Business gossip
Pud,
Why isn't there a site that tracks business people and entrepreneurs as if they were movie stars?
I mean like the real dirt on business folks -- who they're dating, what they're eating or doing in their free time, etc. Like paparazzi/tabloid type stuff.
I think a lot of people would find this entertaining. Some people are political junkies, celebrity junkies, where's the site for the business junkies?

Mike,
That is an awesome idea. So good in fact, that I pitched almost the same thing to a magazine publisher many years ago. I was going to call the magazine "Dirt," make it really sensational, and write about business gossip, white collar crime, and so on.
I ended up not doing it (and writing my book instead..more $ and less work), but I still think it's a really great idea for a business blog.
Valleywag is almost exactly that (you can even read pud gossip), but limited to Silicon Valley gossip only. There's definitely room for a more mainstream version. Build it!

ps- if anyone knows any sites that already do this, leave them in the comments.
