Guy Kawasaki’s Blog
Guy Kawasaki is just one of those guys (no pun intended) that every entrepreneur ought to follow. Not only is his writing style easy to read, but he is a thought leader in nearly all topics regarding business, and authored the immensely popular Art of the Start. Great blog posts, and rarely misses more than a few days.
Thomas Friedman’s Blog
Tom (yes, we are on a first-name basis) is one of the best Opinion journalists in the world…in my opinion, that is. He has written such books as The World is Flat and Hot, Flat, and Crowded. This is not necessarily a “blog,” so to speak, but rather a running list of his NY Times articles. I’m allowed to stretch the definition of the word “blog,” because after all, this is my blog.
Freakonomics Blog
The authors of the popular book Freakonomics keep a fantastic blog going, posting genuinely interesting tidbits sometimes multiple times a day. With plenty of links, and a plethora of guest writers, this blog is probably my favorite on the web. It is what I call a “binge surfer’s blog,” because you can start on the blog’s main page, and click on links to whatever you find interesting….then, five hours later, it hits you that you should probably take a break for a bit.
Under the Turban
Tim Urban is a fellow Newton North High School alum, and serial entrepreneur. Tim’s “15 minutes of fame,” if you will, was being on NBC’s hit show The Apprentice, and making it to the final 4 before hearing the famous Trump goodbye: “Tim, You’re Fired!” Tim runs a rapidly growing tutoring company based out of L.A. but currently expanding to NYC. In addition, Tim is an avid musician, and just recently completed his first studio album.
Nate Lustig’s Blog
Fellow Madison entrepreneur Nate Lustig keeps a solid blog going as the backbone of his consulting website. Nate gives his thoughts on current events, entrepreneurship, pop culture, and offers startup company reviews.
Bar Stool Sports Blog
Best Boston sports blog around. Hilarious pictures and articles that are just about as truly Boston as any blogger/journalist can get.
Lil’ Wayne’s Blog
What can I say about Lil’ Wayne, other than that he is the man? Behind the drugs, ego, and blatant disrespect for women, the law, and human life, the self-proclaimed World’s Best (and richest) Rapper is actually surprisingly intellectually equipped. This blog is hosted by ESPN, where Wayne gives his take on all things sports. If nothing else, it provides a good laugh.
