Ever heard the term Web 2.0 and wondered what the heck it meant? Well, it’s complicated. But it’s simple. It depends on your perspective.
One of Saturday’s presenters, Judith Howard Ellis, showed a video at the end of her presentation. Earlier this year, I’d watched the same video. Loved it. You’ve probably seen it, too. Michael Wesch, Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Kansas State University, created the video to explain Web 2.0. His explanation is fascinating in its simplicity yet profound (and a little flattering) in its far-reaching implications.
But don’t go by me. Click the arrow below to watch “Web 2.0 … The Machine is Us/ing Us.”
Update (11/6): I’m online so much (working, playing, wasting time) that if someone stole my television, I probably wouldn’t notice until I was ready to watch “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.”
About 80 percent of adults go online. Not particularly earth-shattering news, but interesting.
