Jenkins Internet Librarian Quoted

Dan on the radioDan Giancaterino’s Internet expertise has once again been called upon by Michael Smerconish. Usually Dan is a call-in guest to his talk show, but this time Michael wanted a response to the Inquirer Currents column he was writing comparing two very different (and popular) YouTube videos: the farewell lecture by a college professor who’s dying of cancer, and an online rant by a woman about her ex.

YouTube has made it is so easy for me to do this. . . . But for every Randy Pausch, there’s a hundred Tricia Walsh-Smiths,” said Jenkins Law Internet Librarian Dan Giancaterino.
