ClayShirky

I found this video very hard to understand. Clay talked about the idea that cognitive surplus will change the world, but he did not explain that well. He skipped around a lot with examples of LOL Cats and Ushahidi, the online site about Haiti, but these two did not make sense and he did not illustrate how they backed up his opinion. Clay mostly illustrated to me how not to explain yourself, especially with as complicated of an idea as he chose. His presentation style is a good style, he is not lecturing too hard, but he needs to put his theme into simpler words so people can fully grasp what he is saying. None of his video really related to me, but it related to the world through his examples of Ushahidi and LOL Cats.
