Web 2.0 ... The Machine is Us/ing Us

Final version now available! http://youtube.com/watch?v=NLl... http://mediatedcultures.netWeb... 2.0 in just under 5 minutes.This is the 2nd draft, and I plan on doing one more final draft. Please leave comments on what could be changed or improved, or what needs to be excluded or included. Subscribe if you want to be notified when the revision is released. UPDATE: I just added this video to Mojiti where you can actually write your comments into the video itself. It is an exciting experiment in "Video 2.0". Go check it out at http://mojiti.com/kan/2024/331... and add your voice!Transcripts are now available as well: http://mediatedcultures.net/ks... couple of people have noted that the statement, "XML was created to do just that" (separate form from content) is misleading because CSS enables the same effect with HTML. I tried to integrate CSS into the video, but it ruined the flow. Perhaps in the next draft. My statement on XML is based on the following from xml.com: "In order to appreciate XML, it is important to understand why it was created. XML was created so that richly structured documents could be used over the web. The only viable alternatives, HTML and SGML, are not practical for this purpose. HTML, as we've already discussed, comes bound with a set of semantics and does not provide arbitrary structure."Thank you all for the comments. With your help the next draft will be cleaned up and hopefully free of factual errors.A higher quality version is available for download here: http://www.mediafire.com/?6duz... Please note that this is the second draft and the final version will not be available until late February after I review all comments and revise the video. Please return for a new download link at that time.The song is "There's Nothing Impossible" by Deus, available for free at http://www.jamendo.com/en/albu...

God I love people that know what they're doing with computers. That's almost why Web 2.0 is... not a bad thing, but it definitely will be made a lot more user-friendly, which might make the people that want to edit things' methods all the more complicated.

~Weather you love it or hate it we are it, it's in us, the web.~ I like it I really do but If I wasn't slightly lost I'd be more amazed honestly I stummbled apon this by accident so I might seem out of place but...what was that "about?" it was honest, belivable, creative and for lack of a better term smart sounding hehe but every statement needs a period and I couldn't find one here.

I trying to become an e-tutor and this creative video makes me realize the importance of the Web 2.0

Needing to rethink authorship is a particularly interesting observation, especially with regard to profit. Nearly six a half million people have viewed this video without a dollar's profit going to the author himself..

You've missed the point here
