It’s why I always work hard to find images for my blog posts & why all of my keynote presentations are visual rather than bullet points with words. When I write a blog post I often see the words before I write them. I have a process I use for blog posts, too. I look carefully at who is speaking before me.

When you read a thought leadership blog post from a VC – is it actually advice for founders… or is it to establish expertise so LPs keep giving them more money? Don’t take their advice too seriously, and don’t take it personally if they don’t invest in you – there’s an unseen set of stakeholders at play.

There are two schools of thought on blogging frequency: high frequency vs high quality. Today social media (twitter, hacker news) generates most of the traffic for a blog by bubbling up the best content. And I figure if I’m writing a blog post, I may as well publish it. Flights are also good times for blogging.
