It is getting time for summer reading. Here is some for bloggers. I am amused and pleased to see the new York Times take up blogs after the early criticism and resistance by some senior people on the NYT. Here is a useful blog on technology, Bits. It stands for business innovation technology and society. Recent posts include:
Google Goes Corporate, which talked about their recent acquisition of Postini, which “offers a service to help companies protect and control their e-mail , for $625 million in cash.” Now the title is a bit misleading as Google has been trying to go corporate for a number of years. I am sure that they will succeed on some level and making the right acquisitions will be key.
DealBook: Is LinkedIn Getting Ready for an I.P.O.?
MySpace TV, and the Salary Story – “the social network’s challenge to YouTube, a company it inadvertently helped emerge from the nursery when MySpace members began posting YouTube videos to their profile pages.” You can see the new home page for MySpace TV.

The Ad World According to Google – always a hot topic and they actually link away from the Times to Google’s explanation of why they are buying Double Click and a way to help you“understand how ads are bought and sold online, if you want to know the difference between a text-based contextual ad and a display ad, if you care to learn the difference between AdSense and an ad server, the post provides as good an explanation of the online advertising world – or at least Google’s version of it.” web 2.0 business blogs
