Food Blogs and Stock Blogs in the News

Posted on March 14, 2005

There has been some news coverage of food and stock blogs in the news. The SFGate.com has an article about the growing number of food-related blogs and how they are growing rapidly in number. SFGate writes:

If you want to see someone's grocery lists, there's a blog waiting for you; if it's recipes you're after, or a tip on the hottest new restaurant, there are hundreds. With the number of hardcore foodies living in the Bay Area, new food and wine blogs pop up constantly. Food blogs let people connect and share one another's cultures, even if they only live a mile apart.

The article also lists a few of food-related blogs in the Bay Area including 101 Cookbooks, Gastronomie, Meathenge and Vinography.

Crainsny.com discusses how former executives at major investment banks have started blogs which provide financial news. The Internet Stock Blog is run by David Jackson who was formerly a Morgan Stanley telecommunications analyst. Other blogs mentioned in the article include Burnham's Beat by venture capitalist Bill Burnham and Reflections on Equity Research, which is run by Stephen Castellano, a former telecommunications analyst.
