Entrepreneurial Blogs

Wow! Someone not only reads all the entrepreneurial blogs out there, but they've ranked and posted a list of '100 Daily Must-Reads for Entrepreneurs'. I didn't know that this blog is on the list until someone googling me found it. I'm hugely thrilled. I started this blog as a way to capture my thoughts on the human aspect of entrepreneurship and share with whoever might find it useful - and have done very little to market it. So I'm not only amazed that it was found, but that it was found worthy of a 'must-read'. It's awesome that it reinforces the 'connect' part of why I do anything - including writing this blog.

The blogs listed are definitely worth looking into - there's something for everyone, especially if you're looking for 'how-to' ideas. There's never a better time to be an entrepreneur - the Internet's awash with mentors, guides, seers and sages and ignorance is no longer a plausible excuse.

By the way, I was corresponding with a Stanford student who's currently traveling in China, and he mentioned that this blog is blocked there. I'm guessing there was some kind of mistake, because honestly, unless you're suspicious of entrepreneurship in general, there's absolutely nothing objectionable in this blog - it's the online equivalent of vanilla custard, served just slightly chilled. A bizarre little side note - wonder if it adds some edgy cachet?

Lastly, this blog is not an easy thing to write, not just because I'm very busy and my mindshare is otherwise spoken for, but because it's sometimes hard to pick which of the dozen ideas deserves a post. So dear reader, you're here because you're interested in entrepreneurship of some sort or the other - most likely, you'll be blogging about your venture some day - so feel free to post a comment on what you'd like to read about. This is the one thing you can do as an entrepreneur with absolutely no risk whatsoever.
