Do you read the Startup Journal?

April 20th, 2007 by Travis


If you don’t, today would be a good day to start. Sarah Needleman asked to interview us for the SJ a couple weeks ago and the article went live today. You can read “What Small-Biz Owners Can Learn From Blogs” here.

The other blogs featured were:

WorkHappy - “His two-year-old blog provides advice, ideas, inspiration and resources he’s accumulated through his own experience as a consultant to entrepreneurs and owner of four Web-based ventures.”

Franchise Pundit - “The blog, which is updated daily, also reports on emerging franchises, relevant legal news and various industry happenings.”

Escape from Cubicle Nation - “…she focuses her blog posts on the emotional aspect of leaving the corporate world to start a business.”

BizzBangBuzz - “He blogs about legal issues pertaining to entrepreneurs and says he often cites lessons he’s learned through his work.”

Venture Capital Cafe - “Mr. Vidra profiles early-stage ventures in his blog by describing their business models and products.”

Marketing Blog - “Mr. Cook blogs about the marketing strategies he advises his clients on and any topic that ’strikes a nerve,’ he says.”

Small Business Trends - “…focuses on major developments that affect small-business owners”

The Invent Blog - “Registered-patent attorney Stephen M. Nipper has made a hobby out of scouring the Internet for articles on the subject and related topics and summarizing what he finds on the blog.”

Guy Kawasaki’s How to Change the World - “One of the most well-known blogs in the small-business space, How to Change the World aims to do just as its namesake suggests via the art of ‘entrepreneurialism.’”

A great list if I may say so myself. A huge thanks to Sarah for including YGG.

    It was Darius who pointed it out. I am trained to just read “Travis” - but he enlightened me and I had to jump on the opportunity.

    Congrats YGG! Its seemed that things have really kicked off here whilst I’ve been galavanting across Europe…great stuff. Unfortunately I missed out as Sarah did email me asking if I wanted to be featured alongside you guys, but because my contact form wasn’t working, the mail went straight into my Webmail account, not to be seen for 2 weeks - bummer.

    Oh well, congrats again - for some reason I knew you were Travis Hines, dunno y!
