Here’s some of the stuff I thought was interesting while stomping through the Internet on Aug. 18 from 11:05 am to 1:07 pm:

  • Topic Pages to Be Hub of New BusinessWeek Site – NYTimes.com – This will be fascinating to watch: "On Business Exchange, a user can post new material to a topic page, or even create a new page, choosing the subject and the title, and write a brief introductory description. This is hardly a revolutionary idea in the wiki era, but for a mainstream publication, it represents a significant loosening of control. (But not too loose — new topics require editorial approval, promised within 24 hours, and objectionable posts will be taken down.)" [via Steve Outing]
  • The Trouble with Twitter – "Don't be surprised to see advertising on Twitter soon. It's about the only way the service can generate revenue. But will it be enough?" I won't be surprised. Believe me.
