Online text, how the Web works, and how formatting developed

Here's a clip I found on YouTube called “Web 2.0 - The Machine is Us/ing Us”, nteresting submission mixing aesthetics, concepts, simpler ideas, and basic information about how the Web works (especially online text). It could be part of a Media Literacy unit. I watched a Middle Years student of mine teach us how to use basic HTML last year; this video would have furthered a fruitful class discussion afterward.

Chris,
Taking me back to html was just scary. I hate that stuff. It wasn't until the computer geeks brought in WUSIWYG that I started to experiment more with technology.
