			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok, I know it&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve actually posted on this thing. There&#8217;s a good reason though.</p>
<p>We didn&#8217;t want to use <a href="http://mu.wordpress.org/">Wordpress Multi User</a> here because we only wanted one blog. We also wanted a static front page. So I actually put two installs of regular Wordpress on this site and used <a href="http://projects.radgeek.com/feedwordpress">Feed Wordpress</a> to link the two installs together, it was a process that my colleague <a href="http://www.jason-preston.com">Jason Preston</a> rightfully called &#8220;Byzantine.&#8221;</p>
<p>Well, now with WP 2.1, it&#8217;s easy to create a static front page with just ONE install of Wordpress. Hooray!</p>
<p>Another big issue with this blog is that editorially, it overlaps significantly with <a href="http://blogbusinesssummit.com">Blog Business Summit</a>. Both sites are meant to be places where we and our readers can explore/discuss relevant issues surrounding business blogging. I&#8217;ll probably spend more time here discussing social media and business in a larger context, like my <a href="http://blogbusinesssummit.com/2007/02/social_networks_1.htm">post today about social networks</a> that I wrote on BBS today.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First and foremost, welcome to the Parnassus Ventures blog! A lot of work went into getting this blog ready for launch and we&#8217;re very happy with it. There may be a few messes here and there as we finish up housecleaning, but by and large what you see is what you get.</p>
<p>Right now, the people of Parnassus Ventures are incredibly busy getting ready for our flagship event: the <a href="http://www.blogbusinesssummit.com">Blog Business Summit</a>. But that doesn&#8217;t mean we don&#8217;t have time for a few really interesting consulting projects. Currently in the works are:</p>
<ul>
<li>An RSS monitoring project for an up and coming art supplies manufacturer.</li>
<li>The launch of <a href="http://www.bigbusinessjet.com">Big Business Jet</a> our blog about business jet ownership which is sponsored by <a href="http://www.greenpnt.com">Greenpoint Technologies</a>.</li>
<li>A blogger qualification effort.</li>
</ul>
<p>We&#8217;ve also been busy figuring out what we&#8217;re going to blog about here. In the past, we&#8217;ve used the Blog Business Summit blog to talk about general topics of interest to the business community when it comes to the blogosphere. Soon, we&#8217;ll be using this blog to talk more about those topics, while the Blog Business Summit blog will be more about the conference. If you like Blog Business Summit, chances are you&#8217;ll also enjoy what we have to say here at Parnassus.</p>
