Humble Achievement - Bootstrapper Ranks VC Cafe in Top 100 VC Blogs

Many entrepreneurs follow the VC Blogs for various reasons. Some want to get insights into the mind of a potential backer, others are interested in following trends or discovering new companies.

BootStrapper put together a list of the top 100 VC resources in various categories and I'm proud to report that Venture Capital Cafe made the list - check out number 81.

Not bad, considering that I can't dedicate the blog the time it deserves. Thanks for including me with such a significant group.

Some of my favorites, in no particular order:
  1. Infectious Greed Written by former hedge fund manager and now finance professor Paul Kedrosky, this blog covers a wide variety of issues from venture capital, stocks, and technology to gadgets and blogging.
  2. A VC Written by Fred Wilson of Union Square Ventures, this blog provides insight into the fields of emerging internet and media companies interspersed with Wilson’s thoughts on music and technology.
  3. Redeye VC Redeye VC is written by Josh Kopelman, founder of Half.com. In it, Josh discusses experiences and advice in the VC field.
  4. VentureBeat VentureBeat is a great source for all news relevant to the VC world.
  5. Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained is the blog of Jeremy Levine. It deals primarily with news affecting the venture capital world, especially in the technology sector.
  6. How to Change the World Guy Kawasaki gives practical advice for entrepreneurs who are just starting out or looking to expand.
  7. WayTooEarly WayTooEarly chronicles the process of working with venture companies in the very early stages of development.

Wow, this sounds awsome! Being in the same list of 100 blogs as Guy Kawasaki's "How to Change the World" is quite an achievement!
