Clay Shirky on Colbert Report

(via BuzzMachine) comes this video (just under six minutes) of Clay Shirky being interviewed on the Colbert Report talking about Here Comes Everybody.

Good fun for a Friday afternoon.

there is also a really interesting conversation between Clay and Daniel Goleman (author of emotional intelligence) which has just been released by More Than Sound Productions. There are free samples available on their website at http://www.morethansound.net
