This is all good advice except that (as you can see in these comments) I spell like a retarded gold fish and my ideas aren't really that interesting. I very much doubt I am alone in this.

First, not every blog post is going to be your greatest piece of work ever.

Second, if you don't have a single interesting idea, why are you starting a business? Hopefully your business or product is an interesting idea. Write about that!

I don't believe every entrepreneur should write. Sometimes those of us with the passion & ability tend to take things a little too far... Its almost impossible for me to write something decent that isn't essentially a heated op-ed piece that in turn gets me into trouble in some way. Not every entrepreneur is an even-tempered sensible person driven by logic and rationality. In fact, many are quite the opposite. A blog in these cases would only give them more opportunities to put their foot in their mouth and damage their reputation. In my opinion in some cases its important that some entrepreneurs deliberately stay away from blogging...
