Web 2.0 explained in video: Teaching the Machine.

Michael Wesch, Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at the Kansas State University created a 4 and a half minute clip explaining the core concepts of "web 2.0".

This is just beautiful; explaining a concept in less than 5 minutes, with an approach based on text and image & a superb soundtrack. (from Deus a Belgian band !).

And as if that's not enough, you can comment right on the clip and download the song from Deus for free. Again 2 examples of how the web today is about sharing, collaboration and creativity.

I don't think we're talking dEUS here. It's a bit too run-off-the-mill-synthesiser blah to be sprouting from the Barman's Brain...

Thanks for pointing this out Sparehed ! Mea culpa and ignorance...

Hey, thank you for posting this info. It really helped me know a lot about Web 2.0. I've recommended it to some of my friends too. Cool video. No wonder they say, a picture is a 1000 words. Anyway, kudos, Philippe !!
