When we talk about Web 2.0, it is difficult to explain its scope and possibilities. In a January 18 article I included a contribution on the subject. This video, however, does it with SIght, SOundand MOtion, and therefore, does it much better. The challenge, of course, is to take advantage of all the new resources to connect brands and people, in this era in which the consumer is in charge and it is she who decides.
Mario Morales, thank you for the link. Cheers!
Here is the commentary on YouTube by the author of the video:
This is a slightly revised and cleaned up version of the video that was featured on YouTube in February 2007.
I considered releasing it as an “eternal beta” in true Web 2.0 style, but decided to let it stand as is and start working on future projects. Many of my future videos will address the last 30 seconds of this video (the “rethink …” part).
Thank you all for the helpful comments on the earlier draft. It has been a great experience to connect with so many people interested in
similar issues.

I received many more positive comments than negative about the song choice (great work Deus!), but if you are one of those who does not like the song just download the video and change the audio track to your liking.
The video was created by me (Michael Wesch), working alone from my house in St. George, Kansas. I used CamStudio for the screen captures and Sony Vegas for the panning/cropping/zooming animations. Someday I might make a video tutorial for those who are interested. (more) (less)
