Second Blog: Web 2.0

The Web 2.0 video is definitely one that is meant to spur ideas about our new technologically advanced world.  In the video there are some interesting topics that the author brings up mainly about how we are "teaching" the machine.  I think that the idea of it (the machine) 'using' us is a little far-fetched because I feel that in the sense that we are more 'using' it.  The 'machine' is/was mainly used for storage purposes, but needless to say we have expanded its capabilities far beyond that.  I feel that we the proper use of the 'machine' we are much more connected to other people around the world.  This causes and will cause people in the work force to make sure they stay up to date with such technology and opportunities.  As we look at technology we have seen in the past the older people get the more they fall behind on such technological advantages; but, I feel that as important such technology is in our world today such an age gap decrease significantly.  All together I feel like the importance of the video is to spur thought, but to take what one professor creates in a video to the grave would be a misconception of the video in a whole.
