Final version now available!

Web 2.0 in just under 5 minutes.
This is the 2nd draft, and I plan on doing one more final draft. Please leave comments on what could be changed or improved, or what needs to be excluded or included. Subscribe if you want to be notified when the revision is released.
UPDATE: I just added this video to Mojiti where you can actually write your comments into the video itself. It is an exciting experiment in “Video 2.0″. Go check it out at http://mojiti.com/kan/2024/3313 and add your voice!
Transcripts are now available as well:

A couple of people have noted that the statement, “XML was created to do just that” (separate form from content) is misleading because CSS enables the same effect with HTML. I tried to integrate CSS into the video, but it ruined the flow. Perhaps in the next draft.
My statement on XML is based on the following from xml.com: “In order to appreciate XML, it is important to understand why it was created. XML was created so that richly structured documents could be used over the web. The only viable alternatives, HTML and SGML, are not practical for this purpose. HTML, as we’ve already discussed, comes bound with a set of semantics and does not provide arbitrary structure.”
Thank you all for the comments. With your help the next draft will be cleaned up and hopefully free of factual errors.
A higher quality version is available for download here: http://www.mediafire.com/?6duzg3zioyd Please note that this is the second draft and the final version will not be available until late February after I review all comments and revise the video. Please return for a new download link at that time.
The song is “There’s Nothing Impossible” by Deus, available for free at http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/103/

Web 2.0 doesn’t exist, it’s just marketing.
I hate when somenone use this term.
And there’s nothing “new” on this video, just like there’s nothing new in “web 2.0″.

that was a real treat, nice one.
dunno if you’re interested in philosophy at all but if so collective consciousness (like of an ant colony or of all the individual cells of a human brain) applies very interestingly to the internet.
