Jan Chipchase Responds To Clay Shirky About Micro-Payments
The Nokia researcher Jan Chipchase makes a simple reaction to Clay Shirky’s recent thought piece on the newspaper industry where he suggests that micro-payments don’t work:
“One re-occurring lesson from our emerging markets research is that one person’s micro-payment is another person’s payment it’s just a matter of scale and context. You can nearly always find someone who situation means that they are willing to take on a job for less, or take a tiny part of the job for the same – with a social infrastructure there to support it.”
