Business blogs

I used to read the Business Thinker’s Trends Digest religiously every week. The author read seemingly hundreds of business publications each week and wrote summaries of some of the most interesting articles. Then the author moved the Digest to be part of her PR firm’s Web site, then stopped maintaining it regularly (it was last updated in March). Combined with a lack of an RSS feed, and I simply don’t keep track of it any more.

I’ve been looking for a decent blog that links to business news and trends, and haven’t found much. I came across A Penny For… today, and its interesting, but I want more. Up2Speed looks promising. Anyone know of some good business and marketing blogs?

Fast Company has a blog. http://blog.fastcompany.com/

And I know that another major business publication has a blog in the works. I forgot to ask the person who told me about it if it was a secret, so I can’t say which publication yet.

What business blogs do you read?

I think bBlog: The sales, marketing and business weblog | XPLANE is a pretty nice blog. Their updates are getting a bit less frequent, nevertheless it’s still a nice resource (linkdump). Have a look at http://xplane.com/bblog/.

Well written, great stuff, focused on VC, but worth reading.

The BostonWorks.com HR blog (http://bostonworks.boston.com/blog/hr/) has a short entry on corporate blogging which quotes from a Boston Globe article (archived article costs money to read): http://bostonworks.boston.com/blog/hr/20030601hrblog.shtml#105637792141173320
