blognation : technology from around the world...

If you're not from the bay area, you might wonder from time to time, "why aren't people talking about all the cool tech startups here?"

My friend Sam Sethi, the brains behind Vecosys (the leading tech blog in the UK), just launched blognation, which is a site bringing together a lot of fantastic bloggers that are now covering over 22 countries, and all the cool tech happenings in them. Cool bloggers like Ewan Spence, Amanda Lorenzani, Oliver Starr and Sam himself are contributing great articles and helping the rest of us see just what's happening in the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Japan, Canada... anywhere that isn't the bay area.

What's also pretty interesting is that Sam's not going after the whole "cult of personality" thing. His face isn't plastered around the blog, and he's not promoting himself as the gatekeeper ... which is pretty refreshing when I compare it to a lot of the other tech blogs out there.

So have a look at Blognation, and if you happen to blog a lot about tech wherever you happen to live, go ahead and reach out to Sam... it's early days for Blognation, and I'm sure they're looking for more fantastic writers.
