Richard Florida on The Colbert Report

What do you know, the author of The Rise of the Creative Class
made it onto Comedy Central.

His book gave me the idea for the name of the blog you're reading.

Actually I was interviewed by Florida back at CMU during the Inktomi days as he worked on his research for the book.

Seems from the Colbert interview that he's not at CMU anymore. He mentions selling his house. I wonder if it was after moving from Pittsburgh.
