iPod ad placement ("the golden touch" for marketing new artists. Maybe the music industry should focus more on this instead of wasting millions on lawsuits...) (Medill Reports) (Boing Boing)

- Note to Justin Timberlake: Music videos live! (online...) (L.A. Times, reg. required)

- Holy Hannah Montana tix ("venues have sold out in as little as four minutes and scalpers are getting four to five times the face value") (Yahoo! Music)

- The other Spears (just in case you were wondering what's up with Jamie Lynn) (Newsweek)

- Here's my card...and my MySpace address (this was a little item in an Entrepreneur story on the new business cards: "high-school age teens venture into Staples to create social networking cards that include information like Facebook and MySpace links")

- Hug O' War? (I somehow missed the tween hugging trend clogging the halls of middle schools) (Wednesday Journal)

- NoStankYou (T-shirts!) (AdRants)

- Lifecasting (it's funny, I sat by Justin at the Microsoft Social Media Symposium...where I'm sure I was recorded asking him for tech support. It's reality TV times 10) (L.A. Times, reg. required)

- 'Kid Nation' leaving this nation? (rumor has it the controversial CBS show is looking abroad to shoot season 2. No pesky child labor laws...) (TMZ)
