I'm late in announcing this here (on my own blog - the cobbler's children run barefoot, I know) but I've signed to write the new
Social Ventures blog over at
Forbes. I admire what
Forbes is doing in terms of bring in a variety of new voices, and I'm enjoying engaging a new audience there around social entrepreneurship, causes, philanthropy, nonprofits, social media, technology and the public commons. Yes, that's (intentionally) a very wide beat and I'm digging it immensely. Here are the first dozen Social Ventures columns - hope you become a regular reader.
