Is Niche Blogging Killing ... Blogging?
"Interesting point, Murray. Niche blogging is certainly only one approach but I think the way it fits with the Google search model of keywords by topic has probably made it the prevalent approach to blogging up until now. However, there's a new kid in town and there's every reason to believe that social media, with its focus on individuals and their connections, may shift the focus toward a more community oriented and individualistic style in the future. "How A Blog Can Improve Your Business...And Your Sex Life?
"OMG What a great post on business blogging, Blackhat! And I really love the title. Penelope is a trip and I always get a kick out of her writing. But this one's a real evergreen and I hope everyone serious about business blogging takes the time read it. "How to Use LinkedIn to Find Customers
"I used LinkedIn before I used Facebook or Twitter and, when I started my first business, I got my first client there. I think some changes particularly in the groups section have made it a bit less effective for this though. Although, I think the Twitter-like update function has ended up making the profiles more effective if marketing is your goal."20 Nutty Business Startups That Made Millions
"I personally love the "Geese Police." Also, there's a link at the bottom of this article which I didn't realize until looking through it a second time which runs down all 20 of these businesses on the Forbes Website, AND some of them really didn't take that much money to start, so these really aren't capital intensive ventures."Is the Internet Boom Still Exploding?
"Interesting post. Maybe the most relevant question is what form technological entrepreneurship will take next. It's interesting how few people seem to connect the current explosion of the Web or Internet and collaborative technology with the huge upheaval in the economy. Perhaps, instead of looking for a bubble that may burst we should be looking for the shape of a new economy to come. "Anti Social Media
"Greg, An interesting and often raised question, but I think a more important question might be what kind of relationships is social media enabling that could never have happened or would have been unlikely to happen before? For example, currently you live in Ireland and I live in the United States. How likely would it have been for us to strike up an easy relationship before social media? Yet, it is a relationship we both find beneficial. Are more people using social media to avoid communication through potentially less efficient communications or are they using it to leverage communication that would never have occurred without those newer forms? In our case, a face to face would require an airline ticket and some lost days and a phone conversation, except through Skype, would be costly. Would we both still consider the relationship worth it? "Angel Capital and Small Businesses: Less Money, More Companies
"Hi Maria, Looks like it's definitely time to look for alternatives when it comes to business investment, especially during startup. Not really a surprise and good practice for entrepreneurs anyway as far as building a sustainable business model. Thanks for sharing."Subscribe

Keyword Research Service – Best Served Hot
"Great post on the importance of keyword trends, Dan. And a good reminder for any small business owner who markets online (I guess that's just about all of them now) how very important those trends can be. I also think it's important to note that SEO now must go a bit beyond the world of Google algorithms into the world of social media where tools like Topsy can be very valuable in testing trends (in this case on Twitter.) Any other tool recommendations for social media trend measurement? "
