Like Ben said, you don't need to get ultra technical about something and it will also help that you define the audience you want to have (like other new grads).

For instance, one thing you can write about is about the why for the .NET and AngularJS combo, research about it and show the pros and cons your idea about sharing your experiences is also good material.
