Sometimes startups need to consult wisdom of good blogs to get started off on the right foot. It's hard to choose just the right blogs to recommend, as there are many good ones about the startup life with all its challenges and whirlwinds.

This is not intended to a "Best List" of blogs--rather a well-rounded mix of advice and insights from some extremely bright and successful people who seem to be particularly grounded and caring.  

In no intentional order:

Blog: Startup Marketing Blog
Writer: Sean Ellis 
Representative Post: The Startup Pyramid

Blog: Startup Lessons Learned
Writer: Eric Ries
Representative Post: The Lean Startup

Blog: This is going to be BIG... 
Writer: Charlie O'Donnell
Representative Post: Why Blog?

Blog: Both Sides of the Table 
Writer: Mark Suster 
Representative post: What To Do About That Chip on Your Shoulder

Blog: Open Source Venture Capital

Representative Post: Naked

Bonus: Hiten Shah's (KISSMetrics) blog Hitenism is a treat. It consists mostly of Instagrams that remind us of what's most important in life.

As good blogs go, it's the best.
