Dorm Life (if you love [or don't] quarterlife, try this spoof college version. Update: After reading this Media Post piece, reg. required, "spoof" is an inaccurate description. And in other college oriented news, Ypulse College Mashup speaker College Tonight is expanding to 51 additional campuses. College students are also not quite the thieving downloaders the MPAA made them out to be. And applications now being accepted for Clinton U, yes, that's Bill Clinton U)

- Canadian students working out... (with the Wii) (Reuters)

- Police encourage 'narking'... (on stores selling booze to teens and parties where underage drinking is happening via SMS) (Textually)

- The New Yorker on the Megan Meier suicide (and Common Sense Media to establish a Digital Kids Task Force to help educate parents...Let me on!) (News.com)

- Sweet Designs (new online teen zine)

- Young bargain hunters (18-24 year-olds in the UK love finding bargains online) (Tech.co.uk via Next Great Thing)

- MTV Flux no more (the "user-generated" channel it launched in Europe has closed after 16 months) (Paid Content)

- Yo Gabba Gabba (so cool with adult hipsters they're selling clothing at Barney's) (Brand Noise)
