Clay Shirky’s Social and Cognitive Surplus
Through a link on the Twitter-sphere, I found Clay Shirky speaking on what he purports may be the biggest social change since the Industrial Revolution, and we are in the midst of it right now. Not recommended for the cognitive deficient.
What do you think?

Yeah, this was very interesting. Shirky has a site that his essays are on. I plan visiting and reading what he has to say.

But there is only one thing you need to know:) This is a thought provoking clip. It made me think about the stars in the sky, the value of time, monetary vs nonmonetary value, carbon (im not sure the name of it….when you have to pay to light a fire, and before it was free) and good guys vs bad guys.
