Good book – “Here Comes Everybody” by Clay Shirky

Posted by Tim Cole on August 4th, 2008

Have been enjoying this book Here Comes Every Body, Clay Shirky. It is well written, entertaining, and easy to read, and offers some real insights without being overly analytical (I can’t get on with those kind of books).

It is the kind of book you can dip into and go “oh, yeah” as he helps make a neural connection or two (the “Birthday Paradox” group dynamic being an example).

I have not yet got to the end (too many other things to do), but I recommend it and I will persevere with it (whereas I am finding Groundswell much more empirical and heavy going, even though still interesting).
