Book Club: Here Comes Everybody

Clay Shirky gave a remarkable talk at a conference I attended this last year.

Here Comes Everybody is his latest book. In the book he discusses how wikis, blogs and other contemporary telecommunications devices are fundamentally changing society.

    Television as a "cognitive heatsink."

    Very apt.

    Patrick:

    His whole thing on cognitive surplus is hilarious and scary at the same time.

    Sounds like an interesting read... Have you read "The World is Flat"? It is, by far, one of the most interesting books I've read.

    [Joel: Yes. Great book!]
