Good writeup and valid points. I only take issue with one statement:
"Hey hotshot. How about less blogging and more work on your darn company?"
Oh, trolls.
They used to really get to me.
Seems to me that if you take the time to write an extensive defense of blogging (and don't get me wrong - it is well written, and chock-full of valid points), that perhaps yon troll did really get to you after all...
- jaf12duke 13y agoThey used to really to get to me. Now, they only kind of get to me. More like a mosquito bite than a bee sting in that it's annoying but not painful. However, once I looked past the snarkyness of his delivery, I had to admit his question was valid. And I've now had the conversation with other entrepreneurs who wonder if they should do more blogging on their startup blog or stick to product updates. This post is my answer.
- mathattack 13y agoI'd say it's poor form to feed the trolls, but nothing is wrong with eating them for motivation.
- GrinningFool 13y agoFair point. The difference between having been successfully trolled and having been successfully motivated.
- ckluis 13y agoFor the record - presentations are epic content and if you believe a link is a link is a link... seoslides.com can help you build presentations powered by wordpress with all the embed links (it has a presentation player) going back to your site. Keep up the good work. I've always loved your blog and candor. If I'm ever in the position to recruit a specific person - I plan on doing a love letter presentation based blog post begging them to join me : )
- johnjlocke 13y agoGreat article. I don't mark out for message board karma, I mark out for results. Carry on, good sir.
