The Machine is Us/ing Us

Michael Wesch is a genius! He explains Web 2.0 compellingly and succinctly. Mind you, this is apparently a draft. But one part of the last bit is stretching the point. Rethink love thanks to web 2.0?

I first posted this video here. Props to Ben Koe, whose blog is one of the many that featured this.

UPDATE Just discovered the transcript and the annotatable video version.

  1. Ya, this is pretty good man. And if this is just the beta version, then the final video when it comes out should be quite something :)

    On another note, hang in there with your training ok – RT, gym, running & everything else. Thing is, all of us well know it takes time & patience to see results, but we don’t like to admit that cos we all hope for quicker results. Bloody human nature …… :p

    And hey, maybe now you should consider trying out the Toddycats briskwalks. We live so close & there’s nothing like having good company around when doing these things to make it a lot more bearable & enjoyable. Give it a shot next time & see what you think yeah – you’ll never know till you try, right? :)

  2. And when are you going to start blogging? :P

    Yah, I’m impatient, I’ll give you that. I suppose it’s worse for me in a strange way ‘cos I’ve been alternately fat and thin a few times in my life.

    Briskwalks… can’t… wake… up… that… early…
