John Hodgman is a very funny man.

The writer and humorist is a sometime contributor to the public radio show This American Life and cable television’s The Daily Show.

Currently, he is getting even more TV exposure in an ad campaign for Apple computers, in which he plays a tweedy, lumpy and awkward PC opposite a relaxed, cool, slim young man, who is a Mac.

Hodgman is also author of The Areas of My Expertise — an almanac of random, fascinating and utterly unreliable information — which is coming out in paperback.
