That is a question that businesses who have been helped by you in the past can answer

You help me the most when you focus on startups/other tools that actually HELP me in what I do each day. Lots of startups don't - they're amusing, but they're not a big help. What startups out there are building business support tools - from individuals/freelancers to larger businesses - that work well and do interesting things? The more of these you highlight, the more value you have (for me, anyway).

You help businesses by keeping the video interviews of new stuff coming =) I have been introdused to many nice tools , like FriendFeed, through you Scoble.. keep up the good work

On a serious note, though, what is the easiest/best way to document one's plan for a new web-based startup? Have the domain and the germ of the idea but not much more

Tell them what you want to see from them! Be a responsive beta tester! Offer constructive criticism!

Keep us and other competitors/colleagues on our toes with great products, fluid communication, and a healthy dose of occasional rants on the tech industry! ;-)

Keep talking about the little companies, the ones that don't have a lot of publicity even though they deserve it -- for example, FriendFeed.

I second Val K's comment. Also, highlighting interesting uses for emerging technologies that weren't what the designers originally thought they would be used for.

Thanks Robert you are already doing a great job! Personally all the web 2.0 and 2010 developments are a little overwhelming. How can a non-programmer utilize all these tools for a new online project. Is there a resource (other than say elance) to step a business owner through the steps and connecting them with application developers?

Give feedback to each in terms of how you see them fit into your personal hopes for the future, your personal ideal. (I would keep myself to advising companies making things of use to me) You have more sense of the big picture than entrepreneurs because they must be focused on building a small piece of it.

Also, with regard to their "businesses": Let them know how good "PR" works. I very much like how Edwin Khodabakchian engages with others on FriendFeed for example. @feedly account is good too, but I like a little more depth. :)
