Going Social – Grown Up Digital

A couple quick interviews…and two terrific books.  The first from Don Tapscott is “Grown Up Digital” and follows a title from ‘97 called “Growing Up Digital”.  In a nutshell, it’s a discussion that details a growing segment of the population that treats technology the same regard boomers treat a telelphone.  The interview is long (almost half an hour) but offers the thoughts and views of a leading business strategist.

The second is from Charlene Li, arguably one of the planet’s authorities on leveraging social networks.  The video is a presentation made at Google in Mountain View CA and follows the release of her book, “Groundswell: Winning in a World Transformed by Social Technologies”.
