In this video interview, Zittrain shares his ideas on human computing with Ideas Project, a new website brought to you by Nokia. Ideas Project is an online space that provides a new way to interact with thought leaders and their big ideas about the future of connected communications.

An internationally known cyberlaw scholar, Jonathan Zittrain's work focuses on the ways in which technology deployment impacts businesses and society, and the role intermediaries like national governments can play. His recent book, 'The Future of the Internet -- And How to Stop It,' posits that the explosive growth of the Internet may prove to be its biggest drawback. He co-founded the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard Law School, whose mission is to explore and understand cyberspace from a legal perspective. Previously he was Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation at Oxford University. He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and a Forum Fellow of the World Economic Forum, which has named him a Young Global Leader.
