- Atoms Are the New Bits This story in Wired Magazine highlights a new kind of social network, the "getting work done" network. The article focuses on the changing nature of manufacturing and how a network of partners can work together to create physical products. A social network is utilized to create prototypes, crowd source designs, and make products through small production runs. Some of this model can be used in other industries. Any business in which information is core can be put to a social and partner network to add value and increase business revenue/productivity.
- Social Media and Mobile Internet Use "A new Pew Internet Project report reveals a decline in blogging among Millennials but a modest rise among adults ages 30 and older. Young adults continue to lead the way in other online avenues, however. Millennials are increasingly connecting to the internet wirelessly (81% have), and nearly three in four of those who go online use social networking sites. Teens do not use Twitter in large numbers, but high-school-age girls show the greatest enthusiasm for the application."
