The Machine is Us/ing Us

If you haven't seen this one yet, it's definitely worth a look. This is why YouTube deserves to live, even if it proves Sturgeon's Law (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturgeon's_law . I find it interesting that it's used as an example of Pareto, father of the Long Tail. But that's the subject for another post).

I had hoped to use this for the introduction to a class for the summer, but alas, the MLS program I teach for is struggling its way into the 19th century, after a brave start with streaming video in 2000. Entropy works!
