Walter Isaacson continued his promotional tour of his Steve Jobs biography yesterday, appearing on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night. In the seven minute interview, Isaacson "talks about becoming emotionally invested in his subject throughout the course of writing Steve Jobs' biography."

It was Isaacson's fifth appearance on The Daily Show.

Yep, so either install it on your computer and watch it, or if you have a device that doesn't have that basic functionality, find one that does if you want to see it.
