Clay Shirky: “When we change the way we communicate, we change society.”

Harold Jarche reviews Clay Shirky’s new book Here Comes Everybody:

It’s when a technology becomes normal, then ubiquitous, and finally so pervasive as to be invisible, that the really profound changes happen, and for young people today, our new social tools have passed normal and are heading to ubiquitous, and invisible is coming. (p. 105)
