The Unstrapp’d List of 30 Young Entrepreneurs of 2009

With 2009 com­ing to an end, blog­gers are look­ing back at the best of the best and show­ing their appre­ci­a­tion for every­thing that has been accom­plished in the year. I received an email this morn­ing from a pretty well respected guy, Bradley Will. Turns out, I was included in his list of the top 30 young entre­pre­neur blogs of 2009. Not a bad way to start my day.

But seri­ously, what wakes you up bet­ter in the morn­ing than receiv­ing news you have been awarded some­thing that a guy like Neil Patel or Zac John­son have been? I’m pretty hon­ored to be included in this list, and to me, it tells me that maybe I’m actu­ally mak­ing an impact in this world of young entrepreneurship.

This blog, even though it’s tar­geted for young entre­pre­neurs isn’t what I am most known for. You prob­a­bly know of my other blog, my much more active blog — Blo­gus­sion. That’s what you think of when you hear my name online I bet, and that is what blog rep­re­sented me as a top young entre­pre­neur in the list by Unstrapp’d.

So go ahead and check out that list. I found a lot of great blogs over there, and I guar­an­tee that if you read this blog, you will have an inter­est in the other blogs there as they are all ran by young entrepreneurs.

I just wanted to share this arti­cle with you guys. Stick around for The­sis Thurs­day on, you guess it — Thurs­day as well as a post where I want all of you guys to share your accom­plish­ments in 2009. Get your lists ready folks, see you Thursday!

Con­grat­u­la­tion I wish I would have been that forth sighted at your age, of course at that time there was no internet (:

I am won­der­ing when the youth from non Eng­lish speak­ing coun­tries, will start with some­thing like this? I speak a few lan­guages, but it is only in the Eng­lish speak­ing com­mu­nity you can find young blog­gers like you.

Hey con­grats on mak­ing that list, you’re in good com­pany. Now I’ve got some­thing else to strive for

Hey Alex,

I don’t want to take any­thing away from you get­ting the award, but have you con­sid­ered that they wrote the list sim­ply for link bait / traf­fic? Again the list includes good resources so it’s not like the aware was not some­thing you didn’t deserve (I believe you did).

But if you look at the arti­cle it has 10 times as many retweets as any other arti­cle on that blog and many more links as well.

Thoughts?

Hey Chris,

Isn’t that the pur­pose of every arti­cle? To bring in traf­fic to a blog?

But what­ever their inten­tion was — the arti­cle brought traf­fic and read­ers to MY site. :D That’s all I wor­ried about honestly!
