Nate Silver/Stephen Baker Keynote Conversation pt2: SXSW 09

Earlier this week we posted Part 1 of the 2009 SXSW Interactive Sunday Keynote conversation between Veteran BusinessWeek columnist Stephen Baker and the founder and president of fivethirtyeight.com, Nate Silver. Now you can now catch Part 2 of this topical interview on the SXSW YouTube Channel.

This part of the discussion focuses on the art of forecasting and prediction in general, with a peak into Nate's upcoming book, in which he talks to people from many different fields, from hurricane forecasting and fashion design to search (even the search for extraterrestrial life) for insights into prediction using different types of data sets.
