Getting Shirky on camera

October 1, 2008 By 2 Comments

Excuse the bad pun, but friend and colleague Dave Cushman has started posting a series of videos from an interview with Clay Shirky (author of Here Comes Everybody).

Well worth watching.

And if you need another reason, Clay’s still holding the number 2 spot on the infamous ‘Rock Stars of Web 2.0‘ list on Ditto.net.

    Interesting analysis. My understanding is that the breakdown is largely due to two things

    a) cheap teaser rates that shoot up later in ways not obvious when you sign up

    b) the onselling of the mortgages in a way sometimes 30x over so no one is working with the borrower anymore.

    I’ve got the link to Harvard profs on my blog. 1:36hours but good.
