The Machine is Us/ing Us
Via my esteemed colleague Ed Murphy, here is a video on web 2.0 by Michael Wesch, an Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Kansas State University. I’m sure this is getting rapid viral dissemination throughout the noosphere, but I find it so compelling I just have to join the blog storm. What I find so interesting isn’t necessarily the concepts (they are important, but we’ve been talking about these things for years) but the presentation. Leave it to the anthropologists to make web 2.0 concepts accessible to the masses.
