Blogosphere in Review: Week ending August 29, 2008

Links to stories, articles, blogs that I recommend from the last week …

• Facebook hits 100 million users (also InsideFacebook’s comments)
  
• “Born Digital” - a book I want to read!
• Electronic Arts walks on water - Users report glitch in new Tiger Woods game, EA plays smart with funny video response
• “Socialization of your personal brand” - from last week, but I missed it
• Browser statistics - stolen from @jameskm03
• 10 Great Web Apps for Students - also stolen from @jameskm03
• .eduguru’s weekly link review - read it for his thoughts & links on GoogleSuggest
• Facebook’s new engagement advertising (also InsideFacebook’s review on the 3 ad classes)
• Schools turn to Facebook ads to recruit students (also my recent Facebook Ad tips)
• 82% of phone users don’t text message
• Smartphone applications: Build for the web
• If you build it, they will come - usually wrong, and definitely wrong for Google Lively apparently

Also, I pulled together my recommended higher ed related blogs for Ken Steele earlier this week - here’s the list, if you are looking for more reading.
