			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><span style="background-color: #ffffff;">As if I didn&#8217;t have enough to read already, I&#8217;ve added a few new blogs into my Google Reader recently. Mostly focused on business and technology, but also one great new find on entrepreneurship.</span></p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t bookmarked (or subscribed to) the <a title="Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship" href="http://www.entrepreneurship.org/PolicyForum/Blog/">Policy Dialogue on Entrepreneurship</a>, here are three reasons to check it out:</p>
<ol>
<li>The focus is global. While much of what I read is looking at U.S. policies and activities, this blog covers the world. So recent posts have featured stats from the <a title="OECD" href="http://www.oecd.org/">OECD</a> and developments in <a title="Entrepreneurship in Egypt" href="http://www.entrepreneurship.org/PolicyForum/Blog/post/2009/11/19/Policymakers-in-Egypt-Launch-Global-Entrepreneurship-Week.aspx">Egypt</a>, <a title="Entrepreneurship in the Middle East" href="http://www.entrepreneurship.org/PolicyForum/Blog/post/2009/11/21/A-Renaissance-in-Entrepreneurship-Policy-in-the-Middle-East.aspx">the Middle East,</a> and <a title="Eastern Europe post" href="http://www.entrepreneurship.org/PolicyForum/Blog/post/2009/11/21/Central-and-Eastern-Europe-the-Transition-to-Entrepreneurial-Capitalism.aspx">Eastern Europe</a>.</li>
<li>A solid foundation is key. While there is always a temptation to jump right into <em>how </em>to do something, having the right policies in place to foster innovation matters. This blog focuses on the policy side. Not always fun, but fundamentally important.</li>
<li>The authors are smart, and they write well. Talking about why <a title="Why Global Entrepreneurship Week Matters" href="http://www.entrepreneurship.org/PolicyForum/Blog/post/2009/11/23/Why-Global-Entrepreneurship-Week-Matters.aspx">Global Entrepreneurship Week matters</a>, they write: <span style="background-color: #ffffff;"><em>It&#8217;s not just a collection of concurrent networking, ideas competitions, and mentoring events designed to spur young people to consider entrepreneurship. It&#8217;s also affirmation that upstream there is a larger pool of innovative entrepreneurs about to enter the world stage just when they&#8217;re needed most.</em></span></li>
</ol>
<p>This is good stuff.</p>
