Chris Brogan: Books to Buy- Here Comes Everybody - Clay Shirky

  • Jim Lenahan · 1 year ago
    Hey Chris ... I was thinking about picking up this book. How does it compare with "The Wisdom of Crowds"?

    I have been really enjoying this book! I'd recommend it. Seems like it's a natural progression... Cluetrain, Naked Conversations, and this book.

    @Jim - I really love it. It's focused differently than "Wisdom of Crowds" insofar as Surwiecki (sp?) was talking about this like a theory, whereas Clay is pointing out use cases and examples that are forward-thinking and replicable.

    If I could only buy ONE of the two books, that'd be a tough choice, but I think because I like practical things, I'd go with Shirky.

    Brilliant synopsis of what's happening - right now. Features that are important to every individual, every organization, every government, and which can no longer be ignored. Clay lays out the case, example after example, and ties it all together. Highly recommended.
