16 minutes long, but worth it. He talks about how even the creation of "lolcats" macros is something worth doing.

Thanks for the link! Great food for thought on a Saturday morning.

 

I got me thinking about what will humanity become when we finally begin to put the cognitive surplus to its full use...

A great piece from the clip is when he's describing people's time spent online dping things like updating Wikipedia. He rails on the question "Where do these people get all the time?", coming from someone in the tv business.

 

Is there a bigger waste of one's time than television?

I'm of the belief that TV is much like food, one needs to moderate their intake and be very careful as to what they ingest.
