The Web is Us/ing Us – check this video

June 15th, 2009 by Catherine Novak

Oh wow, I think I have found another excellent teacher of web/cultural anthropology topics.  His name is Michael Wesch, and he teaches Digital Ethnography at Kansas State University.  Makes me wish I lived in Kansas.  He’s got a YouTube channel, and I’m going to stay up late and watch EVERYTHING.  Meanwhile, here’s a clip I found on a local blog, The Daily Upload, written by Dave Traynor.  It’s brilliant and thought-provoking.  View and enjoy.

    Glad you liked it Catherine. When I first posted about that amazing video back in 2007, I later came across an interview with Wesch by John Battelle. You can find it at http://battellemedia.com/archives/003386.php.
