After I spoke with Howard for my podcast, he invited me onto his own show which is broadcast on Manhattan Neighborhood Network local access cable television. Since I started working on Silicon & Charybdis I’ve been neck-deep in studying the works of Marshall McLuhan and trying to apply them to computers. I’ve found a few friends in the McLuhan scene since, many of which have been on Conversations in the past, so I am honoured to do so in kind. It was a pleasure to share some of my thinking on computers as a medium and their role in society and current events. I look forward to many more such occasions, with Harold or anyone else!

Erratum: The Vanity Fair article that I mention actually came out in 2009.
