This has been on the stack of projects to get around to ever since we read the Mercury News article "VC partners open up with industry blogs" last September... and yesterday's SiliconBeat post ("VCs and blogs") spurred us to go ahead and actually launch this Ventureblogs blog...
Ventureblogs is just what it sounds like - pointers to blogs and posts by and about venture capitalists and entrepreneurs that provide insight into the venture building and venture funding adventure.
The point of all this is twofold - to have a central resource for ourselves and others to easily discover such blogs, but also to encourage more of them so that up-and-coming entrepreneurs can have a better "inside view" of the whole venture building process.
So a huge thank you to all of the bloggers listed!
Future posts will call attention to these and other newly found blogs as well as highlight especially insightful and useful posts. Check back again soon as we are just barely getting started...
