This very cool video (see below) is starts with a pencil and gets mentally to Web 2.0. It’s always a little hard to find sources which will explain complex concepts to non-techies, but if anyone has a grandparent or parent who is interested in an overview of Web 2.0, or even just of the possibilities of the Internet (when not being a series of tubes) this might be the video for them. It’s by Michael Wesch, Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Kansas State University who seems to be a specialist in Digital Ethnography. Cool stuff!
