5 minute bow to digital ethnography
February 8, 2007
Just saw a five-minute video summation of Web 2.0 on YouTube. It’s one of the nicest “short history of the Web world” pieces I’ve seen to date. The creator manages to make hypertext, XML, and social networking flow together and make perfect sense by using them to make his point.
The video’s by Professor Michael Wresch of Kansas State University, and a group of interested students and faculty there. He does a blog as well.
It’s a tad on the earnest side–you get the feeling this guy is a bit frustrated with trying to get his point across because he’s beating it to death–but it’s definitely worth a watch.
