I've spent the last hour reading some of these blogs, but I've got to say I'm most impressed with "3. New York venture capitalist Ed Sim looks at emerging software companies." Having managed and given birth to many software programmers, I found his advice and insight to be beneficial, profitable, and worth the read. I have bookmarked his web site and will be monitoring it weekly now.

Hello, 2william:

A very good question. Thanks for bringing it up.

The answer is, no, information in these 50 blogs does not necessarily apply to or fit with every business or business model.

The benefit of this list of blogs is that it offers a very wide cross section of businesses and marketing styles. I think the idea is to read through the blogs and find the business ideas or recommendations that either attract you the most, or best fit with your business interests or intentions.

That is the way it is with most business models and marketing mentors: you do some research to find "your style" of doing business, then you do additional research to find more information that is focused more keenly on the direction you want to go with your business.
