The clever guys at the digital ethnography working group (a team of cultural anthropology undergraduates at kansas state university) have put together a neat little video Web 2.0 in just under 5 minutes.
Michael Wesch says "I was inspired to make this video while writing a paper about web 2.0. Struggling to find a way to put it into words, I decided to make this video to show ...

This one came in the mailbox, the post_mail_box, of course. Mediagalaxy included this cutie in their latest advertisement paper.
