Michael Wagner at Own Your Brand!, has an amazing pair of posts about how Rick Rubin helped Johnny Cash revitalize his musical brand. Here's an added bonus: A link to watch Cash's video for Hurt, IMO the best music video ever.
Speaking of music, Tricia has a great post about how bands are finding that 'internet hype' might not always be an unknown band's best friend.
Daily Fix update: Joe Jaffe from Jaffe Juice has been added, as has Scott Baradell from Media Orchard. Ms. Community keeps on keepin' on!
New blogs that I am enjoying: No Man's Blog, and Marketing Nirvana. And if you needed further proof of how bad my self-promotional skills are, I was honored to be among Mario's Top 5 Marketing Blogs at #5, where I am #12 in my own list!
Finally, an interesting illustration of how an active blog generates more traffic than your average website. Leigh has a great advertising/marketing/branding blog called AdverGirl. Leigh works for, as she puts it, a 'midwest advertising agency'.
Alexa ranking for Leigh's blog? 242,365.
Alexa ranking for Leigh's agency's website? 2,611,250.
UPDATE: Karl Long has a great recap of the Supernova Conference, which focused on how social media and communities are impacting marketing. Great stuff.
NOTHER UPDATE: Chris adds extremely detailed notes from BloggerCon.

Mack - thanks for highlighting my postings on Johnny and Rick. Very much appreciated!
No problem Michael, they were great!
Mack,
Thanks for the blog-shout-out.
I was thinking aloud on my blog: Maybe we marketing bloggers should have an Annual Bloggers Meet.
An opportunity to meet with fellow marketers as well as brainstorm sessions on the latest & greatest in marketing 2.0.
What you think?
