This week’s recommended reading from your friends at Blogenberg:

• Successful small business owners are a lot like the Roomba.
• An analyst has shown that how people use the web has changed dramatically: from satisfying appetites (i.e. searches for porn) to actively participating in community.
• Ever wonder what Facebook would be like in “real life.” Check out this video.
• Here’s a cool list of social media tools for youth sports teams.
• Microsoft will announce today that they are dropping Jerry Seinfeld from its latest ad campaign.
• With the recent release of its browswer, Chrome, Google is continuing an aggressive play to compete with the likes of Microsoft by prioritizing what it views as the future of personal computing: web-based software services (or “cloud computing“) and gaming.
• The new “PR” is Personal Relationships (or, how new media is transforming the power of communications).
• And, since football season is in full swing, Blogenberg found this article from the Freakonomics blog an interesting look into the salary patterns of different positions.
