FoundRead.com – Om’s Latest Addition Starting a Biz

FoundRead.comFoundRead is a fresh addition to the GigaOM family, the tech empire headed by Om Malik. Malik envisions it to be a sort of ‘digital salon’ where conversations about starting a business, any business, are shared and analyzed by people who have been there and done it themselves.

The site takes the blog approach, but readers may participate by commenting and posting, anonymously or not. The content is divided into seven sections: Aces in which successful entrepreneurs are discussed, Fables which features tales of Job-like trials and tribulations and lessons learned, Edge the place to get tips and advice, Learn where you can learn from others, Om, this is the section for getting bits of wisdom and trivia from Mr. Malik himself, and finally there are Questions and Answers. Check it all out to get informed and keep up with the collective smarts of the biz tribe.

FoundRead.com In Their Own Words

“FoundREAD is a shared resource, where anyone can contribute, either through their posts, or experiences or comments. You can choose to contribute freely or anonymously. Just like a GPS system helps us drive through a maze of freeways, the founders and entrepreneurs help their peers navigate the twisted, confusing roads of company building.”

Why FoundRead.com It Might Be A Killer

GigaOM’s a popular and successful media outlet, so there’s little doubt that FoundRead will have any trouble becoming just as popular and successful as its sister sites. The tone is casual, witty, and informative. It’s very conversational and quick, so attention spans aren’t stretched impossibly.
