I love when my readers do the footwork for me and send me links to articles that they think I will enjoy. Readers also send me articles that they suspect will enrage me. I fear that I’m most entertaining when I’m enraged. Here’s the selection from last week:

Amy sent two articles about Who Really Cares by Aurthur C. Brooks. This new book finds that conservatives give more to charity than liberals.

Jeremy forwarded a link to Virginia Postrel’s article on chain stores in the Atlantic.

Thinking back to our discussion about video cameras in the classroom, Kip pointed me to this article about a teacher who got burned by YouTube.

Thanks, guys for the tips. In between prepping my lectures for an upcoming class on media and new media, I found all sorts of goodies in the blogosphere today:

Ethan Zuckerman has an excellent post on Cass Sunstein’s new book, Infotopia: How Many Minds Produce Knowledge.

Where’s the line in modern traditional/on-line media? Have we crossed the line with last week’s viewings of a panty-less Britney Spears? Where is the “yuck line”?

Bloggers make a buck and lose street cred.

What motivates reporters?
