Jeff Jarvis Bares His Public Parts.
As the wise pundit of TWiT network’s This Week in Google (TWiG), Jeff Jervis adds an amazing non-technical insight into the world of “Google and the cloud”. Jarvis provokes discussion, introduces insightful topics and does it all with a disarming self-consciousness.
He’s released a fantastic book, What Would Google Do?, that tries to understand the machinations behind Google’s success and how these ideas may just be applicable to other modern day industries.
In 2009 Jeff announced that he was fighting the Big-C, prostate cancer. As a result of his survival he’s influenced his audience to at least be aware of the disease and that a prostate check is vital for all of us fellas. This experience has, for obvious reasons, changed his life and subsequently given the title of his new book a multi-level spin (after he openly spoke about some manly issues he was having post-surgery).
Now comes his “Public Parts” or “How sharing in the digital age improves the way we work and live”. This will be out around the 27th September 2011 and I have to say that I can’t wait to have a read. His take on why digital “publicness” can improve work and life will be intriguing considering the advent of increased privacy on both the Facebook and Google+ platforms along with the rise and rise of “cyber” crime.
Let us know your thoughts on both of his reads.
