Great new blog I just found
I searched the forum for "-re: +blog" and "-re: +read" and surprisingly found no threads on good blogs. I know Evan had a thread in OOT, but I guess nothing ever made it over here.
Anyway, I just found this blog recently, and I'm really enjoying everything about it. Ask The Wizard Written by the guy who founded feedburner, it's a ton of information about starting and growing a business. Since I can't find another thread, here's a partial list of what else I subscribe to using Google Reader 38 Pitches Curt Schilling's blog, surprisingly good. Partial feed though, so you have to click through to actually read everything. Dids It's Dids Blog Maverick Mark Cuban's blog, he's really hung up on Google/Youtube lately, so don't expect to read much Mavericks stuff Deadspin Quickly becoming the most relevant place for funny sports commentary Marriott on the Move Bill Marriott's blog. Pretty cool that the CEO of a major old-school corporation blogs about the business. Unfortunately, like Schilling's, this is only a partial feed. Gilbert Arenas's NBA blog Probably the awesomest thing to ever happen in internet history. He's an idea: [ QUOTE ] I couldn’t even tell my friends about that, it was so small of a role. His role was so small I couldn’t even tell my friends. I couldn’t even brag. Yeah, my dad was on TV, he was a ref. I was like, “Look! That was him right there. Sorry. You missed it.” My dad was excited about the role, I guess he thought it was going to be bigger than it was. At the time we didn’t have TiVo back then so whatever we seen, that was it. We missed it. He was like, “That was me! Right there, in the black and white!” I was like, “Really? Grrrrreeeattt.” [/ QUOTE ] Redeye VC One of many good venture capital blogs recommended by ElD a while back. Paul Kedrosky's Infectious Greed As seen in scrub's recent post about GapMinder. Good site for lots of VC-type stuff. What Would Tyler Durden Do The only celebrity gossip site I can stand. That should cover a few. |

I second Cuban's blog.
He isn't afraid to take shots at anyone, and explains himself clearly and with good logic always. He is also an innovative/brilliant businessman. |

Re: Great new blog I just found
Cuban's blog is awesome, except sometimes he should really run it by his secretary. Typos, misspellings, etc. Not to mention his need to put a space before ending a sentence with a question mark. Huh ? So awkward.
Schilling's blog is my current favorite. I just realized that all but maybe 4 of feeds are sports blogs, and one of them is my friend's blog (mostly about education stuff). |

Re: Great new blog I just found
This is a blog I heard about on The World's Tech Podcast.
It's clearly biased, but I think, clearly interesting. Iraqi woman's blog since Aug 1, 2003: http://riverbendblog.blogspot.com/ |

Re: Great new blog I just found
I'm a movie nerd, so for film news I go to The Screen Grab on Nerve. There are a few boring posts once in a while, but the vast majority are funny and hilarious, and there's usually good YouTube links to the relevant stuff.
It's a good one for Google reader. |

Re: Great new blog I just found
Dumb Little Man is by far the most useful blog I have ever found.
Mostly articles that refernce other useful websites. I spent about 8 hours on the site the first time I stumbled on it. Click on the category button on the right side of the page to access the archives. |

Re: Great new blog I just found
I like to pimp my friends out when they have something I think is of high quality, and my friend just so happens to have a horror movie blog Horror's Not Dead that I think is high quality. Even though I am not big into horror movies I can still appreciate the time and effort he puts into the site.
He also writes a monthly DVD buying guide which is pretty well done. |

[/ QUOTE ] This has been my favorite blog by about a mile and a half since I found it a few weeks back. I really like the way Costolo writes. I emailed with him a couple times and he's really nice and clearly very bright. He's definitely someone I'd like to meet some time soon. It sounds like you'd also like http://ventureblog.com and maybe http://feld.com/blog. I have a shared feed from my google reader of all business/venture/tech news that I think is cool http://feeds.feedburner.com/EvansSha...InGoogleReader |

jma, I'm pretty sure blogspot pages have atom feeds automatically.
