I feel as if I have been looking at the Know More Media network with fresh eyes this week. So much to read, so much great content. I know I say that all the time, but I like to be a critic so it must be true. Here's a look at what I have been reading this week.

Dr. Ellen Weber forced me to take pause with her discussion on LeaderNotes about how to manage smart people. You would think they'd be the easiest to manage, but it seems that the research says otherwise. Dr. Weber had some two-footed questions to help reprogram those talented minds.

Another LeaderNotes contributor, Malcolm Munro, offered a new twist on personal transformation by telling readers how to "Flip That Person." Check out his tips for how to do some introspective remodeling.

TheAlphaMarketer Gary Bourgeault discussed why YouTube is not a new model in television, reflecting on when TV was still in its infancy. The author also published an interesting series on why portals are still growing ad revenue and examined YouTube's slowing growth.

Fard Johnmar, author of HealthCareVox, showed readers the meaning of full disclosure with his comments about the Johnson & Johnson blogger dinner. He pointed out a few marked differences between his form of citizen journalism and that of traditional journalists. Unlike traditional news-gatherers, he does not have to borrow authority because he writes from and about his expertise. For this same reason, he feels no qualms about letting J & J pick up the tab if they want to spend the night picking his brain.
