I just can´t blog here about everything that might be of interest for Web Product Managers - Yes, I am not omniscient and only part-time blogging here Therefore here goes a list of blogs that recently catched my attention. They all write about for Web PMs relevant topics like User Experience Design, Social Media, Web Analytics, SEO, Online-Marketing and more. I thoroughly recommend to follow these blogs complementary to the product management blogs:

• louisgray.com - Silicon Valley Blog for Geeks

  Danger: Geek alert! For some reason the first thing I think after I hear the name “Louis Gray” is “Early Adopter”. If there is some cool new tool out there in the Social Media Sphere it will get reviewed by him - that is as sure as death and taxes! A good way to stay updated about brandnew trends directly from the Silicon Valley is to follow his RSS. Latest geekiness:
  Real-time Google Reader Shares to Twitter - There’s An App for That.

• avc.com - Musings of a VC in NYC

  In almost every interesting web start-up there will be the earlier or later a Venture Capitalist involved, so it is a good idea to try to understand how the VC´s think and why they do so. Cool post : Why I think RSS is alive and Well
