    I have been posting alot lately, my apologies! I just have a ton of questions right now.

    This may be a longshot, but I am just wondering if anyone knows of any Venture Capitalists or Investors that have a history of investing in blog type communities/websites.

    If you know of any, please post some links. Thanks!

    Check out the folks who have dumped millions into simple ideas from Digg.com founder Kevin Rose:

    http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/jul2007/tc2007079_099992.htm

    That would be a good place to start. The BusinessWeek article has links to all the investors they discuss in the article. I'm sure there are more examples, but you'd be better off searching Google for things "IT Venture Capitalists" or "Find investors for your web project" or "Web 2.0 Investors."

    But definitely start with that BusinessWeek article.
