. Cement board can be nailed or screwed to wood or steel studs to create a substrate for vertical tile and attached horizontally to plywood for tile floors, kitchen counters and backsplashes. It can be used on the exterior of buildings as a base for exterior plaster (stucco) systems and sometimes as the finish system itself.

Cement board adds impact resistance and strength to the wall surface as compared to water resistant gypsum boards. It provides a flat, uniform plane over which to apply tiles which reduces or eliminates the need for the additional step of embedding mesh in thinset mortar when tiling large surfaces such as shower walls.

Water resistant gypsum boards are made with fiberglass mats rather than paper; they do not require special seam tape or compound and are much more resistant to mold than standard drywall.[citation needed] They may be used behind ceramic tile in wet areas, but should not be considered waterproof. Water resistant gypsum board has an even greater
