Interview - Clay Shirky Thursday Apr 3 2008 | Episode: #04043
Clay Shirky encourages the Colbert Nation to do something interesting with Doritos bags.
[text from Comedy Central website]
The talk is entertaining, but ultimately frustrating, since Shirky's own message is almost completely overwhelmed by the Colbert phenomenon. But that, too, might be a message about the medium. Nonetheless, Shirky manages to keep from getting ruffled (though see links below for more discussion). For a more substantive discussion with Shirky, see
Video talk with Clay Shirky on how groups use the internet.
REACTION:
BoingBoing: Shirky is good (has further links).
O'Reilly Radar: Shirky is bad (see especially the discussion in the comments).
