Cory Doctorow on Life in the Information Economy

One of my side-projects is running a series of talks in Cambridge, UK. A couple of weeks ago Cory Doctorow (the editor of Boing Boing) gave the inaugural talk. According to Cory, we made a bet, some decades ago, that the information economy would be based on buying and selling information. We were totally, 100 percent wrong.

Cory is a great speaker: articulate, amusing and thought-provoking. If you're at all interested in copyright, DRM or piracy then here's the video:
