wall_street Dear entrepreneur,

Now that I have your attention, I want to recommend an hour's worth of reading to you.

To improve your awareness of what's important in building and running a business read the informative posts listed below from a new blog.

The blog is by the co-founder of a company sold for US$4.2 billion in 1998 and another with a market capitalisation of US$1 billion.

Now, in case you are thirty-something or younger let me restate that you should also read business books. They can be borrowed from a place called a "library".

However, whatever your age, for brevity and street smarts modulated by hard won experience, little beats the gems from Andreessen.

Personal plug: I wrote extensively on Netscape, and Andreessen role in it in Mozilla: An Intellectual Property Monster Story.

One of his latest ventures is Ning. To quote him from his blog post on 18 June 2007: "My specific experience is from three companies I have co-founded: Netscape, sold to America Online in 1998 for US$4.2 billion; Opsware (formerly Loudcloud), a public software company with an approximately US$1 billion market cap; and now Ning, a new, private consumer Internet company."

I'll sign off now.

Regards
