After a week attending to some client business, we’re back with this week’s recommended reading from your friends at Blogenberg…

• Anil Dash covers an interesting debate between Malcolm Gladwell and Wired’s Chris Anderson regarding the use of data and anecdotal evidence to support social and economic theories.
• The Council on Public Relations offers some advice on responding to RFPs in the way clients want.
• Steve Rubel is moving from blogging to “lifestreaming.” (Jeremiah Owyang covers the trend here.)
• PSFK asks its experts, The Purple List, what the future of journalism will look like. Some of the answers are typical, but there are some interesting and fresh insights there too.
• … as the AP continues to stumble its way through how its content is posted on social media platforms, this time by employees.
