Many of the top investors in the tech industry are also prolific bloggers, offering their insights on investment and technology trends. So if you’re looking for a list of the best – or at least the most trafficked, then you’re in luck. As Marshall Kirkpatrick noted in a story about what the best-of-the-blogging venture capitalists love, VC Larry Cheng has posted his 4th annual Venture Capitalist Blog Index.
The index ranks the top blogs written by venture capitalists, using data from Compete and the blogs’ average monthly uniques from the fourth quarter of 2010.
The list contains a few changes from last year’s list, most notably perhaps, with Y Combinator‘s Paul Graham taking the top spot from Fred Wilson of Union Square Ventures. Guy Kawasaki, last year’s number 2, has been removed from the last as he’s no longer an active VC.
You can subscribe to the top 15 blogs through Google Reader with this bundle: Top 15 VC Blogs.
