My favorite blog articles that I read today, Friday, August 21, 2009:

1. User Community And ROI by Passionate. I have often been asked what the return on investment (ROI) is for social media and user communities in general are. This article provides some good insight. Although the discussion has some good points – it is a bit lengthy. The two graphs provide a great summary of the content.

2. Fortune 100 Companies Embracing Social Media; Especially Twitter by The Viral Garden. It looks as if the adoption of social media is growing, especially among larger companies. Also provides some good criteria of who should use social media.

3. How Can Anyone Follow 10,000 Or More? by Scobleizer. A good argument for limiting the number of people you follow on Twitter. However, I did find the tips on how to follow more people to be a bit contradictory to the theme of the article!
