For those interested in hearing a conversation, the first of a new Penguin Salon series, about two seemingly competing ideas about connectivity in the digital age, Eric Klineberg and Clay Shirky will be speaking at 192 Books in Chelsea on February 7, 2012, 7:00 – 9:00 PM.

I hope some of my students from fall’s New Technologies class can attend. RSVPs are required.

The Penguin Press Presents: Together Alone: “The Penguin Press Presents celebrated public intellectual Eric Klinenberg, author of the forthcoming Going Solo: The Extraordinary Rise and Surprising Appeal of Living Alone, and Clay Shirky, author of the seminal Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations, coming together to discuss what it all means and where we’re all heading.”
