Back in November, I had the honor of speaking at TEDxEast, along with author Suzy Welch, Scott Heiferman of Meetup, Paul White of Transportation Alternatives, and Perry Chen of Kickstarter.
My talk was ‘News Evolves: The Real-Time Fourth Estate,’ and I argued that despite the panic in the media industry, we are entering a Golden Age in the information economy. Most importantly, with an empowered and informed public, our democracy is healthier than ever thanks to tools like Facebook, Twitter and GroundReport. Watch to find out why.
Big thanks go to Cody Brown for permitting me to use his brilliant graphics from A Public Can Talk To Itself.
